Reader reviews for Educating Through Art: Exploring the Roots of Steiner-Waldorf Education and the Role of Art

From the publisher

Investigates why Steiner-Waldorf schools attach such importance to art in education and why Rudolf Steiner himself brought artistic training into all fields of further education.

Agnes Nobel examines the importance of art in the development of the child and looks for some answers to the vital question: what is education for? She goes on to investigate why Steiner-Waldorf schools attach such importance to art in education, and why Rudolf Steiner himself brought artistic training into all fields of further education.

She describes Steiner's picture of the developing child, his views on the imprint of early experience on the child's whole being and the importance of living relationships and community in the Steiner-Waldorf school. She shows how these ideas are expressed in the curriculum of the schools.

From the rear cover

Agnes Nobel examines the importance of art in the development of the child and looks for some answers to the vital question: what is education for? She goes on to investigate why Waldorf/Steiner schools attach such importance to art in education, and why Rudolf Steiner himself brought artistic training into all fields of further education. She describes Steiner's picture of the developing child, his views on the imprint of early experience on the child's whole being and the importance of living relationships and community in the Waldorf school. She shows how these ideas were expressed in the curriculum of the schools. There have been many books written on the Steiner approach to education but they have usually been written from within the Steiner educational movement. This book takes an "outsider's" view of Waldorf education and assesses its unique qualities, successes and limitations.
