A Living Library of Active Hope with Bernardette Castilho - Episode 3

In this Living Book conversation we deep dive into the life of Matilda of Canossa, an 11th-century Italian countess with Bernardette Castilho.

Bernardette Castilho brings her book to the Living Library, Bernardette's travels using the 12 senses, a concept from anthroposophy, in places such as France, Germany, Italy, and Egypt, and places connected to women such as Matilda of Canossa, Mary Magdalene, and the Templars. Join us in reflecting on how a historical person's biography could be a doorway into discovering the self with others.

Highlights from the conversation:

Matilda's importance as a historical figure and her role in the history of women's rights.

●The interconnectedness of personal research and self-discovery.

Overall, Bernardet's episode demonstrates that active hope can be found in the act of discovery, the study of history, and the exploration of connections between the past and the present, all of which can inspire personal and societal transformation.
