And over the last few years, we have seen how our members who practice eurythmy have advanced the cause, how they have been able to add the resonance of feeling and will to it. The matter can be taken further, can gradually be brought into the public eye. However, it must be assumed that there will be terrible criticism of the matter; but that is only to be expected. We must persevere. But we should not believe that eurythmy, when it is said that it should be brought into the public eye, should be transferred into the world of contemporary philistinism. If you believe that anything serious can be done in today's educational institutions, which are permeated by the worst kind of philistinism, by introducing a part of it, you would be indulging in terrible illusions. What I meant yesterday by bringing it into the public sphere was that this art should be presented to the public by those who are skilled in it, and then we should wait and see how it is received. I did not mean that it should be transferred immediately into the philistine world. Transferring our cause to the vast land of philistinism, which now surrounds all endeavors that are found there only as isolated oases—the land of philistinism can only learn about things little by little in an extremely cautious manner and be impressed by them.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Address on Eurythmy","site_heading":null,"date":"1918-02-19","location":null,"word_count":254,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/277a/1918-02-19/p008","alignment_confidence":"medium","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Origin and Development of Eurythmy 1912–1918","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA277a/English/SOL2024/19180219p01.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.

Und wir haben im Laufe der letzten Jahre gesehen, wie unsere die Eurythmie treibenden Mitglieder die Sache vorwärtsgebracht haben, wie sie hinzufügen konnten zu der Sache auch die Gefühls- und Willensdurchtönung. Die Sache kann weitergetrieben werden, kann nach und nach übergehen so, dass sie auch vor die Öffentlichkeit hintritt. Es wird da aber vorausgesetzt werden müssen, dass furchtbar geschimpft werden wird über die Sache; allein das ist selbstverständlich. Es muss eben durchgehalten werden. Nicht aber soll man glauben, dass die Eurythmie, wenn von ihr gesagt wird, dass sie in die Öffentlichkeit gebracht werden soll, in die Welt des gegenwärtigen Philistertums übergeleitet werden [soll]. Wenn Sie glauben sollten deshalb, dass man in den von der schlimmsten Philisterhaftigkeit heute durchzogenen Unterrichtsanstalten irgendetwas machen kann im Ernste, indem man ein Teilweises einführt, so würden Sie sich dadurch furchtbaren Illusionen hingeben. Was ich gestern gemeint habe mit Übertritt in die Öffentlichkeit, bezog sich darauf, dass diese Kunst von denen, die diese Kunst gut können, vor die Öffentlichkeit hingestellt wird und abgewartet wird, wie diese Kunst aufgenommen wird. Dass man gleich in die philiströse Welt die Sache überführen soll, war nicht gemeint. Das Überführen unserer Sache in das weitausgedehnte Land Philistertum, das jetzt alle Bestrebungen umgibt, die nur wie einzelne Oasen sich darinnen vorfinden - das Land Philistertum kann nur in äußerst vorsichtiger Weise von den Sachen nach und nach etwas erfahren und beeindruckt werden davon.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":251,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/277a/1918-02-19/p008"}],"english":["GA 277a/1918-02-19/p008"],"method":"identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":251,"en_words":254,"ratio":1.01,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":1533,"original_word_count":1498,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Origin and Development of Eurythmy 1912–1918","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA277a/English/SOL2024/19180219p01.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.
