Man — Hieroglyph of the Universe
GA 201
![]()
It would be contrary to the purpose of these lectures to seek in them what can be found in ordinary astronomy books. They speak of what is not found in these books, of the existential, genetic relationship between man and the cosmos. This gives the discussion a different dimension. Where reference is made to conventional astronomy, it is done so very briefly, merely hinting at what can be found elsewhere and needs to be looked up. And yet, naturally, astronomical facts in the conventional sense have also found their way into the presentation, albeit more interwoven than explicitly stated. The description of precession, for example, is such that one gets the impression of entering into what the Egyptian priest-astronomers really did. Even if this was more than ordinary astronomy, it nevertheless became the starting point for the latter.
