He speaks directly from experiences of cognitive research and explorations. Each of the aphorisms arises from his spiritual research and demonstrates how such spiritual research is to be undertaken. The \"content\" is Steiner's own, but readers can discover their own content. His method of awareness--a path of attention to one's actual experience--is universal and truly human.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Chadwick Library Edition\u003c\/b\u003e represents an endeavor to republish--mostly in new or thoroughly revised English translations--several written works of Rudolf Steiner. The edition is named for the late horticulturist Alan Chadwick, whose life and work has served as inspiration to the small group from which the idea originated. Our extensive experience with special bindings led to the selection--for this \"trade edition\" of 750 books--of a leather spine binding, cloth sides, and a light slipcase. For the hand-numbered edition (100 books), the binding is full leather with a hand-gilt top of the pages in a fine, stiff, cloth-covered slipcase. The leather is blue calfskin, and the title stamping on the spines is in genuine gold leaf. All of this is being carried out by hand at one of the finest binders, Ruggero Rigoldi.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume is a translation of  \u003ci\u003e Die Schwelle dre geistigen Welt: Aphoristische Ausf?rungen  \u003c\/i\u003e (GA 17). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead more about the Chadwick Library Edition at chadwicklibrarypress.org.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rudolf Steiner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1732461317\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781732461314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steiner Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/08\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.60w x 0.80d","brand":"Rudolf Steiner","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43937895710975,"sku":"9781732461314","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3c03c670-a255-4c30-972d-cf8acf43598e.jpg?v=1681432543","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-threshold-of-the-spiritual-rudolf-steiner-9781732461314","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
