Rudolf Steiner's Art History Lectures — Now in Print. An extraordinary production from SteinerBooks. The May issue of the Anthroposophical Society's Newsletter complimented the RSArchive on a helpful online presentation of Rudolf Steiner's illustrated lectures on art history. We could not imagine that the SteinerBooks Collected Works would be tackling this costly project any time soon. But of course, their volume was just at the printer. Art History as a Reflection of Inner Spiritual Impulses (CW 292) is newly translated by Rory Bradley, with an introduction by Stephen Sagarin.
“I am going to show you a series of reproductions, of slides, from a period in art history to which the human mind will probably always return to contemplate and consider; for, if we consider history as a reflection of inner spiritual impulses, it is precisely in this evolutionary moment that we see certain human circumstances, ones that are among the deepest and most decisive for the outer course of human history, expressed through a relationship to art.” —Rudolf Steiner.
