I made a thread about him yesterday but i think it was ignored (could be wrong)
What does /his/ think of Oswald Spengler.
are you creating the same thread over and over again in the hopes that you one day get an answer that confirms your bias by being in full favor of this man? it's not going to happen. the general consensus is that some of his stuff stands up under critical thinking and some of it does not.

I really enjoyed it.
He considered himself a poet, not a historian, and his work should be read in that light.

bumping this thread to make you upset
i've only read the last chapter for a class and not being a history major it was extremely difficult to follow. the only general idea i got was historical development of europe differed from asia and so created liberalization which was responsible for the west.
