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.

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.

    NEWSLETTER OF THE BERKSHIRE-TACONIC BRANCH OF THE ANTHROPOSOPHICAL SOCIETY VOLUME 25, ISSUE 9, MAY/JUNE 2015 Where the Bee sucks, there suck I. In a cowslip’s bell I lie; There I couch when owls do cry. On the bat’s back I do fly After summer merrily. Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough. (ARIEL’s final song in The Tempest by William Shakespeare, Act 5, Scene 1, lines 88-94) Drawing; E. Lapointe Pentecost ur Christian festival of Pentecost is related in a beautiful way to what is above the stars: the universal “Ospiritual fire of the cosmos, individualised and descending in fiery tongues upon the Apostles. This fire is neither of the heavens nor of the earth, neither cosmic nor merely terrestrial, but permeates every- thing, yet it is individualised and reaches every human being. Pentecost is connected with the whole world! Just as the Christmas festival is connected with the earth and the Easter festival with the stars, so Pentecost is directly connected with every human being when he or she receives the spark of spiritual life out of the whole universe. What all humanity received in the descent of the divine human being to earth is given to each individual in the fiery tongues of Pentecost. The fiery tongues represent what is in us, in the universe, and in the stars. Thus, especially for those who seek the spirit, Pentecost has a special, profound meaning, summoning us again and again to seek anew for the spirit.” Rudolf Steiner, lecture given 99 years ago at Pentecost in Berlin, June 6, 1916 (GA 169).

  • 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.

  • Dearest Community, April Issue – 2020
    Dearest Community, April Issue – 2020 Yes, this is the first time I have addressed you as such! Our perspectives are indeed widening and warming - paradoxically through the limitations and deepest con- cerns set upon us! I believe many, if not all, of us feel challenged to awaken and to take action in these times we are experiencing at this moment. I know that Anthroposophy has given us tools with which to face these situations and to act. I am sure that in attempting to meet the challenges, we can take great steps in our work, both individually and together. Noticeably, I hear the call that rings out from Goethe’s tale The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily: “The Time is at Hand!”. This tale lends me guidance and I here share some of its images, hoping that, even if you do not know the tale, they may still speak to you. * An image that I have never noticed before (right at the end of the story) gives us a strong warning. When de- scribing the risen Temple and the niche where the Mixed King has now crumbled (as a fallen King of all that retards us), this niche had to be hidden behind a curtain “...which no eye can penetrate, and no hand dare draw aside. For otherwise the crowding multitude would have found no end to their gazing and admiration con- tained there, and would have even suffocated one an- other in the Temple, had not there attention been again attracted to the open space.” I hear in these words a deep warning that we need to take care of where we place our attention, not to the lure or fears of a “fallen materi- alistic realm” but rather to the new space, a risen space, an open space.
