Science arose at the same time when the Mysteries which I have just described lost their importance. You know that Western philosophy and science, science proper, began with Thales. That is the time when it first developed out of the former fullness of the life of the Mysteries. Then also began what in the Western sense is conceived of as art; for Greek dramatic art developed itself out of the Mysteries. Whereas in India, up to the time of the Egyptian cult,[^10] one was concerned with the suffering and death of gods, with the great Greek tragedian-poets, such as Aeschylus, Sophocles, etc., we are dealing with individual human beings, who are images of the great Godhead. Through these human beings, the pupils of the Mysteries reconstructed the suffering, struggling and needy Godhead, thus displaying God to the human audience through their human imagery.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":166,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/93/1906-01-02/p023","witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"John M.

The expressions which he employs for tragedy [by way of explaining it] are a dim reflection of what the pupils learnt in the Mystery [schools]. Remember how Lessing investigated the soul forces of fear and compassion that are to be aroused through tragedy. That has furnished the material for many a great and learned discussion since the days of Lessing. [For the Mystery pupil] these emotions would be aroused in reality, when God was portrayed to him in his passage through the world. The passions present [deep] in the human soul were thereby straightforwardly stirred up and drawn out, just as one induces a fever and brings it to its culmination. This led to purification so as to be able to proceed to rebirth. All this appeared in shadow images in the ancient Greek tragedies. Just as with science, so has art, too, developed out of these ancient Mysteries.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":176,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/93/1906-01-02/p024","witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"John M.

Sie wissen, daß die abendländische Philosophie und Wissenschaft, die eigentliche Wissenschaft mit Tales beginnt. Das ist die Zeit, als sie sich aus der einstigen Fülle des Mysterienlebens heraus entwickelte. Da begann auch das, was man im abendländischen Sinne als Kunst auffaßt: aus den Mysterien heraus entwickelte sich dann die griechische dramatische Kunst. Während man es in Indien bis zum ägyptischen Kultus zu tun hatte mit der leidenden und sterbenden Gottheit, hat man es bei den großen griechischen Tragödiendichtern - bei Äschylos, Sophokles und so weiter — mit einzelnen Personen zu tun, welche Abbilder sind der großen Gottheit, durch welche der Mysterienschüler in seinen Dramen die leidende, kämpfende, darbende Gottheit rekonstruiert und so den Gott den schauenden Menschen vorführt in seinen menschlichen Abbildern.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":162,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/93/1906-01-02/p023"},{"locus":"GA 93/1906-01-02/p024","passage_number":24,"text":"Wer verstehen will, was Aristoteles mit der Reinigung, der Katharsis meinte, der muß den Begriff aus dem Astralen, aus den Geheimnissen der Mysterien heraus erklären.

Erinnern Sie sich, wie Lessing nachforschte über die Seelenkräfte der Furcht und des Mitleids, die durch die Tragödie erregt werden sollen. Das hat seit Lessing den Gegenstand für manche große und gelehrte Diskussion abgegeben. In Wahrheit wurden diese Gefühle in [dem Mysterienschüler] erregt, wenn ihm der Gott in seinem Weltengange vorgeführt wurde. Da wurden die Leidenschaften, die in der Menschenseele vorhanden sind, geradezu aufgerüttelt, herausgeholt, wie man ein Fieber herausholt, und bis zu ihrem Höhepunkt gebracht. Dadurch trat die Reinigung ein, um dann zur Wiedergeburt schreiten zu können. Das alles trat in schattenhaften Abbildern in den alten griechischen Tragödien auf. Ebenso wie die Wissenschaft, so hat sich auch die Kunst aus diesen alten Mysterien heraus entwickelt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":163,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/93/1906-01-02/p024"}],"beads":[{"from":[23],"to":[23],"confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed"},{"from":[24],"to":[24],"confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed"}],"note":"Paired by the paragraph aligner; each language numbers its own paragraphs.
