Translated from the French by Willard R. Trask. Bollingen Series - XLVI. 195 pages. hardcover. keywords: Philosophy Mythology Europe Romania Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - This is an essay on mankind's experience of history and ifs interpretation, beginning with a study of the traditional or mythological view, and concluding with a comparative estimate of modern historiological approaches. In traditional societies the historical emphasis is placed on the permanence and continuity of the archetypal forms: man lives, so to speak, in a state of perpetual beginning. In the modern world two orientations prevail: the traditional, of cyclic time, denying the concept of history advancing in time (Brahmanism, Buddhism, the Edda, Platonism, etc.); and that of progressive time, stressing change and beset by a sense of sin (Judaism, Christianity). Now, at a moment when modern man has brought his race almost to the point of annihilation, the historical attitude has been all but discredited. The author seeks an answer to the question: What can protect us from the terror of history? inventory #35761.
