German idealism as grand historical narrative, interpreting reality as a bunch of living metaphors, basically the polar opposite to the existentialism that was being created around the same time.

The fact that he even came up with such an idea is proof of genius, though it might be more of the poetic than historical or philosophical variety. Some later critic named it one of the best Romantic poems ever written iirc.

If you meant more specifically the idea is that civilizations(which he sees as discrete units with definite lifespans) are metaphysical organisms that can be understood as the manifold expressions of a single 'prime symbol' across math, religion, art, politics, everything.

This post betrays the basic tragicomedy of the anti-white ideologue. He says he wants to live in a world without whites, but he could do that any time he wants, most of the world is not white. But no he wants to live in a white country, but have that country stop being white, he wants whites to be a 'minority of the population'. Why does he not simply move to a country where whites are already a minority of the population or just not present? The answer to that question, for anyone except sinophiles or the like who actually prefer the east asian states to white countries, presents a sort of giant mental block. They can't quite accurately look at what is staring them in the face, it is funny, but it is also sad.

Are the immigrants there really any better off than the were in their own countries?

no, white people are narrative babies and just get depressed if they cant be acknowledged by women or some authority figure.

>Because Liberalism makes everyone "Westerners". That's the entire point. That's why Brahmin women whose families own literal slaves working in factories that dump plastic sludge right into the ocean get to lecture impoverished West Virginians about how their White Privilege is causing climate change. The entire idea of "Colonial Studies" is rooted in advancing the notion that Westerners are leagues higher than the people they conquered, and that the conquered have been totally annihilated in Western mans wake. There are no more Bantu tribesmen, there are no more Aztecs, there are no more Indians, there are just "BIPOCs", who are the victim of Western man's superiority. Their sovereignty has been destroyed, their control over themselves has been lost, they were made into BIPOCs, which is a category of """""""""people"""""""" in Western man's world, and they want to move up the ladder to "White People". These people will tell you this themselves. After all, we live in a world run by White Supremacy even though the Western world is mostly run by Jews and people who have no sense of themselves as being "White", and in which Asians living in central China are also guilty of "White Supremacy" for not liking fags.

>Nobody in Colonial Studies wants Western Essentialism and Colonialism to end. If they did, they wouldn't be in Colonial Studies, they'd be moving on with their lives instead of caring about a 50 year period of Whitey importing a bunch of railroads and factory equipment to their countries.

one example is row 6 - Classical understanding placed geometry as the more fundamental concept, not number.
The whole term "rational number" comes precisely from the Classical mathematicians not having a concept of number as an independent abstract idea, but conceived of numbers as representations of ratios of lengths of lines or geometrical structures. Numbers themselves were not even conceived of until much later on.
It would be far more accurate to replace "number" with "form" or "shape" or "geometry" and this would also fit in far better with you saying that Classical culture sees the world through "the logic of space".
"The logic of space" clashes with numbers being a central part of Classical thought. It's not immediately obvious, but it is wrong all the same in my view, since geometry and form are concrete, not abstract.

Writing is the spatialization of thought, and that is how Geometry developed, right? This leads to the harmonics of varied forms with flat use of colour. Spengler I think mentions the pillars of New Kingdom Egypt.

The Logic of Space also allows for a certain amount of regionalistic autonomy outside of the megalopolis. Notably in the Iliad there isn't really one overlord over all the kingdoms of Greece, and even Achilles has some power over Agamemnon.

If we say that writing out geometry makes them more literate and less oral, I think that's incorrect because they're still thinking in terms of schematics, or in tonal intervals and poetic allusion.

Spain and Portugal are Faustian. Spengler cites them specifically as examples of Faustian Man's "Spirit". Why would you have an opinion on this matter without spending five seconds looking into it? What else would they be if not Faustian?

>>16830541
I was looking at that and thinking that this had to be a misunderstanding of Spengler or just flat out not Spengler at all. The "logic of time vs space" thing is also wrong, all of Spengler's Culture-Civilizations have a logic of both space and time. Also lines 1 through 4 are so abstract as to be meaningless and apply to all Culture-Civilizations.

Assessing the number-space of Classical civilization is difficult but it might help to think of a Classical pagan temple as the behavioural equivalent of an alphanumeric code within a database. There's little sense of what we think of as 'history' in Homer, or a sense of progression from Danaan to Dorian Greece... the Trojan war just has to be expressed in that particular formula.

That is Spengler in a nutshell. People hear Richard Spencer say "Faustian Spirit" (he's actually referring to something entirely separate here) and see "Decline" in the title and see Spengler as LE BALD EBIN DECLINE AND FALL OF THE ROMAN BUT AMERICAN EMPIRE man, and that's completely fucking wrong. He's closer to Richard Dawkin's extended phenotype stuff, or Jung, than Edward Gibbon. His Culture-Civilizations don't even die, as >>16830353 goes into, they just ossify and lost their vitality and creative potential.

The actual title of the book(s) was Umrisse Einer Morphologie Der Weltgeschichte, in English "An outline of the morphology of worldspirits", the decline stuff was slapped on because no one would want to buy"Umrisse Einer Morphologie Der Weltgeschichte".

I've been meaning to make a series of images that explain what Spengler is saying, and then how each Culture-Civilization sees the world, precisely to alleviate this problem.

why did he call it Faustian and not Promethean spirit? seems like an arbitrary nordification of something that belongs to his "classic" category.

You could also say it's "faustian" in a Japethite-Gomerian spirit exemplified by Esau

The fact that Spengler's assessments of "Mexican" culture lines up so well with what more recent scholars who have certainly never read Spengler are coming out with is one of the reasons that I put so much stock in Spengler's works.

Faust yearns after infinite knowledge in a way that is very peculiar to Western civilization and philosophy (the quest for Absolute Knowing in Hegel, the assembling of encyclopedias in the enlightenment with Diderot to catalogue all knowledge, Linnaeus cataloguing the entire animal kingdom, exploring the entire earth and then exploring our solar system with manned flights and satellites, etc.) By comparison, Prometheus was just given men some fire. Not as dramatic, quite a small horizon of possiblity.

>One can quibble endlessly about the small details in Spengler's historical research, but as the introduction suggests one should not take everything too literal-mindedly, but rather more poetically again like Nietzsche. The ones who did rail against these details, who Spengler knowingly and ingeniously termed "mere ant-industry" in this book, are people you would have never heard of before; the ones who did appreciate this book and maybe to a degree even absorbed it have the names of Max Weber, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and Theodor Adorno(!) on the other hand. Indeed it's no surprise that it took a German-language mind to understand this-in the end-German book, and what they likely appreciated was the poetic force and brilliant imagery of the writing first and foremost, for which all historical writing in the Anglo-sphere has greatly lacked since Carlyle who himself was under the influence of Hegel.

tl;dr go read pic related. The Aztecs conceived of the world as being composed of a prime-stuff that is a ceaseless process of becoming eating itself to become. Maffie spends a large amount of time going over sources that literally did not exist in Spengler's lifetime and, completely separate from him, comes to remarkably similar conclusions.

He mentions the 'mercantilist' Mayan intellects of Uxmal and contrasts them with the more 'confucian' Aztec naturists.

In the West we might contrast the 'legalist' Calvinists of London with the 'mercantilist' Lutheran intellects of Berlin, save for Nietzsche who might be viewed as a sort of 'confucianist'. Marx was probably influenced by the 'legalists' of London.

big talk from an Iberian penninsul poster. If instead of keeping a poor and overpopulated class in their countries for easy recruitment (among other reasons) and sent them to colonize lowly populated colonial south america/africa/spice islands/central america against the vested interest of local plantation owners who didn't want competition and Jews or people with a Jewish heart profiting off of slavery we could've had a developped and mostly white congress of nations across the Americas, instead it's lost to the mutts.

Their is a reason the Spanish and Italians didn't lead the century, just be glad the French aren't the primary power. Lord only knows how awful things would be if they had any more influence than they already had.
