The Voice of the Patient presents anthroposophic case studies drawn from patient–faculty meetings of the late 1980s. When the life forces in one or more organs are disturbed, not only is physiological function affected — a mental imbalance also arises from each of the four organs responsible for protein formation.
The One, Child of the Universe begins with a practical study of alchemical principles through a young child's colorful drawings. As a Waldorf school physician, Dr. Anna Lups came to see that a "star child" had artistically conveyed a message worth investigating — and two decades later she returned to those drawings to read what he had carried with him.
In Elder Flowering, Karen Gierlach and Signe Eklund Schaefer extend the social art of biography work — grown from Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual science — into life’s later years. Beyond the familiar seven-year rhythms of childhood and adolescence lie the archetypal milestones of elderhood, explored here as a path of continued becoming.
Earthly and Cosmic Man (CW 133) gathers nine lectures Rudolf Steiner held in Berlin in 1911–1912. Vistas of primordial cosmic happenings and ages of gray antiquity in human history open up with particular vividness — and shed, nevertheless, the clearest light upon our present age. Steiner spoke here like the voice of destiny itself, seeking to awaken his listeners’ conscience to the vital significance of the hour in which we live.
Angels Speak returns to the eight days of the Christmas Conference of 1923/24, when Rudolf Steiner — together with the 800 people present — laid the Foundation Stone "in our hearts" as a meditation. Nine times in all he spoke the verses, invoking the angelic hierarchies and letting their voices sound; this book listens with them.
Seraphim of Sarov is Margarita Woloschin's narrative of the great Russian saint's life, published in Moscow in 1913 — ten years after his canonization — and translated into English here for the first time. Presenting the key stages of Seraphim's path, Woloschin contemplates the nature of miracles, the Holy Spirit, and the human soul.
You Are Your Child's First Teacher is Rahima Baldwin Dancy's classic guide to the early years. We don't need another authority or set of rules for raising children, she writes — but when our understanding of child and adult development enlarges to encompass the whole human being, body, mind, emotions, and spirit, we become equipped to make our own decisions with both cognitive and intuitive knowledge.
Fire in the Temple takes up the final act of Rudolf Steiner’s remarkable life — beginning with the destruction by fire of the first Goetheanum on New Year’s Eve 1922, and following the almost unfathomable exertions of creativity that poured forth in the years before his death in 1925. Dramatized here for the first time, it is a drama of life and spirit — of Steiner’s closest circle and the movement he initiated.
Commonsense Childrearing asks: can we raise healthy children in a toxic world? Yes, we can. Modern life has brought great gains and quiet losses — as certain kinds of knowledge increased, older kinds of wisdom, once innate, have grown faint. This book is about recovering them for the daily work of raising children.
The Love Sphere of the Earth grew from a vision granted to Marko Pogacnik in the face of humanity's shape-shifting war against life on Earth. Working with the love fields pulsating between the planet's beings, Pogacnik describes the redemptive promise of the Earth's all-embracing love system — an encouraging book full of extraordinary discoveries.
The Seasonal Festivals as Soul Experience (CW 224) collects eleven lectures Rudolf Steiner held in Bern, Dornach, Prague, Stuttgart, and Berlin in 1923. Their challenge is living anthroposophy — not a dead concern with what is past, but a sum of flaming sparks: the festivals of the year experienced inwardly, as realities of the human soul.
The Hour of Decision (CW 203) gathers eighteen lectures Rudolf Steiner held in Stuttgart, Dornach, and The Hague in early 1921. Knowledge of the human being and feeling for the entire cosmos — these, Steiner says, give the human being equilibrium, found when the Christ mystery is grasped as anthroposophical spiritual knowledge can give it.
Introductions to Eurythmy (CW 277a) features the addresses Rudolf Steiner gave to the first audiences of the newly minted art of eurythmy, 1913–1924. His intention was never to explain eurythmy intellectually — a vain and inartistic endeavor, he remarked — but to awaken in each audience the right mood for receiving an art form the world had not yet seen.
Friedrich Nietzsche, Fighter for Freedom (CW 5) is Rudolf Steiner's portrait of a kindred spirit — written immediately after reading Beyond Good and Evil in 1889. Steiner saw in Nietzsche a courageous fighter for the freedom of the human individuality, waging a fierce but unconscious battle against the unspiritual views of his age.
The Inner Nature of Music (CW 283) collects Rudolf Steiner's only lecture cycles devoted to music — eight lectures, two Q&A sessions, and two closing addresses given between 1906 and 1923. "A tone is at the foundation of everything in the physical world": an unusual treasure for musicians and listeners alike, on the spiritual realities sounding within the experience of tone.
Necessity and Freedom gathers five lectures Rudolf Steiner gave in Berlin in early 1916 (CW 166). Abounding in lively anecdotes and fresh insights, they draw the reader into a rich contemplation of necessity and freedom in human life and in the world — resolving the apparent contradiction into a higher unity in which the two prove anything but mutually exclusive.
A Legacy Restated collects essays written just after World War II by Bernhard Behrens, a German economist who emigrated to the United States. His theme is the task of culture itself: until true individualism — not the continuation but the overcoming of egoism — wins through against the artificially galvanized group spirits of the past, group interests will continue to act as mutual enemies.
