This book is a collection of notes and manuscript fragments written by Burckhardt for his lectures at the University of Basel from 1865 to 1885. As an outstanding cultural and art historian in the 19th century, Burckhardt presented and described Western history from ancient times to the Revolutionary era in a highly personal style and aesthetic sense in the form of notes based on his own cultural vision and value standpoint. By deeply reflecting on and criticizing the axioms that pervaded the entire political field in the 19th century - egalitarian mass democracy, unfettered capitalism and its consumerism, materialism, and the welfare state - Burckhardt challenged and even subverted the linear view of historical progress dominated by Enlightenment and rationalism, advocating finding the spiritual strength to deal with the crisis of modern Western culture from the history of Greece, Rome, the Renaissance, and its humanist tradition.
