Synopsis

Rudolf Steiner defined Anthroposophy as "the consciousness of one's humanity." His work is neither religious nor sectarian, but rather a universal and modern science of the spirits, appropriate to the being and consciousness of people today.

This comprehensive overview of Steiner's life and work examines his revolutionary thinking on education, science, agriculture, the arts, and spirituality. Lissau explores the legacy of Steiner's unique vision and its challenge for the 21st century--to develop anthroposophic ideas in harmony with today's conditions.

This fully revised edition features a new foreword and afterword.

À propos de l?auteur

Rudi Lissau (1911-2004) was born in Vienna to Jewish parents who had become students of Rudolf Steiner and were members of the Viennese branch of the Theosophical society, and thus Lissau met Steiner as a boy and began to study anthroposophy at the age of sixteen. achieved a doctorate from the University of Vienna. After obtaining his PhD, Rudi took a position teaching in a school for the blind. From a Jewish background, he fled Vienna for Britain on the day the Nazis arrived, and took up teaching at Wynstones Rudolf Steiner School in Gloucestershire. Later, he met and conferred with Viktor Frankl and Ludwig Wittgenstein, who both made a deep impression on him and stimulated his profound interest for contemporary issues that were the basis of his extraordinary knowledge and ability to address a wide variety of subjects in his teaching and lecturing. His worldwide lecturing and this book aimed at helping other seekers of the spirit connect with Rudolf Steiner.
