Spreading of European culture Deutsche Welle Adenauer - European statesman The American Way of Life
Cultural exchange When Europeans began to explore overseas territories in the 16th century, they also took their own way of life with them to the "new" world, thus spreading European culture throughout Africa, Asia and America. Much evidence of this influence still remains today. But they also brought influences and objects of foreign cultures back with them to Europe where they were frequently integrated into European civilisation.

European Culture in the 21st Century
European Parliament, Directorate-General for Research , Document EDUC 107 EN Part 2 (2001), pages 31-33.
To consider "European Culture in the 21st century" as a singular subject denies implicitly its necessarily and inherently plural nature. As a homogenous and unified phenomenon, it is as undesirable and impractical as a single European language. Politically, it is as totalitarian a vision as the sole reign of a single European party. And yet the ideology of modernism, which has devastated cities, landscapes and minds for half a century, squandered natural resources, wasted private lives and professional careers, continues to dominate the cultural policies of all European countries. It reigns through the extension of intellectual terror in government agencies and academies, and works effectively (if no longer declaredly) at the elimination of traditional cultural differences, styles and techniques. The new buildings of the European Union (EU) in Brussels, Luxembourg and Strasbourg symbolize if anything the poverty and vacuity of the ideology. Despite the evident betrayal of all its ideological promises and pretensions, the vast majority of government sponsored buildings in all EU countries including national pavilions at world exhibitions continue to be built as mere variations of the same sterile creed. The tenets of this ideology are based on the erroneous belief that in an industrial civilization all aspects of life will eventually be dominated by industrial processes, i.e. that "modernity" is and can be truly modern only if imbued with the spirit of industrialization.

"The Kurgan solution is attractive and has been accepted by many archaeologists and linguists, in part or total. It is the solution one encounters in the Encyclopedia Britannica and the Grand Dictionnaire Encyclopedique Larousse. It describes Indo-European expansions in a framework congruent with expectation, and perhaps most importantly, it derives the Proto-Indo-Europeans from the Pontic-Caspian region, a territory which its bitterest opponents would normally admit was at least Indo-Iranian and undisturbed by population intrusions since the beginning of the Neolithic." (Mallory JP (1989) In Search of the Indo Europeans. Thames and Hudson Ltd. London. p. 185)
"In sum, three of the five predictions those involving mate preference for earning potential, relative youth, and physical attractiveness were strongly confirmed across cultures. The prediction regarding ambition-industriousness was confirmed only in 29 samples, and showed a significant reversal among the Zulu. The chastity prediction received still less empirical support, with only 23 of the 37 samples showing significant sex differences." (Buss, D.M. (1989) Sex differences in human mate selection: Evolutionary hypotheses tested in 37 cultures. Behavioral and Brain Sciences 12 (1): pp. 13)
"Conscious egohood is intensified in the civilizational process. The walls that rise up to isolate the city from nature also rise up to isolate the citizen from nature. The continuum is broken, and the rise of writing helps to break up as well the continuum of the sensorium, to locate consciousness in the written word. What the written word is to the sensorium, the ego is to the entire consciousness, and the city is to the entire encirclement of nature. Writing, individuation, and civilization are all parts of one larger cultural phenomenology. Because civilization is at a moment of overripeness in the Third Dynasty of Ur, the whole civilization process is being lifted up into consciousness in the Gilgamesh epic. "The owl of Minerva flies at dusk."" (Thompson, W.I. (1981) The Time Falling Bodies Take To Light; St. Martin’s Press: New York p. 196)

War, social, political and economic change, ideological oppositions, and technological developments have all led to widespread experiences of displacment, flux and mutation. These experiences, rooted as they are in historical events such as the Second World War, give rise to a number of interconnected socio-political and cultural developments. For these reasons, the approach of the programme is interdisciplinary, integrating the study of socio-political and cultural issues in post-war Europe, East and West. In this way, debates concerning the inheritance of the Enlightenment, engagement and aesthetics, multiculturalism and the 'end of history' thesis are discussed in the context of a range of socio-political developments in the post-war era.

Thinkers and scholars have addressed in one way or another the existence of a totalitarian potential in Western thought. Some of them propound an alternative of embracing the Christian tradition, viewing the dissociation from this tradition, and the struggle waged against it by the followers of the different totalitarian trends, as the source of Western totalitarianism. This outlook is also manifested in classical conservatism and in the neoconservative ideology of today, and though it certainly has strong positive features, a Christian alternative will not withstand the test. When Christianity and totalitarianism are compared, not in terms of their explicit ideas but in terms of their modes of thought, it emerges that the roots of totalitarianism lie precisely in Christianity itself. On the other hand, it is precisely in authentic Jewish modes of thought that there lies a real alternative to Western totalitarianism. Therefore, the definition of Western civilization as "Judeo-Christian" is fundamentally erroneous. However, how can the well-known fact of the disproportionate participation of assimilated Jews in the totalitarian experiments be explained?

Over three hundred years ago, the paramount modern Catholic exegete, Cornelius a Lapide, S.J., wrote that the 25th of March, 2000, was the most likely date for the world to end. Catholic Millenarianism does not let the day pass without comment.
Catholic Millenarianism Catholic Millenarianism illustrates a hold apocalyptic concerns had on intellectual life, particularly between 1500 and 1900, rivaling and influencing rationalism and skepticism. Catholics do not ordinarily expect a messianic reign by earthly means. Catholic Millenarianism shows instead what is common to Catholic authors: their preoccupation with the relationship between linguistic prophecies and the events they foretell. This makes the perspectives offered as surprisingly diverse as their particular times, and the book itself interesting and worth repeated reading.

University of California, Los Angeles, USA Book Series: Volume 173 This volume brings together ten essays by leading scholars about Jewish messianic ideas and movements in the early modern world. While much of the previous literature in this field has focused on the internal dynamics of Jewish thought, these essays stress the broader historical and philosophical context. The papers deal with such topics as messianic ideology in the wake of the Spanish Expulsion, messianism and Renaissance philosophy, the Sabbatean movement and its impact on Christian thought, messianism and conversion, the relationship of Christian kabbalists to Jewish messianic ideas, the Frankist movement, and Freemasonry. As a group, the essays here represent a challenge to Gershom Scholem's reading of Jewish messianism in this era, offering a rich tapestry of relationships between the religious imagination of Jews and that of their neighbors. Scholars and students of early modern history, eschatology and religion will find much food for thought here. Contents and Contributors Kluwer Academic Publishers, Dordrecht

European Culture Horns Ende (Horn's End, Hein), Der Tangospieler (The Piano Player, Hein) or Flugasche (Flight of Ashes, Maron). Since this was the only public opposition (often difficult to get through the censor) it had to engage the reader. We know what freedom means much better when there is a clear-cut oppression. Culture in this country is not that separated from low culture, culture that people could relate to. I know that that is also bad because money can be made by not challenging viewers or readers. Hollywood's happy endings being the lasting examples even though they have become less primitive lately. But at least the road is open for occasional novels like William Styron's Sophie's Choice , of which even the film was a reflection, playing with the problems in the culture common to Europe and this country? Is it the background of oppression in this book that makes its representation of freedom so fascinatingly problematic? Or the insanity of the liberator with his make-believe-freedom who, because of being Jewish, was only recently liberated himself?
