Calendar of the Soul: The Year Participated
In listening to the changing language of the year, said Rudolf Steiner, we can rediscover our individual nature. These meditative verses—one for each week of the year—help awaken a feeling of unity with nature while also stimulating self-discovery. Through intensive work, Steiner’s unique meditations will lead to a greater feeling of unity with the surrounding world.

This budget-priced pocket version features Owen Barfield’s pioneering translation—"paraphrased for an English ear"—based on more than fifty years studying this text. As Barfield asserts, no simple translation can convey the real thrust of these verses. Because of this, he tries to "suggest" rather than simply reproduce the original in exact English translations..

The German Public and the Persecution of Jews, 1933-1945: No One Participated, No One Knew
In "The German Public and the Persecution of the Jews", editor Jorg Wollenberg examines the painful question of the extent to which the German public was aware of Nazi persecution of the Jews. By weaving together eyewitness reports of Reichskristallnacht, this 'night of arson, terror, and destruction' of 9 November 1938, with interpretative essays by contemporary scholars, he constructs an eerie insider look at a gruesome event. Written in stark, almost conversational tones, the eyewitness testimony of Jews, half-Jews and non-Jews is both moving and horrifying. The first-person narratives of the non-Jews document how impossible it was not to know what was happening on Reichskristallnacht and how painful it is years later to deal with repression and denial. The victims whose accounts are included here struggle with the subjectivity of their childhood memories, filling gaps with adult verification and continuing to agonise about distrust of their record..

A Shop's Fables: For anyone who has ever dreamed of, planned, obsessed over, financed, participated in, thrown, fainted at, attended, or run away from a wedding.
"A Shop's Fables" is an irreverent, hysterical, allegorical look at the fifty billion dollar wedding industry. Written by a twenty-year veteran and survivor of brides, mothers-of-the-bride and debutantes, this collection of short stories, a la Aesop, is peppered with illustrations of foxes in bridal gowns, lions in black tie and words of wisdom gleaned from such fashion authorities as Jane Austen, Bill Blass, Erma Bombeck and Benjamin Franklin. Pregnant brides, overbearing mothers, insufferable bridesmaids, sulking flower girls and dowdy debutantes romp through these tales of a bridal shop...a 'Cheers' kind of place, where everybody knows your name and philosophy is dispensed free of charge alongside expensive concoctions of satin and lace. Think Dave Barry as proprietor of a bridal boutique..
