The following collection of essays could have had as a subtitle "Towards a New Sophiology". Essays 3, 4, 5, and 8 bear directly on this subject. Apart from the final essay, "Valentin Tomberg and Dostoevski", all the other essays presented here appeared (in this same order) as articles in the 'Starlight Journal' of the Sophia Foundation of North America over the years 2014-2019. The production of these articles took place during the period that immediately followed the publication of OMearas book, "The Way of Novalis", and should be seen as an outgrowth from the Sophianic direction of that book. In these essays, slightly expanded from the articles, OMeara elaborates on the Sophianic mission of the Foundation with reference to the main Master-Individualities to whom the Foundation has linked itself, notably Rudolf Steiner, Valentin Tomberg, Novalis (Friedrich von Hardenberg), as well as the Master Peter Deunov. However, other well-known individuals are also considered in some depth, including Vladimir Solovyov, Pavel Florensky, Sergius Bulgakov, Fyodor Dostoevski, Carl Jung, as well as some of the Master-artists of the Renaissance, most notably Michelangelo and da Vinci. Estelle Isaacson and Ita Wegman also assume a significant role in this collection. How to put our arms around the demands being made on us with respect to our spiritual evolution now and in the future may be said to have been the main purpose of this series of essays.
