For when this world-evolution of the German people was to be shaped into a personality, when the deepest, most intimate and at the same time most comprehensive and most living human and spiritual striving of this people was to be embodied in Goethe, then, I might say, he embodied in synthesis what had emerged with the greatest emphasis of one-sidedness in Fichte, Schelling and Hegel. But at the same time, by building up thoughts, I might say, with all the inwardness of the human soul and with all the powers of natural existence, living through them in the image of the human striving personality itself in Faust, [by characterizing him in such a way that as Goethe did] depict it, the universality of the human soul's striving for light could only emerge in modern times from [that] folk culture, which seeks the light at the center of the soul's life, while the other modern cultures seek the individual color nuances of the soul. We see, but we see the nature of the human ego as it is always creatively active, as it must intervene in every subsequent moment to create its being anew, to transform itself. We see this distinctly - only in all its broad vitality and in full abundance - I would say - the merely ideal in the human being embodied in Faust, in that Faust whose motto is: “Whoever strives, we can redeem him!” In that Faust, who is indeed presented to us as being in the concrete, in the immediately elementary, striving for what Fichte presents as theory. So that this Faust-I continually creates itself throughout the entire plot of Faust in order to successively insert its I into other spheres, other fields of world existence, in order to become related to other spheres, to other fields of world existence.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"1.

Denn als eine Persönlichkeit heraus erschaffen wollte aus dieser Weltentwicklung des deutschen Volkes dasjenige, was tiefstes, innerstes und zu gleicher Zeit umfassendstes und lebendigstes Menschheitsstreben und geistiges Weltstreben dieses Volkes ist, als Goethe dies darstellen wollte, da stellte er dar - ich möchte sagen - die Zusammenfassung desjenigen, was mit stärkster Betonung der Einseitigkeit in Fichte, Schelling, Hegel zutage getreten ist, er stellt es in Zusammenfassung dar. Aber zu gleicher Zeit, indem er - ich möchte sagen - Gedanken aufbaut mit aller Innerlichkeit menschlichen Seelenwesens und mit allen Kräften des natürlichen Daseins - durchlebt in dem Bilde der menschlich strebenden Persönlichkeit selber - in dem Faust, [indem er diesen so charakterisiert, dass - so wie Goethe es] darstellt - die Allseitigkeit des menschlichen Seelenlichtstrebens nur hervorgehen konnte in der neueren Zeit aus [jener] Volkskultur, die im Mittelpunkt des Seelenlebens das Licht [sucht], während die anderen neueren Kulturen die einzelnen Farbennuancen der Seele suchen. Wir sehen, aber eben ins unmittelbar Lebendige, ins ganz Persönliche, ins Intimste und zu gleicher Zeit - ich möchte sagen - in das Alltäglichste umgesetzt die Ich-Natur des Menschen, wie sie selbstschöpferisch immer tätig ist, wie sie in jedem folgenden Augenblick eingreifen muss, um ihr Sein neuerdings zu schaffen, um sich umzuschaffen. Wir sehen das ausgeprägt -, nur in ganzer breiter Lebendigkeit und in voller Fülle - ich möchte sagen - das bloß Ideelle im Menschlichen verkörpert im Faust, in jenem Faust, dessen Wahlspruch ja ist: «Wer immer strebend sich bemüht, den können wir erlösen!» In jenem Faust, der in der Tat uns so vorgeführt wird, dass er im Konkreten, im unmittelbar Elementarischen seiend das anstrebt, was Fichte als Theorie hinstellt. Sodass sich dieses Faust-Ich durch die ganze Fausthandlung hindurch fortwährend schafft, um im Schaffen immer mehr und mehr sein Ich nacheinander einzufügen anderen Sphären, anderen Feldern des Weltendaseins, um verwandt zu werden mit anderen Sphären, mit anderen Feldern des Weltendaseins.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":344,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/70b/1915-11-25/p048"}],"english":["GA 70b/1915-11-25/p048"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":344,"en_words":337,"ratio":0.98,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.06,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":13536,"original_word_count":12814,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Ways to a Knowledge of the Eternal Forces of the Human Soul","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA070b/English/SOL2024/19151125p01.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.
