Beschreibung

Articles and Lectures is a compilation of F. M. Alexander’s articles, published letters and lectures on the Alexander Technique. The book consists of six sections. Early Articles: The origins and development of the F. M. Alexander Technique between 1894 and 1910 can be traced in these early papers. Starting with his observations on the art of elocution, they show how Alexander changed the emphasis from breathing to ‘motive power,’ the correct mental attitude and, ultimately, conscious control. Published Letters: These are letters written in response to medical articles or to reviews of his books. They address typical misunderstandings and misinterpretations of his technique. Lectures: Three lectures survive of which two are reported almost verbatim. They were given informally and reveal Alexander’s spontaneity when talking about his technique. Teaching Aphorisms: These aphorisms, taken from Alexander’s lessons, summarize important principles of his teaching and make general observations about use and conscious control. Alexander and the Doctors: Consists of draft material for the unfinished book by Ron Brown. There is a foreword, and a chapter which deals with the misunderstood rôles of ‘treatment’ and physiology in the Technique. Autobiographical Sketch: Covering Alexander’s life until his departure for London in 1904, this draft is not only a unique history of Alexander’s early life and career, but it is also a fascinating insight into the man behind the Technique. It is a portrait of an unusual and individualistic character.
