Reseña del editor

This book introduces a new way for thinking about, creating, and viewing art. Rudolf Steiner saw his task as the renewal of the lost unity of science, the arts, and religion; thus, he created a new, cognitive scientific and religious art in anthroposophy. The implications of his act --recognized by such diverse artists as Wassily Kandinsky and Joseph Beuys --are only now coming fully to light.

In his thorough introduction of more than a hundred pages, Michael Howard takes readers through these thought-provoking chapters:

• Is Art Dead?
• To Muse or Amuse
• Artistic Activity As Spiritual Activity
• The Representative of Humanity
• Beauty, Creativity, and Metamorphosis
• New Directions in Art

Lectures include:

• The Aesthetics of Goethe's Worldview
• The Spiritual Being of Art
• Buildings Will Speak
• The Sense Organs and Aesthetic Experience
• The Two Sources of Art
• The Building at Dornach
• The Supersensible Origin of the Arts
• Truth, Beauty, and Goodness
• Christ, Ahriman, and Lucifer
• Plus a bibliography and index
