Sinopsis

A revised and updated edition of the main critical work written from outside the movement provides an engaging introduction to Anthroposophy is written from the perspective of the English-speaking outside world. Employing Anthroposophical and external sources alike, Ahern offers an unbiased look into one of the world's most interesting mystical societies. 'Sun at Midnight' guides the reader from the beginnings of Anthroposophy as an offshoot of Theosophy, through the life of its founder, Rudolph Steiner, to the movement's place in Western esoteric history while offering an accessible and incisive look into its deeper esoteric beliefs and theories. Waldorf schools and bio-dynamics are woven together with the hardening of spirit into matter to create a fascinating image of Anthroposophy in all its facets. Geoffrey Ahern is a Fellow of the Centre for Leadership Studies, Exeter University. Most of his publications have been based on research into cultures and organisations. He is an organ­is­ational consultant and has led the executive coaching delivery for a major London provider. The first edition of 'Sun at Midnight' was based on his PhD in the sociology of religion at the London School of Economics.
