In addition to his philosophical teachings, he provided ideas for the development of many practical activities, including education, agriculture, medicine, economics, architecture, science, religion, and the arts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this introductory reader, Matthew Barton has collected excerpts from Steiner's many talks and writings on the subject of Michaelmas, one of the key spiritual festivals of the yearly cycle. The volume also features an editorial introduction, afterword, commentary, and notes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapters: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Sinking Earth, Rising Spirit \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Michael and the Dragon \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Michael, Spirit of Our Age \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Toward a Michael Festival \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rudolf Steiner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1855841592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855841598\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rudolf Steiner Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/30\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.80h x 4.80w x 0.60d","brand":"Rudolf Steiner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075095032063,"sku":"9781855841598","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_92768d52-55c6-4e83-b67c-8b4cfabd9c84.jpg?v=1685457576","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/michaelmas-rudolf-steiner-9781855841598","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
