Michaelmas | Free Book
An Introductory Reader
Rudolf Steiner, the often undervalued, multifaceted genius of modern
times, contributed much to the regeneration of culture. In addition to
his philosophical teachings, he provided ideas for the development of
many practical activities, including education - both general and
special - agriculture, medicine, economics, architecture, science,
religion and the arts. Steiner's original contribution to human
knowledge was based on his ability to conduct 'spiritual research',
the investigation of metaphysical dimensions of existence. With his
scientific and philosophical training, he brought a new systematic
discipline to the field, allowing for conscious methods and
comprehensive results. A natural seer from childhood, he cultivated
his spiritual vision to a high degree, enabling him to speak with
authority on previously veiled mysteries of life. Samples of Steiner's
work are to be found in this introductory reader in which Matthew
Barton brings together excerpts from Steiner's many talks and writings
on Michaelmas. The volume also features an editorial introduction,
afterword, commentary and notes. Chapters: Sinking Earth, Rising
Spirit; Michael and the Dragon; Michael, Spirit of Our Age; Towards a
Michael Festival.
