Such things might even appear to be sophistry. And yet such sophistries are very often what leads one to put the elements that are supposed to lead one to the questions in the appropriate way, to bring them together. For if one sees through such apparent sophistries in the right way, one will see through the whole threadbareness of the everyday concepts of “subject” and “object”, which have gradually been introduced into modern philosophical reflection. And if one gets into the right line of questioning, one will probably be led more and more to the path that I believe in, which I have taken in my writings “Truth and Science” and “Philosophy of Freedom,” where one does not take the starting point from the concepts of “subject” and “object”, but seeks something independently of these concepts that must lie beyond the sphere of subjectivity and objectivity: that is the function of thinking.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Solche Dinge könnten sogar sophistisch erscheinen. Und dennoc sind solche Sophismen sogar sehr häufig das, was einen darauf bringt, die Elemente, die einen darauf führen sollen, die Fragen in entsprechender Weise zu stellen, auch zusammenzubringen. Man wird nämlich, wenn man solche scheinbaren Sophismen in der richtigen Weise durchschaut, die ganze Fadenscheinigkeit der Alltagsbegriffe «Subjekt» und «Objekt», die allmählich in die moderne philosophische Betrachtung hineingebracht worden sind, durchschauen. Und man wird, wenn man in eine richtige Fragestellung hineinkommt, wohl immer mehr und mehr zu dem Weg, wie ich glaube, geführt werden, den ich in meinen Schriften «Wahrheit und Wissenschaft» und «Philosophie der Freiheit» eingeschlagen habe, wo man überhaupt zunächst nicht den Ausgangspunkt nimmt von den Begriffen «Subjekt» und «Objekt», sondern wo man unabhängig von diesen Begriffen etwas sucht, was über die Sphäre der Subjektivität und Objektivität hinaus gelegen sein muß: das ist die Funktion des Denkens.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":204,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/76/1921-04-04/p050"}],"english":["GA 76/1921-04-04/p050"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":204,"en_words":210,"ratio":1.03,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8785,"original_word_count":8635,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Stimulating Effect of Anthroposophy on the Individual Sciences","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA076/English/SOL2024/19210404p01.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.
