Paperback. Etat : New. In this innovative anthology, Angela Lord presents a unique series of commentaries on art, aesthetics and colour by three of western culture's greatest intellects. Her comparative study of the works of Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas and Rudolf Steiner illustrates how each of these towering thinkers employed an individual and groundbreaking approach. Yet, remarkably, there are common threads that weave through their collective works that have previously been overlooked.By selecting and extracting specific quotations and arranging them in particular sequences, Lord throws light on texts that have often been restricted to theological and academic study. Through this exposure, she reveals their relevance to the Arts today, showing how their content can stimulate an enhanced awareness of truth, beauty and knowledge in our lives. Art Aesthetics and Colour also offers us the opportunity to reinterpret the works of Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas in the light of Rudolf Steiner's contemporary spiritual-scientific insights.In addition to the extensive quotations from the three historical figures, Lord provides brief biographies, an introduction, notes and a bibliography. The book is well-illustrated throughout and includes colour plates.

Paperback. Etat : New. Lord, Angela (illustrateur). 'The ancient continent of Lemuria holds many keys to our present and future stages of evolution. Through an understanding of its deeper aspects we can unlock its mysteries, and indeed some of the mysteries of world evolutionary processes.' - From the Foreword Basing her work on the research of Rudolf Steiner and occult writers such as William Scott-Elliot and Helena Blavatsky, Angela Lord conjures up powerful images of the lost landmass of Lemuria, interspersing her text with colour paintings, maps and drawings. She demonstrates how, by delving into our distant primeval past, we can discover events that brought about remarkable changes in the course of world evolution and human consciousness. Beginning with a survey of Earth evolution and its early geological phases, she relates Lemuria to the mystery of the Fall from Paradise, the loss of clairvoyance and the advent of human reproduction. 'With the descent of the spirit-self, earthly desire and egotistic love entered humanity, and in the figure of Adam we recognize humanity of the Lemurian epoch in its progress towards human existence in earthly corporeality.' Lord describes how, through the help and influence of diverse spiritual entities, the human being became balanced and upright and was able to develop physical senses. She discusses the origins of religion, the question of time, and the relevance of the legend of Isis and Osiris in this striking overview. The book also contains diagrammatic evolutionary charts by John Waterman and W. Scott-Elliot.

Paperback. Etat : New. Lord, Angela (illustrateur). There was a boy who used to sit in the twilight and listen to his great-aunt's stories. She told him that if he could reach the place where the end of the rainbow stands he would find there a golden key."And what is the key for?" the boy would ask. "What is it the key of? What will it open?""That nobody knows," his aunt would reply. "He has to find that out."Now all that his great-aunt told the boy about the golden key would have been nonsense, had it not been that their little house stood on the borders of Fairyland. For it is perfectly well known that out of Fairyland nobody ever can find where the rainbow stands. George MacDonald's classic tale, full of imagination and dreamlike images, tells of a girl and boy, Tangle and Mossy, who venture on a mysterious and magical journey. First, Tangle encounters three Old Men - of the Sea, of the Earth and of Fire - and gains in wisdom and beauty through her adventures. Then, together with Mossy who has the golden key, they travel to the rainbow to discover what awaits them there. This new edition of The Golden Key is exquisitely illustrated with paintings by Angela Lord, who also provides an informative Afterword.

Paperback. Etat : New. Rudolf Steiner's intuitive artistic knowledge enabled him to use colours in a unique way, giving expression to their individual natures. Together with his many lectures on art, Steiner's paintings provide artists with fresh ways of understanding colour, allowing for an entirely new creativity and aesthetics. In 1924, Steiner painted a watercolour of the Madonna and Child, giving it the title `New Life'. Through Steiner's depiction of Mary, mother of the Divine Child, this painting draws us to the feminine expression of spirituality. In this highly-illustrated, full-colour book Angela Lord studies this feminine principle, beginning with the very earliest stages of human evolution - the `Fall' from paradise and the pre-historic periods of Lemuria and Atlantis. From the Mysteries of Egypt and Greece to the development of Christian art, she offers insights to the myths and legends of female deities and goddesses. According to Rudolf Steiner, at the time of Jesus's birth humanity had entered a decadent phase of development. Small groups of initiated individuals, however, were preparing for a sacred birth: the descent of a heavenly being into earthly existence. The God of the Old Testament would be revealed `in flesh', born to a virgin mother. In the second part of New Life - Mother and Child, Angela Lord takes us on a journey through two thousand years of Christian art, covering Iconography, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. We see how artistic images of Mary and her Child have changed, why these variations have occurred and how they reflect the changing consciousness of humanity. Finally, the `New Life' painting is considered from the interactive processes of colour and composition, illustrated with a series of artistic colour sequences.

Tapa Dura Con Sobrecubierta. Etat : Nuevo. Primera edición. Libro NUEVO y precintado. Colección Literaria. Tapa dura en cartoné ilustrado, con sobrecubierta. Mary Shelley, Frankenstein o el moderno Prometeo; Lord Byron, Augustus Darvell (fragmento), John William Polidori, El vampiro, y cartas, diarios y fragmentos de los tres autores y de Percy B. Shelley. El año 1816 ha pasado a la historia de la literatura por la legendaria estancia en Villa Diodati de Percy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin (Mary W. Shelley), Claire Clairmont (hermanastra de Mary), Lord Byron y su médico John William Polidori, durante la cual, tras la lectura de una antología de cuentos de fantasmas alemanes traducidos al francés, Byron propuso que cada uno de ellos escribiera un relato. De ahí nacerían Frankenstein, August Dawell y El vampiro. Tanto por la singularidad de sus protagonistas como por su relevancia literaria y, sobre todo, por la influencia que ese verano de 1816 tendría en la literatura de los años (y siglos) venideros, resulta de un especial interés poder leer todos juntos los textos que se generaron durante aquellas semanas. Este volumen reúne no sólo la edición definitiva de Frankenstein de 1831 enriquecida con la reseña que del mismo escribiera Percy W. Shelley en el momento de su publicación, y los textos de Byron y de Polidori, sino también una selección de diarios y cartas de los diversos protagonistas. Elementos estos que, junto con las notas biográficas sobre sus autores y la completa cronología que los acompaña, permitirán al lector de nuestros días adentrarse en el ambiente y las circunstancias que les condicionaron. Y, sin duda, admirar la imaginación y el valor de esos jóvenes que fueron capaces de bucear en esa zona oscura que todos llevamos dentro y sacar de ella algunos de los más imborrables mitos modernos.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. This marvelous book explores the deep meaning of the watercolor Easter (or "Three Crosses") painted by Rudolf Steiner in April 1924. Living through this book into Steiner's watercolor painting, the reader is led to contemplate the profound mysteries of not only colors and the sense world, but also the divine, cosmic, human invisible reality lying behind them and manifested in the unique event we celebrate as Easter. At first, the coloring and composition of the painting seem relatively simple. But the longer one looks at and mediates upon it, questions begin to press upon the viewer: Why did Rudolf Steiner use the rainbow sequence of colors? Why are the crosses so small, seen only from a distance? Who or what are the white figures "below the earth"? What is the painting actually about? Answering these questions, artist Angela Lord draws on a wide range of anthroposophic and other sources to illuminate the enormous mystery of Easter itself. It becomes clear that in the painting, Steiner does not focus on Good Friday but on Holy Saturday and Jesus Christ's "descent into hell," or into Limbo, to raise the dead. Thus, the motif is not suffering so much as it is the germinating theme of Resurrection. The author then turns to meditate on the painting in the light of the Twenty-third Psalm, and the reader recognizes the Psalmist's image of "comfort" in a new form. The book also considers the Easter verses in Steiner's Calendar of the Soul, as well as the pre-Christian Mystery of Adonis, which expands the the reader's understanding of the colors and the profound meaning of the painting. Lord then delves into the mysteries of colors as Steiner uses them--from the polarity of red and black, the contrast of orange and green, the radiance of yellow and blue, and the enigmatic presence of white and violet to an experience of the painting as a beautiful rainbow. The Easter experience, as the colors teach, offers the "rainbow meditation" and what it means to be human. Moreover, because humanity is (in Steiner's words) "the religion of the gods," Angela Lord ends her book with an exploration of the cosmic meaning that shines through the colors.
