The drama depicts her quite simply as a woman, but to see her solely as a female human being is not to see the whole of her. These medieval poets are misunderstood by modern interpretations which state that everything simply depicts the material world. They tell us, for instance, that Dante's Beatrice is no more than a gentle female creature. Some interpretations, on the other hand, miss the actual situation by going in the opposite direction, lifting everything up allegorically into a spiritual sphere. But at that time the spiritual pictures and the physical creatures of the earth were not as widely separated as they are in the minds of modern critics today. So when Justina makes her debut in Calderón's drama, we may permit ourselves to think of the element of justice which pervades the whole world. This was not then as abstract as it is now, for now it is found between the covers of tomes which the lawyers can take down from their shelves. Jurisprudence was then felt to be something living.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture IX","site_heading":"Dead Thoughts and Living Spirit: The Mystery of Golgotha's Answer","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.

Hier haben wir den Hinweis auf etwas, was im Drama ganz menschlich dargestellt wird als ein weibliches Wesen, was wir aber doch, wenn wir es bloß als ein weibliches Wesen auffassen, eben nicht voll erfassen. Denn diese mittelalterlichen Dichter werden nicht richtig verstanden, wenn man so, wie das ihre neueren Erklärer tun, immer sagt: Da muß nur das ganz derb materiell Konkrete aufgefaßt werden; wir dürfen zum Beispiel bei der Beatrice des Dante an nichts anderes denken als an ein weiches, weibliches Wesen. - Oder aber die Erklärer gehen an dem Richtigen auch vorbei, indem sie wiederum alles allegorisieren, in eine geistige Sphäre hinaufheben. So weit voneinander, wie für die Köpfe der modernen Erklärer, waren eben damals die geistigen Bilder und die wirklichen Erdenwesen noch nicht. Und so dürfen wir, indem da in dem Calderón-Drarma Justina auftritt, wiederum an die die Welt durchziehende Gerechtigkeit denken, die eben nicht so etwas Abstraktes war wie das, was heute auch die Juristen nicht mehr haben, sondern was in ihrer Bibliothek steht und was sie herausnehmen in Form von einzelnen Bänden.
