The philosophical concept of the functioning of culture by O. Spengler
German thinker O. Spengler is the author of the famous book “The Decline of Europe” (1918). This is a diagnostic book, a prognosis book. The author raises the question about the future of European culture and himself gives a disappointing answer to it.
Spengler's ideas were developed into a cyclical (civilizational) concept of the existence of culture. This is a philosophical concept that considers the existence of culture as a succession of cycles and civilizations independent of each other.
Spengler denies a single world culture, recognizing only different cultures, each of which has its own unique destiny. The primary soul is the soul of culture, non-rational and not reducible to any logic. Logic, art, politics, science are secondary to this soul. The essence of culture cannot be reduced to reason. According to Spengler, there are several types of soul (Apollonian, magical, Faustian). They lie, respectively, at the basis of ancient Greek, medieval Arab and European culture. Every culture is equal and unique. According to Spengler, culture is a living organic manifestation of vital nature, and, like all living things, it is mortal.
The death of a culture is its state when it ceases to develop organically and its spiritual images cease to inspire people.
As a result, human activity is directed towards the implementation of utilitarian-mercantile tasks. Civilization is coming, interpreted by Spengler as the death of culture.
If a culture ceases to attract and inspire human souls, then it dies.
Spengler is one of the first who felt the tragedy of culture in the alien world of civilization. It is not surprising that the book "The Decline of Europe" became an event in European culture.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven
09.05.2024
Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

| Random news from the Archive Asus Lyra Trio Wi-Fi Mesh Kit
02.04.2018
Asus has introduced the Lyra Trio kit, which is a Wi-Fi Mesh system. Such systems are used to create a seamless wireless network in a large room. To be more precise, for the novelty, the maximum area is declared equal to 500 m2.
The kit includes three almost identical devices, which, in fact, are ordinary routers, only they work in a slightly different mode. One of the devices is basic, and the other two serve to expand the coverage area.
The routers are categorized as AC1750, which means the maximum throughput is 450 Mbps when using 802.11n and 1300 Mbps when using 802.11ac. Each device has three internal antennas, 32 MB of flash memory, 128 MB of RAM.
The device supports 3x3 MIMO and Amazon Alexa voice AI.
