The two do not meet. As a result, grotesque connections are being formulated when dilettantism endeavours to establish links between research work in psychology and research work in physiology. And the dilettantism is of immense proportions, and equally great in both cases. The psychiatrists' own psychological dilettantism equals in magnitude that of physical dilettantism, but when both are the same in volume and operate jointly, they multiply each other. That, according to simple arithmetic, makes the square of dilettantism. So that, seen in the true light, psycho-analysis is the square of dilettantism, because it is the product of the multiplication of dilettantism by dilettantism.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

Die zwei kommen nicht zusammen. Und dadurch werden groteske Beziehungen aufgesucht zwischen dem, was man an Dilettantismus versucht in der Psychologie und dem, was man an Dilettantismus versucht in der Physiologie. Und der Dilettantismus ist ungeheuer groß und in beiden Fällen gleich groß. Der psychologische Dilettantismus ist bei den Psychiatern selber ebenso groß wie der physiologische Dilettantismus; wenn aber beide Größen gleich groß sind und zusammenarbeiten, so multipliziert es sich miteinander. Das ist der Dilettantismus im Quadrat, nach einer sehr einfachen Rechnung. So daß eigentlich die Psychoanalyse für eine wirkliche Anschauung eben der Dilettantismus im Quadrat ist, weil sie aus der Multiplikation des Dilettantismus mit Dilettantismus entsteht.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":155,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/84/1923-04-22/p032"}],"english":["GA 84/1923-04-22/p034"],"method":"length+anchor_constrained","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":155,"en_words":155,"ratio":1.0,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.9,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4753,"original_word_count":5285,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"LZ0290","book_title":"The Spiritual Development of Man","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA084/English/LZ0290/19230422p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"source_says_translator_unknown","note":"The source page itself says the translator is unknown.
