[247] Now all these considerations are man losing himself in what he has created by cognitive analysis of his world. That is what l tried to describe in terms of the Iliad^a, the going-out of the human mind from his home, to the struggle with his world, in which he then loses himself. This of course is [said] metaphorically, and, if you want, poetically, but it covers a reality--- and a very dramatic reality---in history, because by this drama the destiny of mankind is determined in the whole Western world, from at least 1000 years before Christ to the present day. Now what has happened now is that man is divided into these levels of abstraction which he has discovered in the encounter of his world. If you do not think in monistic terms, reducing man completely to ONE of these levels, then you think in terms of parts: man consists of parts, and each of these parts belongs to one of these levels of reality which he has discovered cognitively by the process of analysis and abstraction. Now what is the decisive thing about it? He has forgotten that these levels are levels of cognitive abstraction which he, man, has created. Let us illuminate this by the destiny of the word "anthropology^b." Anthropology means (as everybody knows who knows Greek) the doctrine, the logos, of anthropos, man. Now what has happened to this word? This word has been used for the description of some LEVELS which BELONG to the reality of man--- the level of the biological, the level of the sociological, and there it ends. Now man, the object of anthropology, is divided into these two levels, and in anthropological lectures you find these two levels fully analyzed and described.
