E.A.K. Stockmeyer writers: The five lectures here published...were
delivered during the educational Conference organized by the
General Anthroposophical Society and the College of Teachers of the
Free Waldorf School, Stuttgart, in April 1924. They are the last
public lecutres delivered by Rudolf Steiner in germany... The style
of the lectures seems to me like a gentle caress on the curly head
of a child whose bright or troubled eyes look up to us
questioningly or beseechingly...seventeen hundred men and women
listened to him, and the prolonged, generous applause from this
gread crowd at the end of every lecture was deeply moving; while at
the end of the last lecture the appluase became a great ovation
which seemed as it would never cease, the audience rising as one
person... One year later this man who was loved by so many closed
his eyes in Dornach. What he gave in these lectures has become a
heritage...
At the close of his last lecture, Steiner summed up all he meant
to say in six lines: To devote oneself to matter is to grind down
souls.
To find oneself in the spirit is to connect with human
beings.
To see oneself in human beings is to construct worlds..
This book, with its companion volume, The Roots of Education,
constitutes one of the best, most mature introductions to Waldorf
education.
