Correspondence with Edith Maryon 1912–1924

GA 263 — 18 November 1921, Hildesheim

Letter from Edith Maryon

Edith Maryon to Rudolf Steiner

Sculptor's studio, Goetheanum
Nov. 18, 1921

Dear and esteemed teacher,

I am sending you a copy of the Teachers' Course program in case you have not yet received one. Mrs. Mackenzie wrote to me today that she is bringing at least 25 people, some have canceled for various reasons, but others are coming; it will probably only be known at the last moment how many can come from England. She gets a reduction of £2.00 per person from the railway for a group of 25, and that will help; she says that others will probably be able to come. She is giving a lecture on “Education from a Spiritual Standpoint” for the Anthroposophical Society on November 24 and at the Bloomsbury Club on December 7 on “Education as a Fine Art”.

I am very busy with ordering rooms, organizing rooms, etc. Today I visited Dr. Grosheintz about rooms and found her in bed, with a cold (and a very unsightly rash on her face!), otherwise in a very good mood.

Mrs. Mackenzie writes that Flossie is doing good work in London and will hold a small demonstration on December 10.

There is not much else to report. We still don't have the stoves in the studio.

I am thinking a lot about Berlin, and soon about the trip to Kristiania, and I wish I could be there too. I do hope you won't catch cold in the bitter cold. I will be glad when Berlin is over. Hopefully it won't be necessary to give lectures in Munich.

With best regards

Edith Maryon
