Synopsis

In "On The Art of Reading," Arthur Quiller-Couch presents a profound exploration of the reader's experience and the inherent joys of literature. Written with an engaging prose style that blends erudition with accessibility, the work reflects the early 20th-century literary context, emphasizing both the importance of critical engagement with texts and the emotional resonance literature can evoke. Quiller-Couch offers insightful analyses, navigating various genres and periods, as he urges readers to approach books not just as repositories of information but as transformative experiences that shape the human condition. Arthur Quiller-Couch, a noted literary scholar and professor at Cambridge University, was deeply influenced by the rich literary traditions of the English canon. His passion for literature, paired with his belief in the essential role of reading in personal development, drove him to articulate a philosophy that embraces both enjoyment and critical thought. His experience as an editor and novelist also imbued him with a unique perspective on the art of storytelling, fostering an understanding that catalyzed this seminal work. "On The Art of Reading" is a must-read for anyone seeking to deepen their appreciation for literature. Quiller-Couch's reflections are not only enlightening but also invigorate the reader's commitment to lifelong learning through books. This work invites you to transform your reading from a mere pastime into a profound journey of discovery.

    'The twenty-first century is the second, middle century of the three centuries of the present age of Michael, and it is the most decisive one. If humanity again misses Michael's goal, it will hardly be possible to recuperate from it, and human evolution will be derailed for a long time. The present age of Michael can therefore rightly be called 'the Apocalypse of the age of Michael'. – Yeshayahu Ben-Aharon
    In five lively, challenging lectures, Dr Ben-Aharon offers encouraging perspectives on the apocalyptic challenges facing humanity. The key Michaelic task for human beings today, he says, is to comprehend fully the new revelation of the etheric Christ. On the success of this depends humanity's resurrection from the abyss – from the grave of civilization. However, it can still be achieved, and the time is at hand! The author describes the global School of Spiritual Science's contemporary work to create a path to conscious recognition of the Christ and Michael impulses.
    Offering numerous fresh viewpoints into the trials of our time, The Time is at Hand! is an essential handbook for any serious student of anthroposophy. The talks (from 2017 and 2022) are titled: 'Ahrimanic Immortality, the Matrix and the Technological Singularity'; 'Michaelic Immortality'; 'The Two Apocalyptic Beasts and the Mystery of the Wound; 'Follow This Star'; and 'The Time is at Hand!'
