Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual philosophy is the inspiration for many
successful initiatives in the world today, from the international
Steiner Waldorf school movement to biodynamic agriculture and its
increasingly popular produce. Steiner developed his philosophy in
dozens of books and many thousands of lectures. His teaching contains
dozens of new concepts and ideas, and as a result he had often to
create his own vocabulary. In this practical volume - a companion to
his_ Anthroposophy, A Concise Introduction_ - Henk van Oort gives
concise definitions of many terms and concepts in Steiner’s
worldview, from the most commonplace to the more obscure.
_Anthroposophy A-Z_ can be used as a reference guide, but also as a
gateway into Rudolf Steiner’s manifold world of spiritual ideas and
concepts. Anthroposophy can be seen to be a new language - a language
that can lead to the world of the spirit. It was with this awareness
that Henk van Oort took the initiative to write this glossary.
Ultimately, he has written the sort of inspiring handbook that he
wished had existed when he first became acquainted with anthroposophy
over 40 years ago.
HENK VAN OORT, born in 1943, trained as a primary teacher before
taking a Masters degree in English at the Amsterdam University. He has
taught for 40 years in primary and secondary education, including
class teaching in a Steiner school, teaching English, and running
educational courses and seminars for teachers and parents. His
interest in literature and poetry has led to his appearance at
storytelling and poetry seminars, and his introductory courses to
anthroposophy have proved to be highly successful. Based in Bergen
N.H. in the Netherlands, Henk van Oort is married and the father of
three grown-up children. He is the author of_ Anthroposophy, A Concise
Introduction._
