CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Rudolf of Habsburg Rudolf was shrewd enough to abstain from attempting forcibly to increase his constitutional powers, and contented himself with preserving such domains and rights as were still left to the crown. But it was not the warlike measures of Rudolf, but the defeat of Siegfried near Worringen in 1288 by the Duke of Brabant in the quarrel concerning the inheritance of Duke Walram of Limburg that curbed the ambitious efforts of the archbishop. Rudolf was more successful in his efforts (1289) to settle the disputes in the House of Wettin. www.newadvent.org /cathen/13218b.htm   (1009 words)

And it is credibly reported of him that he took deliberate steps to eliminate it, not even rejecting the help of alcohol, in order to clear the decks for the new clairvoyance it was his destiny both to predict and to develop.      Rudolf Steiner was in fact not merely a phenomenally educated and articulate philosopher but also a Man of Destiny; and I believe it is this fact that is so grievously delaying his recognition. eyelight.webservepro.com /anthroposophy/introRS.html   (1113 words)

Biodynamic Farming and Gardening Association (BDA) Rudolf Steiner Biography By the time he was 18, in 1879, the Steiner family moved near Vienna, so that Rudolf could attend the Technical Institute, then one of the foremost scientific universities in the world. By 1902, when he turned forty-two, Rudolf Steiner had enjoyed a successful career as an editor of important editions of the work of Goethe and Nietzsche, as a philosopher, a critic, and editor of a prestigious cultural magazine, and he had met many of the important figures of the time. But he had felt it necessary to remain silent about his inner life, his clairvoyant abilities, and what he considered to be his mission in life, which was to contribute to a cultural renewal which would bring art, science, and religion together in a new way. www.biodynamics.com /steiner.html   (3374 words)

"WHAT IS SCIENCE?" At about the same time the 36 year old Rudolf Virchow (right, somewhat older) formulates his cellular pathology in the field of medicine ("Die Cellularpathologie in ihrer Begründung auf physiologische Gewebslehre") (1858), the theory that all diseases have their roots in pathological changes in individual cells of the diseased organism. A pioneering contribution to develop the attempt, begun by Goethe, further, was later made by Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), at first in a number of treatises, dealing with the theory of knowledge (1886/1979, 1892/1980, 1894/1987), and later in a number of other fields of science and practical life. The results, in the form of the possibilities to deepen the process of acquiring knowledge that he demonstrated (1904-5/1982, 1905-8/1979, 1910/1989, 1913/1987) and later the extent of the research results that came out of it, can make an overwhelming (on pure "physicalists" for different reasons often indigestible) impression, when you start to dig into them. hem.passagen.se /thebee/SCIENCE/Science.htm   (4317 words)
