Oswald Spengler\n\n Oswald Spengler (May 29, 1880 - May 8, 1936) was a German philosopher and mathematician. His work The Decline of the West argues that the development of civilizations follows a recognizable cyclical pattern. Spengler has, amongst others, influenced Georg Henrik von Wright in his writing about our society. Spengler was a pivotal influence on Francis Parker Yockey, who wrote Imperium as a sequel to The Decline of the West. Yockey called Spengler "The Philosopher of the Twentieth Century." "Oswald Spengler" is also the pseudonym of a Jewish-American columnist for the Asia Times Online, whose particular focus is on America. Works\n* Der Untergang des Abendlandes in German.
