Denn Columban und sein Schüler Gallus, sie waren wesentliche Individualitäten in jenem großen, bedeutsamen Missionsweg, der seine Erfolge in der Christianisierung Europas dadurch wirksam zu machen versuchte, daß er Europa dazumal wie mit geistigen Wänden umgab und keinen Einfluß hereinkommen ließ von der Seite, die ich angedeutet habe. Und solche Individualitäten, wie Columban und sein Schüler Gallus, von dem dieser Ort hier seine Begründung und seinen Namen hat, sie sind diejenigen, die vor allen Dingen eingesehen haben: die zarte Pflanze der Christianisierung, sie kann in Europa nur ausgebreitet werden, wenn man Europa gleichsam mit einem Zaun umgibt in geistiger Beziehung. Ja, hinter den Vorgängen in der Weltgeschichte liegen tiefe, bedeutungsvolle Geheimnisse. Und die Geschichte, die in den Schulen gelehrt wird und gelernt wird, ist vielfach nur eine Fable convenue; denn zu den wichtigsten Tatsachen im Verständnisse der neueren Zeit in Europa gehört dieses, daß von den Jahrhunderten an, von denen von.Irland aus die Verbreitung der Christianisierung in Europa ging, bis namentlich ins 12. Jahrhundert, zugleich gearbeitet wurde daran, daß gerade die päpstlichen Edikte allmählich die Schiffahrt zwischen Europa und Amerika verpönt haben, aufgehoben haben, so daß der Zusammenhang mit Amerika für Europa vollständig vergessen worden ist. Man brauchte dieses Vergessen, damit die ersten Zeiten, in denen sich in Europa vorbereiten sollte der fünfte nachatlantische Zeitraum, in der richtigen Weise sich abwickeln konnten. Und erst dann, als die materialistische Zeit nun begann, da wurde Amerika neuerdings wiederum entdeckt, so wie man es heute erzählt: westlich — östlich; da wurde Amerika entdeckt unter dem Einfluß der Goldgier, unter dem Einfluß der rein materialistischen Kultur, mit welcher der Mensch eben in der fünften nachatlantischen Zeit zu rechnen hat, mit der er sich in das entsprechende Verhältnis zu setzen hat.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":298,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/178/1917-11-16/p041"}],"english":["GA 178/1917-11-16/p054","GA 178/1917-11-16/p055"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":298,"en_words":280,"ratio":0.94,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":10164,"original_word_count":10093,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Alice Wulsin","identified_edition":"MP1986","book_title":"Geographic Medicine","publisher":"Mercury Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA178/English/MP1986/19171116p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
