Two traits, wonderfully real in this sensitive beauty, we can hardly find them in any other mind: the six-year-old son of a simple, rural man is first of all a decent student; and because he is such a good student, he is given the book “Gehörnte Siegfried” by his father as a Christmas reward - he can already read. It soon becomes apparent that Johann Gottlieb Fichte is becoming somewhat inattentive in his studies; he is reproached for this. We see him one day standing by the stream that flows past his parents' house, throwing into it the “Gehörnte Siegfried”, which has become so dear to him, on which he has pinned his entire soul. And when his father comes along, the father realizes the reason for the boy's strange behavior: he could not tolerate, in the face of the iron concept of duty that was already living in him at the root of his soul, that what was dear to him as a human being, as a personality, should remain with him if he could violate his duty over it. Thus, even the boy Fichte, the six-year-old boy, feels trapped in a world that is, I would say, completely permeated by forces of duty.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"10.

Zwei Züge, wunderschön wirklich in dieser sinnigen Schönheit, wir können sie kaum bei einem andern Geiste wiederfinden: Der sechsjährige Sohn eines einfachen, bäuerlichen Mannes ist zunächst ein ordentlicher Schüler; und weil er ein so guter Schüler ist, wird ihm zu Weihnachten als Belohnung - er kann schon lesen - das Buch vom «Gehörnten Siegfried» vom Vater geschenkt. Es zeigt sich in der nächsten Zeit, dass Johann Gottlieb Fichte etwas unaufmerksamer wird im Lernen; er bekommt Vorwürfe darum. Wir sehen ihn stehen eines Tages an dem Bache, der vorbeifließt an dem Hause seiner Eltern, hineinwerfend den «Gehörnten Siegfried», der ihm lieb, so lieb geworden ist, an dem er seine ganze Seele aufgerichtet hat, hineinwerfend in den Bach. Und als der Vater dazukommt, da merkt der Vater, was der Grund ist dieses sonderbaren Benehmens des Knaben: Er konnte gegenüber dem schon damals in ihm lebenden eisernen Begriff der Pflicht, die an die Wurzel der Seele ging, nicht vertragen, dass das, was ihm als Mensch, als Persönlichkeit lieb ist, bei ihm bleiben sollte, wenn er darüber seine Pflicht verletzen konnte. So fühlt sich drinnenstehend in der Welt, die für ihn - ich möchte sagen - ganz durchsetzt ist von Pflichtkräften, schon der Knabe Fichte, der sechsjährige Knabe.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":213,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/70b/1916-02-19/p038"}],"english":["GA 70b/1916-02-19/p038"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":213,"en_words":214,"ratio":1.0,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":14379,"original_word_count":13871,"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/SOL2024/19160219p01.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.
