You only need to open Goethe's Theory of Colors to see that Goethe starts out from the physiological colors, from the behavior of the eye, which he, however, basically considers differently, one might say, than it is considered today. Today, we actually look at the eye in such a way that we think of it as being separate from the whole human organism, that we sort of isolate it from this organism, that we look at it as an optical apparatus and then try to get to know how – when this eye is taken out of the organism, when it is looked at as an optical apparatus – how the impressions on the eye, the stimuli on the eye and so on are presented. Just try to visualize how this approach actually works. If you want to clarify something in relation to the eye, if you want to answer the question: How does the eye relate to any visible object? , with this mode of observation one can hardly do otherwise than to draw the eye itself in some average on the board, to lead lines from the object to the eye and so on; then one can still ask: How do the different parts of the eye relate to that which exerts a stimulus there?","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"12.

Sie brauchen ja nur die Goethesche Farbenlehre aufzuschlagen, und Sie werden sehen, daß Goethe zunächst ausgeht von den physiologischen Farben, von dem Verhalten des Auges, das er aber im Grunde genommen anders betrachtet, mit einer anderen Einstellung betrachtet, möchte man sagen, als man es heute tut. Heute betrachtet man das Auge eigentlich so, daß man es sich herausgenommen denkt aus dem ganzen menschlichen Organismus, daß man es gewissermaßen aussondert von diesem Organismus, daß man es als einen optischen Apparat betrachtet und nun versucht kennenzulernen, wie — wenn dieses Auge herausgenommen ist aus dem Organismus, wenn es als optischer Apparat betrachtet wird -, wie dann sich die Eindrücke auf das Auge, die Reize auf das Auge und so weiter darstellen. Versuchen Sie sich nur einmal zu vergegenwärtigen, wie diese Anschauungsweise eigentlich vorgeht. Wenn man sich irgend etwas gegenüber dem Auge verdeutlichen will, wenn man irgendwie die Frage beantworten will: Wie verhält sich das Auge zu irgendeinem sichtbaren Objekt? -, kann man ja bei dieser Anschauungsweise fast gar nicht anders, als das Auge selbst in irgendeinem Durchschnitt auf die Tafel zu zeichnen, von dem Objekt Linien zu führen nach dem Auge und so weiter; dann kann man sich noch fragen: Wie verhalten sich die verschiedenen Glieder des Auges zu demjenigen, was da einen Reiz ausübt?","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":239,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/73a/1921-01-12/p011"}],"english":["GA 73a/1921-01-12/p011"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":239,"en_words":240,"ratio":1.0,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.05,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":7170,"original_word_count":6799,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Scientific Disciplines and Anthroposophy","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA073a/English/SOL2024/19210112p01.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.
