This question will not be answered in the affirmative. For after all, our time shows that we live in the epoch of sleeping souls, that we have been driven by gymnastics, and also by many other things that go beyond gymnastics – what has not been produced by sport! But the fact that the result of all this would be a strengthening of the whole human being, namely a strengthening of the initiative of human beings, cannot be affirmed. For it is all too clear that people have become more and more closed in on themselves, more and more inwardly lethargic, and that this inward-closed-ness and this inward-lethargy, this sleepiness of soul, is connected with the misfortunes that have manifested themselves so horribly in the last five to six years. We will only emerge from this, to which we must point, when we strive to strengthen the human being not only through physiological gymnastics, but also through psychological eurythmy, through soulful movement.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"53.

Diese Frage wird man nicht bejahen können. Denn schließlich zeigt ja doch gerade unsere Zeit, dass wir in der Epoche der schlafenden Seelen leben, dass wir zwar viel getrieben haben von Turnen, auch noch manches andere, was über das Turnen hinausgeht - was hat der Sport nicht alles hervorgebracht! Dass aber das Ergebnis von dem allem eine Erkraftung des ganzen Menschen wäre, namentlich eine Erkraftung der Initiative der Menschen, das darf nicht bejaht werden. Denn es ist nur allzu deutlich, dass die Menschen immer mehr und mehr in sich verschlossen geworden sind, immer innerlich träger und träger geworden sind und dass mit diesem Innerlich-verschlossenSein und mit diesem Träge-geworden-Sein, mit diesem Verschlafensein der Seelen das Unglück, das sich so gräulich ausgedrückt hat in den letzten fünf bis sechs Jahren, zusammenhängt. Herauskommen wird man aus dem, worauf da hingedeutet werden muss, erst dann, wenn man die Erkraftung des Menschen nicht nur anstrebt durch das physiologische Turnen, sondern durch die psychologische Eurythmie, durch das beseelte Sich-Bewegen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":280,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/277b/1920-03-27/p014"}],"english":["GA 277b/1920-03-27/p014"],"method":"structural_identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"unverified","length_check":{"de_words":280,"en_words":289,"ratio":1.03,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.11,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":2236,"original_word_count":2008,"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 1918–1920","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA277b/English/SOL2024/19200327e01.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.
