This is how the current Marxist socialism would like to establish the education of the future. In Russia this has already happened. In the Lunatscharsky school reform there is something terrible. It is the death of all culture. Many dreadful things have come out of Bolshevism, but the most dreadful of all is the Bolshevist method of education, which would entirely eradicate all that former ages have contributed to human culture. This will not be achieved in the first generation but will certainly be attained in following generations, with the result that all culture will soon vanish from the face of the earth. Some people must see this. You have heard in this very room people singing a song of praise to Bolshevism, who have not the faintest idea that through it the Devil has entered socialism.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture IV","site_heading":"Will, Feeling, and the Inner Nature of Man","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.

Denken Sie sich nur einmal, es würde nach dem Ideal der gewöhnlichen marxistischen Sozialisten die Schule der Zukunft gestaltet werden. In Rußland ist es schon geschehen; daher ist dort die Lunatscharskische Schulreform etwas ganz Fürchterliches. Sie ist der Tod aller Kultur! Und wenn schon aus dem übrigen Bolschewismus sehr viel Schlimmes hervorgeht - das Schlimmste aus ihm wird die bolschewistische Unterrichtsmethode sein! Denn sie wird, wenn sie siegte, gründlich alles das ausrotten, was aus den früheren Zeiten an Kultur überkommen ist. Sie wird es nicht gleich in der ersten Generation erreichen, aber sie wird es bei den kommenden Generationen um so sicherer können, und dann wird sehr bald jegliche Kultur vom Erdboden verschwinden. Das müßten einige einsehen. Denn denken Sie sich, daß wir ja jetzt unter den dilettantischen Forderungen eines gemäßigten Sozialismus leben. Dahinein klingen die Klänge, die in der verkehrtesten Art den Sozialismus ausgestalten wollen. Gutes mit Schlimmem tönt da zusammen. Sie haben es ja in diesem Raume selbst gehört, haben Menschen gehört, die ein Loblied auf den Bolschewismus gesungen haben und die gar keine Ahnung davon haben, daß dadurch das Teuflische selbst in den Sozialismus hineingetrieben wird.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":206,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/293/1919-08-25/p023"}],"english":["GA 293/1919-08-25/p025"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":206,"en_words":153,"ratio":0.74,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5417,"original_word_count":5355,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Daphne Harwood and Helen Fox","identified_edition":"RSP1966","book_title":"The Study of Man","publisher":"Rudolf Steiner Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA293/English/RSP1966/19190825a01.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.
