Download or read book At the Dawn of a New Consciousness written by Bernard Nesfield-Cookson and published by Temple Lodge Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Italian Renaissance is considered by many to mark the beginning of the modern age. The name itself (literally "rebirth") accurately expresses the innovation that took place during that period. Renaissance thinkers took a vital interest in history, literature, and the arts, focusing on the human world as much as, if not more than, that of God. The rapid development of the arts and sciences reflected their study of the visible, physical world in all its three-dimensional glory. The source of these new impulses, says the author, can be found in what Rudolf Steiner calls the birth of "the consciousness soul"--the faculty for objective self-awareness. Instead of a primarily inward-looking consciousness, people began looking outward with greater intensity, observing the world around them in detail. With greater conscious of their separate being, people of the Renaissance began to study the phenomena of the world of nature from an individual, personal perspective. In this enlightening book, illustrated with sixteen pages of color plates, the author illuminates the concept of the consciousness soul, showing how it is reflected in fifteenth-century Florentine painting, sculpture, and architecture, as well as in the impulses issuing from Plato's Academy of Athens.

Download or read book Selected Lead Articles from The Dawn written by Louisa Lawson and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected Lead Articles from The Dawn is a collection of articles by Louisa Lawson. Lawson was an Australian author and a passionate early activist for women's rights. Excerpt: ""WOMAN" as a topic for male journalistic pens has been popular ever since the infancy of literature; the little feminine vanities and vagaries have formed a delightful nucleus for descriptive and imaginative literary work in "leaders", paragraphs, poems, plays and essays. Now and then, exceptional tidal waves of controversy occur when "marriage", "woman's suffrage", or similar subjects attract and swell the billows of printing ink, but these subside, and the permanent currents of the literary ocean carry always the same kind of debris—disquisitions on woman, her weakness, inconstancy, vanity, and little failings innumerable."
