DESCRIPTION: "Here is a compact, accessible, illuminating introduction to the basic writings of the great modern spiritual teacher who has beerj an immense influence on contemporary education, literature, art, science, and philosophy. Culling the best of some sixty of Rudolf Steiner's published works, Professor Robert McDermott offers general readers an account of the man and his life, with selections showing the extraordinary range, vision, and power of his thought. In his introduction to The Essential Steiner, McDermott recounts Steiner's life and work, from his childhood and education to his work as a natural scientist, philosopher, scholar, educator, artist, interpreter of culture, and occult seer. He explains Steiner's method and contributions in these diverse fields and places him in relation to major traditions of thought. McDermott confronts and explains the fact that, although Steiner is a multifaceted original genius credited witty major contributions in a variety of areas, the author of hundreds of books, and the founder of a worldwide movement responsible for hundreds of Waldorf schools and other public works, he remains remarkably little known by both the academic community and the public. Selections from Steiner's writings are presented in five chapters with individual introductory essays: "Knowledge, Nature and Spirit," selections from Steiner's early writings (1894-1904) on philosophy of nature, philosophy of spiritual thinking, and the possibility of knowledge of higher worlds; "Spiritual Anthropology," on Steiner's theory of human nature as a combination of the physical, etheric, soul-life, and spiritual; "Historical Vision," presenting Steiner's interpretation of history from Egyptian and Buddhist culture, the Greeks, and early Christianity; "Esoteric Christianity," given to Steiner's esoteric interpretation of the Christ event and the meaning of the Christian revelation; and "Society and Education," on social philosophy and education, of particular relevance to contemporary issues. McDermott concludes with a comprehensive annotated bibliography of Steiner's writings in English. Robert A. McDermott is Assistant Provost and Professor of Philosophy at Baruch College, The City University of New York" - Publisher Note. - ISBN# 0060653450 -- with a bonus offer--; 520-0408stein; STEINER RUDOLF 1861 1925 BODY MIND SPIRIT GENERAL McDermott, Robert A.
