Ms. Tomer Rosen-Grace Harduf 1793000, D.N. Hamovil [email protected] Last Update: October 2016 Tomer Rosen Grace, Translator, Copy editor & Proofreader CV, Anthroposophical and other Translation Projects, and relevant work experience Name: Tomer Yasmin Rosen Grace Born: 12 September 1968, Mother of 2. Currently living in Harduf Anthroposophic Community in the North of Israel. Over the past 25 years I have translated 15 books as well as articles from English and German into Hebrew, mostly in the areas of literature, Jewish and New Age spirituality, Anthroposophy, self help, parenting, couples help and new age psychology & channelling. Recently I also translated an 300-page autobiography from Hebrew into English. I have also written, illustrated and self-published 12 children's books in Hebrew to-date, with more intended in near future. The first of them I also translated into English and published on Amazon July 2015. Part of my expertise lies in presenting a well written translated text, i.e. I always edit my own text for accuracy and style, making sure each dot lies in its rightful place. In addition to translating, I also take editing and proof-reading works in Hebrew, concentrating on polishing-up the text in terms of style and spelling/punctuation, rather than re-writing it. Punctuation in Hebrew (Nikkud) is another skill I offer, as well as editing already-translated work from German or English, including comparing the translation to the original and correcting it as necessary.

Understanding Young Children
UNDERSTANDING YOUNG CmLDREN EXCERPTS FROM LECTURES BY RUDOLF STEINER COMPILED FOR TIlE USE OF KINDERGARTEN TEACHERS Published by the International Association of Waldorfkindergartens, Stuttgart, 1975 Reprinted 1994 by the Waldorf Kindergarten Association of North America, Inc. Copies available from the Waldorf Kindergarten Association 1359 Alderton Lane SHver Spring, MD 20906 (301) 460-6287 Permission to duplicate these excerpts has been given by: The Rudolf Steiner NachlaBverwaltung, the Library of the Anthroposophical Society in Great Britain and the Rudolf Steiner Press, London INTRODUCTION 1bB book is meant to be a help for those working in Kindergartens founded on the educational prila;iples of Rudolf Steiner. All the parents of little children, students and friends of Waldorf Education who are interested in a deeper understanding of child development will find in this book guide lines for The Study oj Man. It was Elizabeth Grunelius who first suggested compiling the following excerpts from Rudolf Steiner's books and lectures. Already in the early twenties she asked Rudolf Steiner for suggestions on pre-school education, and founded the very first Waldorf Kindergarten in Stuttgart. We are happy to publish this collection in time for the 50th anniversary of Waldorf education in England. It is advisable to read the quoted passages in the context of the whole lecture. Unfortunately some of Rudolf Steiner's lectures on education have not yet been translated. The books and lectures we quote have all been translated into English. Other books about the education of the child are: • Francis Edmunds, Rudolf Steiner Education: The Waldorf Schools, Rudolf Steiner College Press and Rudolf Steiner Press. -

Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin, Architects of Anthroposophy
Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin, Architects of Anthroposophy Dr John Paull [email protected] A century ago, on the 23rd of May 1912, the winning design of Canberra was announced. Soon after, two talented Chicago architects set sail for Australia. Their plan for Australia’s national capital, already named Canberra but at the time merely an empty paddock, had won first prize in an international competition which attracted 137 entries. The winning prize money for the design was a modest £1750 (McGregor, 2009). Walter Burley Griffin (1876-1937) and Marion Mahony (1871-1961) were married in the year preceding the win. Marion had nagged Walter to enter the competition, “What’s the use of thinking about a thing like this for ten years if when the time comes you don’t get it done in time!” She pointed out the practicalities: “Perhaps you can design a city in two days but the drawings take time and that falls on me” (Griffin, 1949, volume IV p.294). After the win was announced, Walter declared: “I have planned it not in a way that I expected any government in the world would accept. I have planned an ideal city - a city that meets my ideal of a city of the future” (New York Times, 1912). Marion chronicled events of their life together in a typewritten four- volume memoir of over 1600 pages (Griffin, 1949). Her memoir documents their life together and liberally reproduces personal correspondence between them and their associates. Her unpublished manuscript reveals the intensity with which she and Walter embraced the thoughts of Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) and anthroposophy. -

Goetheanum, Dornach, Switzerland
1 2 3 GOETHEANUM, DORNACH, SWITZERLAND PROJECT. The Goetheanum in Dornach near Basel in Switzerland is the international center of the anthroposophical movement. Named after Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the building houses two halls (seating 1,000 and 500, respectively), exhibition and lecture rooms, a library, a bookshop as well as administrative rooms of the Anthro- posophical Society. The Society‘s research and education facilites are located in the neighboring buildings. The first Goetheanum, designed by Rudolf Steiner between 1908 and 1925, was a timber and concrete construction which was destroyed by arson on New Year‘s Eve 1922/23. In the course of the year 1923, Steiner designed a new building en- tirely made of reinforced concrete – nowadays known as the Second Goetheanum. Construction works began in 1924; however, the buil- ding was not completed until 1928, after the architect‘s death. ACOUSTICS. In the large auditorium of the Goetheanum, perfor- 5 mances of the in-house theater and eurythmy groups as well as of visiting artists from around the world take place. During the comprehensive refurbishment, an interdisciplinary team – CLIENT consisting of sculptors, architects, acousticians and the very commit- General Anthroposophical Society Goetheanum, Dornach ted client – in a very considerate way integrated all necessary room acoustical measures into the historic structure.

Chapter 1 Waldorf Teacher Education
Chapter 1 Waldorf Teacher Education: Methodology of the Study Section 1 Introduction 1. Background information The primary focus of most of the literature on Steiner or Waldorf Education ~ whether couched in ways variously intending to theorise, compare, inform, expound, or extol ~ has been on the question of how children (whether of early childhood, primary or high school years) should be educated. The main aim of this thesis is to explore the question of how Waldorf teachers should be educated. In order to begin to tackle this seemingly straightforward question it seemed logical to begin at the beginning, that is, with the theory underlying what Waldorf teachers were being educated for. Steiner’s educational theory is explicit in maintaining that education is about facilitating the process of becoming more human. But aren’t we human enough already? What does it mean to become more human? How are human beings (for so long referred to as ‘Man’) constituted? What is ‘Man’? In some ways the trend of the questioning is reminiscent of, and inevitably leads to, the Classical Greek injunction “O Man. Know Thyself”1. It was in contemplating these questions that the realisation came of what the underlying core of the thesis would be. Something had to be said about what Steiner believed the human being to be, and therefore how the education of the human being should proceed. More specifically still, how the teachers who were to implement the 1 This injunction was engraved above the portal of the temple of Apollo at Delphi. 2 educational ideas would themselves be educated. -
