Denn Sie wissen ja alle, wir leiden heute eigentlich — vielleicht nehmen Sie mir das Wort »leiden« übel, aber ich muß es so empfinden -, wir leiden heute unter der materialistischen Weltanschauung. Diese Weltanschauung besteht nicht nur darin, daß man gewissermaßen nur das Materielle gelten läßt, sondern sie besteht ja darin, daß man die ganze Welt auf atomistische Tätigkeit zurückführt. Dabei kommt es nicht darauf an, ob man sich diese Atome so denkt, wie man sie sich noch in den achtziger Jahren des 19. Jahrhunderts gedacht hat, also kleine elastische Körperchen von einer unbekannten Materialität, oder ob man sie wie heute als elektrische Kraftentwicklung, elektrische Kraftzentren denkt. Es kommt einfach darauf an, daß man im Materialismus schon das Materielle, dies wird dann auch auf die Werkzeuge des Geistig-Seelischen übertragen, als aus kleinsten Teilen zusammengesetzt und abhängig von dieser Tätigkeit der kleinsten Teile denkt. Das ist ja heute schon so weit gekommen, daß man sich gar nicht mehr bewußt ist, daß man es da mit Hypothesen zu tun hat, sondern die meisten Menschen glauben, das sei ein sicheres wissenschaftliches Resultat, daß Atome den Erscheinungen der Außenwelt zugrunde liegen. Woher ist es gekommen, daß in unserem Zeitalter die Menschen, ich möchte sagen, die Neigung entwickelt haben für die Atomistik? Es ist daher gekommen, daß man in unserem Zeitalter mit den Kindern zu wenig analytische Tätigkeit entwickelt hat. Würde man mit den Kindern jene analysierende Tätigkeit entwickeln, die vom fertigen einheitlichen Wortbilde ausgeht und zu den Buchstaben hin analysiert, dann würde das Kind in dem Alter, wo es darnach begehrt, den Drang nach Analyse betätigen, und der bliebe nicht für die spätere Betätigung des Ausdenkens von Atomstruktur und so weiter. Es ist einfach die Unbefriedigtheit des analytischen Triebes, der unseren Materialismus so fördert. Würden wir in der Tat den analytischen Trieb in der Weise befriedigen, wie ich es hier angedeutet habe, durch die Analyse des ganzen Wortbildes in Buchstaben, dann würde man durchaus die Menschen ablenken von den Sympathien für die materialistische Weltanschauung.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":352,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/301/1920-05-05/p007"}],"english":["GA 301/1920-05-05/p015"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"partial","length_check":{"de_words":352,"en_words":68,"ratio":0.19,"partial":true},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.91,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5311,"original_word_count":5848,"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/AP2001/19200505d01.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.
