Polarities in the Evolution of Humanity: West and East - Materialism and Mysticism - Knowledge and Belief (Cw 197)
De (autor): Rudolf Steiner
11 lectures, Stuttgart, March 5-Nov. 22, 1920 (CW 197)
"The present age needs to understand that human beings must hold the balance between the two extremes, between the ahrimanic and the luciferic poles. People always tend to go in one direction.... Christ stands in the middle, holding the balance." -- Rudolf SteinerThese eleven lectures were given in postwar Stuttgart against a backdrop of struggle and uncertainty--not only within society at large but also within the anthroposophical movement. Rudolf Steiner and his supporters were working to introduce "threefold" social ideas and--given Steiner's public profile--were coming under increasing personal and sometimes physical attack.
Steiner responds to this turbulent situation by revealing the spiritual background to the forces of decline working in contemporary civilization. He speaks of retrogressive powers--spiritual beings referred to as luciferic or ahrimanic--that work directly into human culture, manifesting, for example, in what he refers to as the "initiation streams" of Western secret societies, the Church-allied impulse of Jesuitism, and the Bolshevik force of Lenin-ism. The spiritual agents of adversity also encourage polarized thinking and false opposites such as East verses West, materialism, and mysticism, or knowledge and belief. Only the threefold principle, represented by Christ, allows us to create a balance in the midst of these existential conflicts.
This freshly reworked translation is complemented with notes, an index and an introduction by Matthew Barton.
This volume is a translation from German of Gegensätze in der Menschheitsentwickelung: West und Ost- Materialismus und Mystik - Wissen und Glauben (GA 197).
