Description:
<jats:p>Just before the outbreak of World War 1, a group of writers, artists and philosophers decided to establish a spiritual rule over Europe, the Forte Kreis. The group aimed at a reconciliation in Europe, by establishing pacifism, but also between East and West by creating a new language. Their thoughts have been documented a several archives in Europe.

The need for a supra-national spiritual guidance seems as relevant today as it was hundred years ago.</jats:p>
