The Child with Special Needs : Letters and Essays on Curative Education, Paperback / softback Book

The Child with Special Needs : Letters and Essays on Curative Education Paperback / softback

Edited by Peter Selg

Part of the Karl K nig Archive series

Paperback / softback

Description

Karl K nig, the founder of Camphill, was a prolific lecturer and writer on a wide range of subjects from anthroposophy and Christology through social questions and curative education to science and history.

The Karl K nig Archive are working on a programme of publishing these works over the coming years. This is the fourth book to be published in the series. In this remarkable collection of Karl K nig's letters and essays, K nig considers and discusses the fundamentals of special needs education.

He shows that there are three core aspects to a successful holistic education and healing approach: firstly, a positive social environment, which in the context of Camphill is achieved through small family units of carers and children; secondly, that carers' work is based on an insightful understanding of the nature and potential of each individual child and disability; and thirdly that medical treatment is imbued with courage to keep believing that the impossible is possible.
