The decline of the West, Volume 1 : Form and actuality

Spengler, Oswald, 1880-1936

책 소개

"The Decline of the West: Volume 1, Form and Actuality" by Oswald Spengler is a philosophical work published in 1918. Spengler rejects traditional linear history, proposing instead that civilizations are organic entities with thousand-year lifespans. Cultures flourish and create, then become civilizations marked by military expansion and intellectual stagnation, before inevitably declining. He argues that Western civilization has entered its "winter" phase—a protracted sunset similar to Rome's fall. Through morphological analysis inspired by Goethe, Spengler identifies eight major cultures and charts their rise and decline across history.
