The Christian theologians of the Middle Ages who still subscribed to the existing traditions—for it was only orthodox Church doctrine that maintained that man consisted of body and soul, whilst the alchemists and others who were still familiar with the old traditions knew of course that he was a trichotomy—these theologians knew how difficult it was to hold orthodox opinions whilst at the same time they had to admit that the heretical doctrine of man's trichotomy contained a kernel of truth. We see the frantic attempts of these theologians to evade this issue. If we do not recognize this dilemma we shall fail altogether to understand mediaeval theology.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture I","site_heading":"Reality-Based Thinking and the Spirit's Suppression","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.

Die christlichen Theologen des Mittelalters, die noch mitten drinnen lebten in den fortlaufenden Traditionen — denn eigentlich war es nur rechtgläubige Kirchenlehre, daß der Mensch aus Leib und Seele besteht, während die Alchimisten und die anderen Leute, die noch mit den alten Traditionen vertraut waren, selbstverständlich wußten, daß der Mensch aus Leib, Seele und Geist besteht -, sie wußten außerordentlich schwer den Weg zu finden, rechtgläubig zu sein auf der einen Seite und auf der anderen Seite doch anerkennen zu müssen, daß hinter den ketzerischen Lehren, die überall lebten von der Gliederung des Menschen in Leib, Seele und Geist, etwas steckt. Wir sehen überall, wie sich gerade die christlichen Theologen des Mittelalters wenden und drehen und nicht zurechtkommen, um, wie sie sagten, die sogenannte Trichotomie, die Gliederung des Menschen in drei Teile, zu vermeiden.

Und weil im zwanzigsten Jahrhundert sich so manches abspielen wird, von dem man wissen muß, wenn man die jetzige Zeit verstehen will, so muß auch auf dieses wieder hingewiesen werden. Sehen Sie, ursprünglich - also wenn wir dasjenige, was in dieser verhältnismäßig späteren Zeit entstanden ist, «ursprünglich» nennen -, gliederte man den Menschen in Leib, Seele und Geist. Die Entwickelung war so weit gediehen, daß im neunten Jahrhundert der Geist abgeschafft werden konnte. Nun aber geht die Sache weiter. Man merkt sie nur heute noch nicht ordentlich, weil man ja überhaupt solche gewichtigen Dinge, wie die ganze Umwandlung des Denkens zum Beispiel von Saint-Martin bis heute gar nicht ins Auge faßt. Die Sache geht weiter, und es ist nicht allein damit getan, daß der Geist nur abgeschafft worden ist, die Menschheit tendiert dahin, auch die Seele abzuschaffen. Nach dieser Richtung sind ja bis jetzt nur Präliminarien geschehen, Vorboten, aber die Zeit ist heute schon reif auch für das Abschaffen der Seele. Nur macht sich der Mensch solche wichtigen Tendenzen, die in der Zeit liegen, nicht klar. Wir haben schon gewichtige Entwickelungsmomente, welche vorbereiten das Abschaffen der Seele. Konzilien wird man ja nicht so wie im neunten Jahrhundert veranstalten, die Dinge vollziehen sich heute anders. Ich muß immer wieder bemerken: ich kritisiere diese Dinge nicht, ich stelle nur die Tatsachen vor Ihre Seele.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":246,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/175/1917-03-27/p022"}],"english":["GA 175/1917-03-27/p020","GA 175/1917-03-27/p021"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":436,"en_words":371,"ratio":0.85,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.97,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6812,"original_word_count":7035,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"A.
