HOLY NIGHTS CONFERENCE

at

Camphill Community Ballytobin

on

4 and 5 January 2008

A series of talks and discussions examining the deeper historical challenges facing Europe in the 21st century

In March 1925, the last month of his life, in a conversation about the true tasks and possibilities of Europe, and the forces of opposition to these, Rudolf Steiner named three problems, or questions, that urgently needed 'solving':

"The queston of the two Johns

Where did Kaspar Hauser come from?

Who was Dmitri?"

It is these three questions which we intend to discuss during the conference.
