Solzhenitsyn's Not only Letter does itto pose—whether Soviet Leaders it is should heeded not at all or not—a great, reasoned question to the rulers of Russia; but at moments it looks, with a detachment we should value, at the situation in the West: The catastrophic weakening of the western world and the whole of western civilisation is by no means due solely to the success of an irresistible, persistent Soviet foreign policy. It is, rather, the result of an historical, psychological and moral crisis afiTecting the entire culture and world outlook which were conceived at the time of the Renaissance and attained the acme of their expression with the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. And Solzhenitsyn adds: " An analysis of that crisis is beyond the Anthroposophy springs from the work and teaching of Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925). He spoke of it as " a path of knowledge, to scope of this letter." Later, nevertheless, he ventures on something like a prophecy. He has been saying that mankind will have to give guide the spiritual in the human being to the spiritual in the up the ideal of economic growth and adapt itself to the technology universe of a stable economy within the next twenty or thirty years, or the biosphere will become unfit for life. And we must begin this trans The aim of this Annual is to bring the outlook of Anthroposophy formation at once.

It is so dynamic and so inventive that it will ride out present time. even this impending crisis, will break up all its age-old assumptions and in a few years set about the necessary reconstruction. The title derives from a reference by Rudolf Steiner to an old We are still very far from understanding this deeply enough. Persian legend.

It represents a force given to man What was lost in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries was the living, spiritual picture of man which the soul needs. " Humanism " whereby he can act upon and transform external nature ". arose as the search for this lost picture, or for one that could replace it. " One does not aspire to humanism because one has man, but be cause one has lost him." (Rudolf Steiner, The Michael Mystery^ 30 November, 1924). The search led back to the Greeks, and later on, in the nineteenth century, to the wisdom of the East; but pictures brought from the past did not fill the need.

And twentieth-century on a great scale in the study of nature; Goethe's work on light and man has still not understood why this does not happen. colour—described here by Michael Wilson—is a rare success. Rightly, we seek objectivity. But we make a great mistake about There are two sorts of objectivity we can recognise: a one-sided this: we identify objectivity with a limited use of the senses and of sort, which in the end proves misleading, and one that is achieved thinking. The great, new, enormously successful ideas about the much more slowly but is much more complete. The first brings the material world are indeed achieved with the help of this limitation; human spirit into subjection beneath the being called, in anthiopo- but man himself cannot be understood in this way. " It is not enough sophical cosmology, Ahriman—though man remains unconscious to be able to think this distinction; we need to admit it deeply into of this subjection. The second leads to a conscious understanding our hearts. In ordinary life, after all, we can notice at every step of the Christ. For thoughts which take full account of the reality our failure to understand one another; quite practically, we fail to and freedom of the human soul are thoughts in which man meets use all our senses well enough, and fail to develop our thinking to with Christ. grasp what we observe. But again, it is not enough to accept In every field of human knowledge and activity we need such this in a general way; we need to look quite specifically at the senses thoughts. Dr. Georg Unger shows here how thoroughly modem we have, and at those beyond them which can be developed. cosmology is permeated by Ahriman—and by really powerful Perhaps even those long concerned with the work of Rudolf "Luciferic" elements. A thorough-going restoration of health in Steiner have done this too little. We have not realised enough cosmology can be achieved only when a conception of space is that what he says about the twelve senses of man is not just an worked out in accord with the life of the soul. Ahriman teaches interesting study, but has far-reaching social and moral consequences; his concept of space—an emptiness which he nevertheless presents in particular his description of those senses which are little as the abiding reality.

    Chronologically Lewis Joel D. Heck All notes are done in the present tense of the verb for consistency. Start and end dates of term are those officially listed in the Oxford calendar. An email from Robin Darwall-Smith on 11/26/2008 explains the discrepancies between official term dates and the notes of C. S. Lewis in his diary and letters: “Term officially starts on a Thursday, but then 1st Week (out of 8) starts on the following Sunday (some might say Saturday, but it ought to be Sunday). The week in which the start of term falls is known now as „0th Week‟. I don‟t know how far back that name goes, but I‟d be surprised if it wasn‟t known in Lewis‟s day. The system at the start of term which I knew in the 1980s - and which I guess was there in Lewis‟s time too - was that the undergraduates had to be in residence by the Thursday of 0th Week; the Friday was set aside for start of term Collections (like the ones memorably described in Lewis‟s diary at Univ.!), and for meetings with one‟s tutors. Then after the weekend lectures and tutorials started in earnest on the Monday of 1st Week.” Email from Robin Darwall-Smith on 11/27/2008: “The two starts to the Oxford term actually have names. There‟s the start of term, in midweek, and then the start of „Full Term‟, on the Sunday - and is always Sunday. Lectures and tutorials start up on the following day.

Boletín53 Editorial Apreciado Socio/a, Este Boletín, está conformado por un interesante Dossier sobre Agroho- meopatía. Ha sido por casualidad que podamos contar con el profesor Radko Tichavsky, una de las personas que más está contribuyendo al desa- rrollo de la homeopatía para los cultivo y para las plantas. Creemos que es un profesional con unas ideas que van muy en la línea que seguimos en la escuela; y, además, es un tema poco desarrollado a nivel bi- bliográfico. Es por esta razón, que estamos muy contentos de poder contar con la posibilidad de organizar un Seminario sobre Holohomeopatía para la Agricultura, los próximos 23 y 24 de Julio. Estamos seguros que será una buena oportunidad de conocer a este maestro. Esperemos que nos pueda aclarar las dudas sobre la utilización de los remedios homeopáticos para la mejora y el rendimiento de las plantas. Hemos incluido también la biografía del matrimonio Kolísko. Fueron discí- pulos de Rudolf Steiner, pionero en la utilización de los remedios homeopá- ticos para las plantas; sus ideas de biodinámica son aún, hoy en día, de máxima actualidad. Los estudios de los austriacos Eugen y Lili Kolísko, y, posteriormente, de cientos de investigadores más, marcaron una línea científica en agrohomeopatía. Reciban un saludo.

  • 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.
