#65 The Decline of the West, Vol. 1 (part 1) - Oswald Spengler
Manage episode 378481982 series 3439842
Oswald Spengler's 'The Decline of the West' is a two-volume work, which lays out a model of morphological history, whereby each culture is the result of the actualisation of its own great soul. These souls have their own life cycles, their own youth, adulthood, decline and death, which can be compared and predicted using Spengler's model.
This week, we cover the first three chapters of the first volume of The Decline of the West, first published in 1918. We'll do future episodes on subsequent chapters. Prepare to have your brain melted.
