with Andrew Welburn

Music can catch our deepest emotions; it can express clairvoyant intimations of the harmony of the universe; its magic can stir our limbs to work, to march, to dance.  It certainly goes back to the earliest stages of civilisation and the Mysteries which guided them.  In fact, it goes back to our very origins as human beings and to forms of humanity that even preceded ours.  The Neanderthals, Steiner's Atlanteans, had a musical consciousness that lived in their memories and expressed itself in song-like speech.  When they interbred with 'modern humans' in the Stone Age, they gave us an incredible gift.  Did they seek us - or did we seek them? Let's try to remember.

Join us from 6.15 pm in the bookshop for a book signing of Andrew's latest book Neanderthals and Atlantis.

Andrew has been an academic in the fields of English Literature and biblical interpretation and history. A life-long Anthroposophist, he has written several books on Rudolf Steiner’s philosophy, esotericism, and Christianity, and on the prophet Zarathustra.
