Ita Wegman, MD, founded and directed the first anthroposophical medical clinic in the world--the Clinical-Therapeutic Institute in Arlesheim near Basel, Switzerland. This photographic documentation was compiled to mark the centenary of the clinic, which began its work in June of 1921. The book offers a pictorial introduction to Wegman's life and work.
Photographs from her youth in Indonesia, her student days, her international travels, and her professional and educational activities in Switzerland, and other places, provide the reader with detailed and vivid insight into the various phases of her career. Timetables place the individual photographs, letters, and historical documents in the context of Ita Wegman's biography and work.
In English and German.
"Even today, much too little is known about how resolutely Ita Wegman conducted herself during the period of German fascism and during the Second World War, how early she saw through National Socialism, and the extent to which she provided escape and survival aid to endangered people, among them numerous Jewish colleagues; how she saved anthroposophical-curative education institutes in Germany and how, along with her co-workers, she carried on caring for the children and adolescents who had been entrusted to them."
