Appeal for Steiner letters

Appeal for Steiner letters

The Rudolf Steiner Archives are looking for letters and similar documents by Rudolf Steiner for a new complete edition.


The Rudolf Steiner Archives in Dornach (ch) are looking into publishing a complete new edition of Rudolf Steiner’s letters (GA 38) as part of a project called Complete Works 2025 (Gesamtausgabe 2025). It is assumed that Rudolf Steiner wrote many more letters than the approximately 2200 specimens held in the Archives at present. They are therefore looking for letters or similar epistolary material such as memos, postcards, telegrams, verses, dedications in books etc that might be owned privately or by institutions.


Again and again, letters are discovered in private estates that give important insights into Rudolf Steiner’s biography and work and should not be left unconsidered. We would therefore ask all those individuals and institutions who have access to such letters or documents to let us have a copy of them. Please also let us know if you know of someone who might have such documents.
