Overview

In the Spring of 1920 Rudolf Steiner gave three lectures highly critical of the Roman Catholic Church's political history. The lectures were meant for members of the Anthroposophical Society only, but were soon leaked beyond the Society, resulting in some very bad feelings and even violence in the heavily Catholic Swiss district where Dornach is located. The lectures were transcribed from stenographic notes into German, and are included in a series of seventeen lectures entitled: Heilfaktoren für den Sozialen Organismus (Means for Healing the Social Organism). This book contains English and Spanish translations of these three lectures.En la primavera de 1920, Rudolf Steiner dio tres conferencias muy críticas sobre la historia política de la Iglesia Católica Romana, dirigidas exclusivamente a los miembros de la Sociedad Antroposófica. Pronto, sin embargo, su contenido se filtró fuera de la Sociedad y causó gran animosidad, e incluso reacciones violentas, en la región predominantemente católica de Suiza en la que se sitúa Dornach. Estas conferencias fueron transcriptas de las notas estenográficas en alemán, y se encuentran incluidas en un ciclo de diecisiete conferencias titulado Heilfaktoren für den Sozialen Organismus (Medios para sanar el organismo social). En el presente libro, aparecen traducidas al inglés y al español.

María Teresa Gutiérrez is a graduate teacher of English from Argentina. Her acquaintance with English started in kindergarten and went on throughout primary and secondary school before attending teacher training college, where she did advanced courses in English grammar, linguistics, and English and American literature. She also took postgraduate courses in translation and English for Specific Purposes. Shortly after graduating, she spent three years in England, where she had the opportunity to interact with native speakers both socially and at work, absorb English culture, and to attend an international IATEFL conference in Oxford. Back in Argentina, she taught English at primary, secondary and tertiary levels - including 8 years at a Waldorf School in the province of Córdoba.
