Abstract:
Rudolf Steiner repeatedly spoke in lectures and answers to questions from 1913 to 1923 on the subject of “space, time and velocity”. He described a concept of space and time that was peculiar to him, culminating in the statement that velocity is the actual reality from which man – during the process of perception – develops the concepts of space and time by abstraction. In this essay, the proximity of this approach to certain concepts of special relativity will be worked out and, in addition, a qualitative concept of speed will be developed, which initially dispenses with measurements of length and time and which describes speed as inherent feature of moving things.
