| 英文摘要 | The article treats the universal history Ruins, or Meditation on the Revolutions of Empires (Les ruines ou Meditations sur les revolutions des empires) of the French cultural philosopher Constantin-Francois Volney (1757-1820). Using a textual, interdisciplinary study, which focuses upon Volney's complex cultural and historical philosophical contexts, I demonstrate that his primary concern was a nearly 2500 years coherent Europe of tradition and reception: this Europe did not represent a western corner of a larger Asian landmass but, in the late eighteenth century, rather offered the opportunity for a complex and harmonious unity of European peoples under French circumstances. Volney chose the ruins of the desert town of Palmyra as the starting point of his historical and philosophical reflections. As a cultural philosopher of the late Enlightenment, he looks past the divine workings of the course of history in order to take instead the finite, man-made world as his focal interest. The following pages emphasize these reflections on human history that - in the face of a melancholic mode - highlighted the cultural anthropological characteristics and committed them to the promotion of a self-creating future. |
