Introduction to Ita Wegman and Walter Johannes Stein's Persephone Play
Introduction to Ita Wegman and Walter Johannes Stein’s Persephone play The Persepkoneia play, published for the first time in these pages, comes from the literary estate of Ita Wegman (1876-1943). It was originally written around Easter 1930 for the international youth camp to be held in August that year at Stakenberg in Holland. Two versions are in existence: 1) a handwritten version in Ita Wegman and Walter Johannes Stein’s handwriting, and 2) a typescript. Remarkably, Ita Wegman and Walter Johannes Stein took turns in the handwritten version; two thirds were written by Ita Wegman, with 5 passages in Stein’s handwriting in between, on two occasions changing in mid-sentence. I found these undated manuscripts in Arlesheim in 1981 when I was planning the biography and sorting through Ita Wegman’s papers. The typewritten text carries a note by Dr Hilma Walter: ‘summarized by Dr Wegman1, which suggested that it was a revision or summary of an existing text. I was unable to find out anything about Ihis, however; Dr Walter was no longer alive and Madeleine van Deventer had never heard of the play. To date, there has been nothing to indicate that Wegman (and Stein) based themselves on an existing text On the other hand the history suggests that this is an original work by Ita Wegman, and that Walter Stein worked on it as well. The play is also remarkable in so far as there are no other known literary efforts by Ita Wegman.1 Later a systematic search of Ita Wegman^ correspondence brought to light a letter Dr Willem Zeylmans van Emmichoven (1893-1961) had written to Ita Wegman (dated May 1930), in which he discusses the play in some detail. -
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. -

Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories Before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions
Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions Geoffrey Jones Working Paper 13-024 August 28, 2012 Copyright © 2012 by Geoffrey Jones Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions Geoffrey Jones Harvard Business School August 2012 Abstract This working paper examines the creation of the global natural food and beauty categories before 2000. This is shown to have been a lengthy process of new category creation involving the exercise of entrepreneurial imagination. Pioneering entrepreneurs faced little consumer demand for natural products, and little consumer knowledge of what they entailed. The creation of new categories involved three overlapping waves of entrepreneurship. The first involved making the ideological case for natural products. This often entailed investment in education and publishing activities. Second, entrepreneurs engaged in the creation of industry associations which could advocate, as well as give the nascent industry credibility and create standards. Finally, entrepreneurs established retail stores, supply and distribution networks, and created brands. Entrepreneurial cognition and motivation frequently lay in individual, and very local, experiences, but many of the key pioneers were also highly globalized in their world views, with strong perception of how small, local efforts related to much bigger and global pictures. A significant sub-set of the influential historical figures were articulate in expressing strong religious convictions. -

RUDOLF STEINER LIBRARY VYDZ023789 T H E G O L D E N B L A D E KINDLING SPIRIT 2002 54th ISSUE RUDOLF STEINER LIBRARY 65 FERN HILL RD GHENT NY 12075 KINDLING SPIRIT Edited by William Forward, Simon Blaxland-de Lange and Warren Ashe The Golden Blade Anthroposophy springs from the work and teaching of Rudolf Steiner. He described it as a path of knowledge, to guide the spiritual in the human being to the spiritual in the universe. The aim of this annual journal is to bring the outlook of anthroposophy to bear on questions and activities relevant to the present, in a way which may have lasting value. It was founded in 1949 by Charles Davy and Arnold Freeman, who were its first editors. The title derives from an old Persian legend, according to which King Jamshid received from his god, Ahura Mazda, a golden blade with which to fulfil his mission on earth. It carried the heavenly forces of light into the darkness of earthly substance, thus allowing its transformation. The legend points to the pos sibility that humanity, through wise and compassionate work with the earth, can one day regain on a new level what was lost when the Age of Gold was supplanted by those of Silver, Bronze and Iron. Technology could serve this aim; instead of endan gering our plantet's life, it could help to make the earth a new sun.

Camphill and the Future
DISABILITY STUDIES | RELIGION M C KANAN THE CAMPHILL MOVEMENT, one of the world’s largest and most enduring networks of intentional communities, deserves both recognition and study. CAMPHILL A ND Founded in Scotland at the beginning of the Second World War, Camphill communities still thrive today, encompassing thousands of people living in more CAMPHILL than one hundred twenty schools, villages, and urban neighborhoods on four continents. Camphillers of all abilities share daily work, family life, and festive THE FUTURE celebrations with one another and their neighbors. Unlike movements that reject mainstream society, Camphill expressly seeks to be “a seed of social renewal” by evolving along with society to promote the full inclusion and empowerment of persons with disabilities, who comprise nearly half of their residents. In this Spirituality and Disability in an Evolving Communal Movement multifaceted exploration of Camphill, Dan McKanan traces the complexities of AND THE the movement’s history, envisions its possible future, and invites ongoing dia- logue between the fields of disability studies and communal studies. “Dan McKanan knows Camphill better than anyone else in the academic world FUTURE and has crafted an absorbing account of the movement as it faces challenges eighty years after its founding.” TIMOTHY MILLER, author of The Encyclopedic Guide to American Inten- tional Communities “This book serves as a living, working document for the Camphill movement. Spirituality and Disability Communal Movement in an Evolving McKanan shows that disability studies and communal studies have more to offer each other than we recognize.” ELIZABETH SANDERS, Managing Director, Camphill Academy “With good research and wonderful empathy, McKanan pinpoints not only Cam- phill’s societal significance but also how this eighty-year-old movement can still bring potent remediation for the values and social norms of today’s world.” RICHARD STEEL, CEO, Karl König Institute DAN MCKANAN is the Emerson Senior Lecturer at Harvard Divinity School. -
