Hence Plato, for example, was able to give a clear account of how man is taken hold of, gripped, by moral impulses coming from the spiritual universe. Plato says that there exist four virtues. The whole of morality takes hold of the whole human being. But all that is naturally to be taken with the well-known grain of salt. Naturally, even though it grips the whole person, the human being is subsequently divided up into the particular virtues. The first virtue Plato mentions is wisdom—wisdom now understood as a virtue, not as science. Since wisdom as a virtue is related to the way truth is experienced, it takes hold of those forces that flow from the moral sphere to the head. Therefore it can be pictured like this. (See drawing.) And therefore Plato says: The head of the moral man is gripped by wisdom; the breast is gripped by the virtue of strength of heart ( *Starkmut*)—I cannot find a better word—strength of mind, or industriousness, but a kind of industriousness that includes the forces of the heart: an industriousness of the soul.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture V","site_heading":"Moral, Aesthetic, and Wisdom Streams in Human Evolution","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Wir wollen ihn betrachten, so wie er im Weltenall drinnensteht als moralischer Mensch, das heißt als Mensch, der an den Moralkräften des Weltenalls Anteil hat. Dann wollen wir ihn betrachten als Mensch, der an den ästhetischen Impulsen des Weltenalls Anteil hat in dem Sinne, wie wir gestern das betrachtet haben. Und dann wollen wir den Menschen betrachten, wie er an den Weisheitsimpulsen Anteil hat. Also wir wollen gewissermaßen eine psychische Physiologie — verzeihen Sie das etwas unsinnig gebildete Wort, aber Sie werden verstehen, was ich damit meine — entwerfen, die ja natürlich imaginativ gemeint ist. Wenn wir den Menschen, insofern er in der Moralitätssphäre drinnensteht, betrachten, da werden wir besonders an dasjenige erinnert, was ich gestern darlegte: daß die Griechen noch mehr das Verhältnis des Geistig-Seelischen und des Physischen gefühlt und empfunden haben, als es heute der Fall ist. Daher hat Plato zum Beispiel noch ganz deutlich dieses eigentümliche Verhältnis dargestellt, wie der Mensch erfaßt, ergriffen wird von den Moralitätsimpulsen aus dem geistigen Universum heraus. Plato sagt: Eigentlich gibt es vier Tugenden. Von der Gesamtmoralität wird der Gesamtmensch erfaßt. — Aber alles das ist natürlich mit dem bekannten grano salis zu nehmen. Natürlich würde, wenn der ganze Mensch erfaßt wird, er auch wiederum nach den einzelnen Tugenden abgeteilt. Die erste Tugend, von der Plato spricht, ist die Weisheit — Weisheit als Tugend jetzt genommen, nicht als Wissenschaft. Weil diese Weisheit als Tugend verwandt ist mit dem, was in der Wahrheit erlebt wird, so wenden sich die Kräfte, die gerade die Weisheit aus der Moralitätssphäre heraus ergreift, auch noch an das Haupt des Menschen, so daß wir die Sache so darstellen können: (Zeichnung 1). Plato sagte also: Es wird erfaßt beim moralischen Menschen der Kopfteil von der Weisheit, der Brustteil von dem, was man nennen könnte die Tugend der Herzhaftigkeit - ich kann kein besseres Wort finden -, Starkmut, Tüchtigkeit, aber solche Tüchtigkeit, daß die herzhaften Kräfte drinnen sind: seelische Tüchtigkeit.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":329,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/170/1916-08-06/p005"},{"locus":"GA 170/1916-08-06/p006","passage_number":6,"text":"![170-06](images/170-06.webp)","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":0,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/170/1916-08-06/p006"}],"english":["GA 170/1916-08-06/p005","GA 170/1916-08-06/p006"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":329,"en_words":335,"ratio":1.02,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.07,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5114,"original_word_count":4774,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"John F.
