"The Decline of Europe" is a book claiming the vacancy of the "philosophy of the era." Although the number of Spengler's predecessors discovered by critics exceeded a hundred, he himself calls the names Goethe and Nietzsche, "to which I owe almost everything" (vol. 1, p. 126). The theme of the book is a biography of world history, dressed in the form of a comparative morphological analysis of the great cultural eras. Spengler contrasts the conventional understanding of history, such as the Ancient World, the Middle Ages and the New Age strung on a linearly straightened time, with a cyclical understanding, according to which each culture is a kind of closed organism passing between birth and death at the stage of childhood, youth, maturity and old age.
