When one looks back over the experiences, of—if I may use a pedantic and philistine expression—the philosophic zealot of the fifties, sixties and seventies of the nineteenth century, perhaps even later, which the central Europeans could have, it is essentially as follows. Looking at the time of German philosophy's blossoming, you look back at the great philosophic era of the Fichtes, Schellings, and Hegels; surrounding you there had been a world of the educated and the scholars, a world which this philosophic era thoroughly dismisses and which in the rising scientific world view sees what should be taking the place of the earlier philosophic observations. One admires the magnitude of the elevation of thoughts found in a Schelling, one admires the energy and force of Fichte's development of thoughts, one can perhaps also develop a feeling for the pure comprehensive, insightful thoughts of Hegel, but one would more or less consider this classical time of German philosophy as something subdued.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"3.

Jahrhunderts, vielleicht auch noch später, als Mitteleuropäer haben konnte, so sind es im wesentlichen diese: Man blickte zurück auf die Blütezeit deutscher philosophischer Entwicklung, man blickte zurück auf die große Philosophenzeit Fichtes, Schellings, Hegels; man hatte um Sich eine gebildete und ge[e}lrte Welt, welche diese Philosophenzeit als etwas durchaus Abgetanes betrachtete und welche in der heraufkommenden naturwissenschaftlichen Weltanschauung dasjenige sah, was an die Stelle früherer philosophischer Betrachtungen treten sollte. Man bewunderte die Größe der Gedankenerhebung, wie sie bei einem Schelling hervortrat, man bewunderte die Energie und die Kraft Fichtescher Gedankenentwicklung, man hatte vielleicht auch ein Gefühl für das rein Umfassende, Scharfsinnige Hegelschen Denkens, aber man betrachtete mehr oder weniger dieses klassische Zeitalter deutscher Philosophie doch als etwas Überwundenes.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":220,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/81/1922-03-07/p005"}],"english":["GA 81/1922-03-07/p005"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":220,"en_words":227,"ratio":1.03,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.98,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5108,"original_word_count":5205,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Hanna von Maltitz","identified_edition":"eLib2018","book_title":"The Impulse for Renewal in Culture and Science","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA081/English/eLib2018/19220307p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line"},"entity_parity":{"status":"ok","checked_against":["GA 81/1922-03-07/p005"],"missing_from_translation":[],"present_only_in_translation":[],"bead_confidence":"high","note":"Every load-bearing name in the German counterpart appears in this English passage.
