Harry Collison, MA – Kingston University Working Paper ______
Harry Collison, MA – Kingston University Working Paper __________________________________________________________________________________________ HARRY COLLISON, MA (1868-1945): Soldier, Barrister, Artist, Freemason, Liveryman, Translator and Anthroposophist Sir James Stubbs, when answering a question in 1995 about Harry Collison, whom he had known personally, described him as a dilettante. By this he did not mean someone who took a casual interest in subjects, the modern usage of the term, but someone who enjoys the arts and takes them seriously, its more traditional use. This was certainly true of Collison, who studied art professionally and was an accomplished portraitist and painter of landscapes, but he never had to rely on art for his livelihood. Moreover, he had come to art after periods in the militia and as a barrister and he had once had ambitions of becoming a diplomat. This is his story.1 Collisons in Norfolk, London and South Africa Originally from the area around Tittleshall in Norfolk, where they had evangelical leanings, the Collison family had a pedigree dating back to at least the fourteenth century. They had been merchants in the City of London since the later years of the eighteenth century, latterly as linen drapers. Nicholas Cobb Collison (1758-1841), Harry’s grandfather, appeared as a witness in a case at the Old Bailey in 1800, after the theft of material from his shop at 57 Gracechurch Street. Francis (1795-1876) and John (1790-1863), two of the children of Nicholas and his wife, Elizabeth, née Stoughton (1764-1847), went to the Cape Colony in 1815 and became noted wine producers.2 Francis Collison received the prize for the best brandy at the first Cape of Good Hope Agricultural Society competition in 1833 and, for many years afterwards, Collison was a well- known name in the brandy industry.

Albert Steffen, the Poet Marie Steiner 34 a Selection of Poems 38 Little Myths Albert Steffen 51
ALBERT STEFFEN CENTENNIAL ISSUE NUMBER 39 AUTUMN, 1984 ISSN 0021-8235 . Albert Steffen does not need to learn the way into the spiritual world from Anthroposophy. But from him Anthroposophy can come to know of a living “Pilgrimage ” — as an innate predisposition o f the soul — to the world of spirit. Such a poet-spirit must, if he is rightly understood, be recognized within the anthroposophical movement as the bearer o f a message from the spirit realm. It must indeed be felt as a good destiny that he wishes to work within this movement. H e adds, to the evidence which Anthroposophy can give of the truth inherent within it, that which works within a creative personality as spirit-bearer like the light of this truth itself.

Peter Selg El Misterio De La Tierra
Peter Selg El Misterio de la Tierra https://dasgoetheanum.com/schwerpunkte/2020/3/27/das-mysterium-der-erde La pandemia del Coronavirus no surge de la nada. Una manera de interpretarla es ver en ella la respuesta de la Naturaleza a la falta de conciencia ecológica en la sociedad moderna. Es una llamada de la Tierra pidiendo un cambio. Hay científicos con sentido de responsabilidad que reconocen que esto es así, al igual que se puede comprobar mediante las indicaciones dadas por Rudolf Steiner. ________________________________________ En la edición de marzo de la revista ‹Monde diplomatique›, la periodista científica estadounidense Sonia Shah, autora del libro "Pandemic: Tracking Contagions, from Cholera to Ebola and Beyond" (Pandemia: Rastreando los contagios, desde el cólera hasta el Ébola y más allá , Nueva York 2015(1)), escribió un notable artículo titulado "¿De dónde viene el coronavirus? Se trata, dice la autora, de "reconocer que nuestra creciente vulnerabilidad frente a las pandemias tiene una causa más profunda: la destrucción cada vez más rápida de los hábitats". En su contribución, Shah informa sobre los patógenos de los siglos XX y XXI que han surgido en gran número, desde el VIH y el Ébola hasta los coronavirus, y describe las circunstancias de estos acontecimientos. Describe cómo muchas especies abandonan sus hábitats destruidos y se acercan a los asentamientos humanos, transmitiendo los patógenos ("El Ébola es un buen ejemplo. Se han identificado varias especies de murciélagos como transmisores del virus. Un estudio realizado en 2017 mostró que los brotes del virus eran más frecuentes en las zonas de África central y occidental donde recientemente se habían talado bosques en gran escala.

Theodora's Prophetic Revelation
David W. Wood Theodora’s Prophetic Revelation The Open Biographical Secrets of Rudolf Steiner’s Drama Characters, Part II The present text is a continuation of the research approach followed in our earlier article “The Course of Dr. Strader’s Life”. It seeks to uncover the identity of the real-life historical personality behind Rudolf Steiner’s drama character of the seeress Theodora.1 This character is in turn a metamorphosis of the figure of the Hawk in Goethe’s Fairy Tale. Both Theodora and the Hawk unite in themselves two events: they reflect the final glow of a past epoch before catching the first rays of a newly dawning day. Spiritual Realism Steiner’s very first idea for a theatre play in Munich in the summer of 1910 was not to perform a mystery drama of his own composition, but a dramatized version of Goethe’s Fairy Tale of the Green Snake and Beautiful Lily. However, the project ran into difficulties. The fairy tale images that were suitable for Goethe’s epoch had to be metamorphosed and rendered more realistic in Steiner’s time: “It did not work. One had to conceive it in a much more realistic manner. And out of this there arose the Portal of Initiation. It is obvious: during Goethe’s time the epoch had not yet arrived in which one could carry over what could be seized in fine fairy tale images into the real figures that are in the Portal of Initiation.”2 Steiner designated the art of this first drama as “spiritual realism”, because it sought to depict in an artistic manner real spiritual experiences: “It is carried out with a certain aesthetic feeling, everything in it is spiritual-realistic.
