Of course, I do not mean just physical inheritance. The honest and upright Avenarius taught a philosophy which, after a relatively short time, led to the barbarization of Europe. It is important not to simply accept abstract judgments when we want to see what value a viewpoint has for human development. Instead we must look into the way that viewpoint takes effect. An important responsibility of all education is to look at what will become of what we do in the classroom in twenty or thirty years. All education has the task of placing itself consciously in human development, but we cannot do that without a thorough understanding of the human being, an understanding that spiritual science can give to a renewed natural science. A natural science renewed through spiritual science will not be some fantasy or figment of the imagination. Rather it will provide a good understanding of the material human organism as the physical vehicle for the soul and spirit.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

Der brave, bürgerliche Avenarius hat eine Philosophie gelehrt, die nach verhältnismäßig kurzer Zeit tatsächlich zur Barbarisierung Europas führen muß. Es handelt sich darum, daß man nicht bloß nach abstrakten Urteilen sich richtet, wenn man einsehen will, was für die Menschheitsentwickelung irgendeine Anschauung wert ist, sondern daß man hineinschauen kann in die Art und Weise, wie Anschauungen wirken. Darauf zu sehen, was in 20, 25, 30 Jahren wird aus dem, was wir im Schulzimmer tun, das ist eine wichtige Pflicht aller Pädagogik. Denn alle Pädagogik hat die Aufgabe, sich bewußt in die Menschheitsentwickelung hineinzustellen. Das kann man nicht ohne eine gründliche Menschenerkenntnis. Diese Menschenerkenntnis, die muß eine durch Geisteswissenschaft erneuerte Naturwissenschaft geben. Diese durch Geisteswissenschaft erneuerte Naturwissenschaft wird nicht ein Hirngespinst von Phantastereien sein, sondern sie wird gerade ein gutes Erkennen sein des menschlichen materiellen Organismus als physischen Träger des Seelen- und Geisteslebens.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":192,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/301/1920-04-22/p011"}],"english":["GA 301/1920-04-22/p014"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":192,"en_words":194,"ratio":1.01,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.89,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5026,"original_word_count":5630,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Ruth Pusch and Gertrude Teutsch","identified_edition":"AP2001","book_title":"The Renewal of Education","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA301/English/AP2001/19200422d01.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.
