The letters in the first part of this volume record that Rudolf Steiner was asked to give esoteric instruction immediately upon his appointment as General Secretary of the German Section of the Esoteric School of Theosophy in 1902. Soon afterward, he was appointed Arch-Warden in Germany and the Austrian Empire, with "full authority to call meetings of the school, to organize groups and appoint wardens, and to do all that was necessary for the welfare of the school."
