Defending the rise of western culture against its multicultural critics
The European Legacy 10 (5):455-484 (2005)
Abstract
It is only in Western Europe that the whole pattern of culture is to be found in a continuous succession and alternation of free spiritual movements; so that every century of Western history shows a change in the balance of cultural elements, and the appearance of some new spiritual force which creates new ideas and institutions and produces a further movement of social change (Christopher Dawson)My notes
