Their value should be fully recognized. However, eurythmy aims to be something other than merely mimetic art and something other than merely dance. As in mimetic art and dance, you will see moving individuals or groups of people on stage. All the movements that occur in this context relate to the art of mime in such a way that one can say: the art of mime endeavors to clarify what is being said by adding gestures to the spoken word that are more personal than spoken language can be in a civilized society. But these gestures are actually signs for what can also be expressed through spoken language. Dance, on the other hand, is an outpouring of passion, of the element of will. And it comes about because what lives in the soul according to its nature of will is transferred into movement, just as movement in general is the expression, the revelation of human will. Eurythmy should now be a real, visible language or a truly visible song in its movements, so that what lives in the soul — lives in such a way that it expresses itself in spoken language and song when the mood and occasion are right — is revealed through gestures, through movement of the human body, in individuals or in groups of people. This comes about because, as human beings develop, they initially want to express what they experience inwardly through their whole moving being.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Eurythmy Performance","site_heading":null,"date":"1924-04-21","location":null,"word_count":251,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/277d/1924-04-21/p006","alignment_confidence":"medium","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2025","book_title":"The Origin and Development of Eurythmy 1923–1925","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA277d/English/SOL2025/19240421e01.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.

Sie sollen in ihrem Werte voll anerkannt werden. Allein - Eurythmie will eben etwas anderes sein als bloß mimische Kunst, und etwas anderes als bloß Tanzkunst. Sie werden wie bei der mimischen Kunst und auch wie bei der Tanzkunst den bewegten Menschen oder bewegte Menschengruppen auf der Bühne sehen. Alle die Bewegungen, die dabei zustande kommen, sie verhalten sich zu demjenigen, was mimische Kunst ist, so, dass man sagen kann: Die mimische Kunst bemüht sich, dasjenige zu verdeutlichen, was gesprochen wird, dadurch, dass sie dem Gesprochenen Gebärden hinzufügt, die mehr auf das persönliche Erleben gehen, als in einer zivilisierten Sprache die Lautsprache gehen kann. Aber diese Gebärden sind eigentlich Zeichen für dasjenige, was durch die Lautsprache ja auch ausgedrückt werden kann. Wiederum der Tanz ist ein Ausfließen-Lassen des Leidenschaftlichen, des Willenselementes. Und er kommt dadurch zustande, dass dasjenige, was in der Seele lebt seiner Willensnatur nach, in die Bewegung übergeführt wird, wie ja überhaupt die Bewegung der Ausdruck, die Offenbarung des menschlichen Willens ist. Eurythmie soll nun in ihren Bewegungen eine wirkliche, sichtbare Sprache oder ein wirklich sichtbarer Gesang sein, sodass dasjenige, was in der Seele lebt - lebt so, dass es sich bei entsprechender Stimmung und Gelegenheit zum Ausdruck bringt in der Lautsprache und im Gesange —, dass sich dasselbe durch Gebärde, durch Bewegung am menschlichen Leibe bei einzelnen oder in Menschengruppen zur Offenbarung bringt. Das kommt dadurch zustande, dass eigentlich der Mensch, indem er sich entwickelt, zunächst durch seinen ganzen bewegten Menschen auch wiederum dasjenige ausdrücken will, was er im Inneren erlebt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":263,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/277d/1924-04-21/p006"}],"english":["GA 277d/1924-04-21/p006"],"method":"identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":263,"en_words":251,"ratio":0.95,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":1718,"original_word_count":1707,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2025","book_title":"The Origin and Development of Eurythmy 1923–1925","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA277d/English/SOL2025/19240421e01.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.
