Thus, in the whole consciousness of Herman Grimm, there was something about Goethe that was truly capable of taking Goethe's spirit so universally that Goethe could appear to him as the spiritual emperor, the emperor of spiritual life. And in a different way, my dear friends, than one is otherwise accustomed to in the world, the free personality, the complete free reign of the personality, the self-assurance, is expressed in someone like Herman Grimm. One can truly say: In Herman Grimm lives something that allowed him to take external circumstances as they are, but on the other hand always let him base himself on what he had within as his spiritual life; and he judged all worldly circumstances according to the security of this spiritual life.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"An Age of Expectation","site_heading":null,"date":"1914-10-07","location":null,"word_count":169,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/156/1914-10-07/p030","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"Singles","book_title":null,"publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA156/English/Singles/19141007p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line"},"edition_coverage":{"de":["original"],"en":["English"]},"available_versions":[{"lang":"de","edition":"original","edition_basis":null,"is_original":true,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/156/1914-10-07/p030"},{"lang":"en","edition":"English","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/156/1914-10-07/p030","paragraph_aligned":true}],"record":{"record_type":"unknown","scope":"volume","note":"How this text was taken down (shorthand transcript, listeners' notes or manuscript) is not on record here.

So war im ganzen Bewußtsein Herman Grimms über Goethe etwas gegeben, was wirklich geeignet war, Goethes Geist so universell zu nehmen, daß Goethe ihm erscheinen konnte wie der geistige Kaiser, der Kaiser des Geisteslebens. Und in anderer Weise, meine lieben Freunde, als man das sonst in der Welt gewohnt ist, spricht sich aus bei so jemandem wie Herman Grimm die freie Persönlichkeit, das ganze freie Walten der Persönlichkeit, die Selbstsicherheit. Man darf wirklich sagen: In Herman Grimm lebt etwas, was ihn die äußeren Verhältnisse nehmen ließ, wie sie zu nehmen sind, auf der anderen Seite ihn aber immer fußen ließ auf dem, was er als sein Geistesleben in sich hatte; und alle weltlichen Verhältnisse beurteilte er nach der Sicherheit dieses Geisteslebens.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":169,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/156/1914-10-07/p030"}],"english":["GA 156/1914-10-07/p030"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":169,"en_words":169,"ratio":1.0,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8155,"original_word_count":7855,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"Singles","book_title":null,"publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA156/English/Singles/19141007p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line"},"entity_parity":{"status":"ok","checked_against":["GA 156/1914-10-07/p030"],"missing_from_translation":[],"present_only_in_translation":[],"bead_confidence":"high","note":"Every load-bearing name in the German counterpart appears in this English passage.
