Working the Word is only possible through the contributions and help of the following people: Raymon Ford who enrolled in a course with us many years ago and saw the possibility of extending our work into the world. Through his generous ongoing support we continue to realize our vision of the School of Integral Art. Stefan Szo our webmaster whose insights into the subtle world of online communications and its possibilities to create new social forms mark him as an artist of the future. Janet Blagg our editor who has a deep and soulful connection with the great stories of the world and a fierce eye for the ‘right word’. Ann Reeves long-time supporter and fellow traveller whose close link with the impulse of our work has brought us more than swiftly typed manuscripts. Maggie White for her inspired suggestion to make ‘Working the Word’ available as an online course. Jenny Hill for her support as a friend and inspiration as a colleague. Scott Benjamin, our friend and photographer extraordinaire who brings colour to the life of our materials, online & printed. I would also like to personally acknowledge the following personalities whose contributions to the realm of language have shaped my own vision: Rudolf Steiner whose spiritual research, artistic impulses and many practical contributions have been the major inspiration of my life and work. Paul Matthews of Emerson College for first introducing me to the magic of creative writing as well as for inspiring some of the exercises in Lessons One and Three through his excellent book on creative writing, Sing me the Creation. Owen Barfield who through his brilliant enquiry into the co-evolution of language and meaning has deepened my own understanding of the word. Georg Kuhlewind who through his philosophic work has bridged the gap between word and logos. John Gee for his brilliant collection of literary texts made for the London School of Speech Formation and Dramatic Art. Kenneth Koch American poet and creative writing pioneer who has contributed to Lessons 2 and 3 through his book Wishes, Lies and Dreams. Dawn Langman, Maisie Jones, Christopher Garby and Jeff Norris from the London School of Speech Formation and Dramatic Art for introducing me to the spirit of the English language. The Students of Working the Word who have contributed through their creative writing. - Horst Kornberger, Director, SofIA |
