Blackboard drawings

A plate is one printed page of the edition, numbered within its lecture group as the edition numbers it (plate 9a follows plate 9; GA 306 has no plate 5, which the edition dropped). The edition's own contents lists are the authority for what is here; the images are the boards as the edition photographed them, with the caption strip cut away.

Kinds. Most plates are originals. The edition also prints a few slips of paper, listeners' copies of boards that were not kept, and in its last volume supplements, corrected reprints and plates it could not assign to a lecture.

Place in the lecture. A plate links to the paragraph of the lecture where the served German text marks the drawing, when it does, and the German paragraph can be matched to the English one; otherwise to the lecture; where the volume is served but the day's lecture is not, to the volume. Most plates are not marked in the texts the site serves, so most link to the lecture as a whole: 75 link to a paragraph, 1037 to a lecture, 10 to a volume. The 8 plates the edition assigns to no lecture are listed last, with their dates where the edition gives one.

Dates are the edition's. A remark is this site's English rendering of a note the edition prints beside the plate.

Rights. The drawings are Rudolf Steiner's and in the public domain (d. 1925). The photographs were published by the Rudolf Steiner Verlag in the edition named above; each plate names its volume and page.
