This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And, in the shadow of the major civilization, before it disappeared in its turn, how many other cultures have perished without a trace? This immense tragedy is being lived now by many cultures, with great intensity. One has to belong to such a culture in course of extinction or dying slowly even before its flourishing, to understand the infinite distress of those who are helplessly watching the inexorable disappearance of their most precious values. With each dying culture, it is a unique flower that is withering never to bloom again, an incomparable fragrance that fades away forever. There is in the smallest idioms, there is in the “Weltanschauung” of the smallest tribe doomed to extinction treasures of wisdom and poetry. Lost…lost for all eternity. In the life of peoples, as in the whole Creation, the most striking thing that actually shocks the mind is the infinite waste of Nature. Those who at present are fortunate enough to belong to the universal cultures, may still live with the illusion of their perpetuity. But for how long? Indead what is left of Ancient Egypt, of Mesopotamia, of Crete, of Mexico and of Peru? And how can we be sure that our conceited race that for centuries extends its domination over peoples and things will not also fall one day in torpor and become apathetic? Neagu Djuvara

Book excerpt: Creates a model of the cultural-historical process to explain historical change for all societies. Periodization charts provide historical data useful for empirical testing of the author's model. The book begins with a discussion of scientific truth in history to clarify the basic epistemological presuppositions and strategy. Snyder (history, New College) next discusses the micro level of his model, basing it on a structural analysis of the internal processes within the Culture-System during an historical cycle. Finally, the author identifies four environments of the cultural-social system in which he treats the individual human as an environment of the social system rather than a basic part.
