The Age of Revolution

Book Description
Here is a valuable overview of world history, from the eighteenth to twentieth centuries, including the French, American and Industrial revolutions.

Kovacs chooses pertinent stories to create a rich tapestry that shows the development of humankind, from medieval times—when every person had a fixed place in the social hierarchy—to the awakening of individuality in modern times.

In the Waldorf curriculum, this period of history is usually taught in class 8 (ages 13-14).

About the Author
Charles Kovacs was born in Austria. He left his native country in 1938 at the time of the Anschluss and joined the British Army in East Africa. After the War, he settled in Britain, and in 1956 he took over a class at the Rudolf Steiner School in Edinburgh, where he remained a class teacher until his retirement in 1976. He died in 2001. His extensive lesson notes have been a useful and inspiring resource material for many teachers. He is the author of Parsifal and the Search for the Grail (2002); Ancient Greece (2003); The Age of Revolution (2003); and Ancient Rome (2005).
