The first is that in the broadest circles today, especially when the topic is discussed – the relationship between science and anthroposophy in any respect – a widespread prejudice immediately arises, namely that the anthroposophy meant here wants to take up an opposing position to science – to the kind of science that has developed in the course of human history in recent centuries, and which reached its zenith in the last third of the 19th century, at least in terms of its way of thinking and methodology. But it is not the case that there is such an oppositional position, because this anthroposophy, as I mean it here, is precisely concerned with bringing to bear the best fundamental principles of the scientific will of modern times. And it endeavors to further develop precisely that human outlook and scientific human attitude that is needed in order to truly validate the recognition of conventional science.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"6.

Die erste besteht darin, daß in weitesten Kreisen heute, gerade wenn über das Thema gesprochen wird - über das Verhältnis von Wissenschaft und Anthroposophie in irgendeiner Beziehung -, dann sofort ein weit verbreitetes Vorurteil auftaucht, nämlich, daß die hier gemeinte Anthroposophie sich in irgendeine Oppositionsstellung begeben wolle zur Wissenschaft - zu dieser Wissenschaft wie sie sich heraufentwickelt hat in der Geschichte der Menschheit in den letzten Jahrhunderten, wie sie ihre Höhe ja erreicht hat im letzten Drittel des 19. Jahrhunderts, wenigstens in bezug auf die Denkweise und Methodologie. Es ist aber eben durchaus nicht der Fall, daß eine solche Oppositionsstellung vorliegt, denn diese Anthroposophie, wie ich sie hier meine, bemüht sich gerade darum, die besten prinzipiellen Grundlagen des wissenschaftlichen Wollens der neueren Zeit zur Geltung zu bringen. Und sie ist bemüht, daß gerade das weiter ausgebaut werde, was vorausgesetzt werden muß an menschlicher Anschauung, an wissenschaftlicher menschlicher Gesinnung, um im echten Sinne gerade die Anerkennung gebräuchlicher Wissenschaft zur Geltung zu bringen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":176,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/75/1922-05-11/p004"}],"english":["GA 75/1922-05-11/p004"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":176,"en_words":167,"ratio":0.95,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":16789,"original_word_count":16506,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Relationship between Anthroposophy and the Natural Sciences","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA075/English/SOL2024/19220511p01.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.
