HISTORY (and RELIGION)

History is philosophy drawn from examples.
- DIONYSIUS OF HALICAR-NASSUS, c. 10 BC

History is really the biographies of great people.
- THOMAS CARLYLE

History is the actualizing of a [Cultural] Soul.
- OSWALD SPENGLER, "Decline of the West" volume I, page 147.

History would be incomplete without a study of religion, which is one of the
most universal activities known to mankind,  being practised across virtually
all cultures - and throughout all ages.
- THE GUINNESS ENCYCLOPEDIA, 1990; (adapted from page 458).

Cultural Souls reflected in their Mathematics: the Spenglerian interpretation
The mathematics developed in the Sino-Japanese High Culture focussed on solving
some quite intriguing geometrical problems - ones which most Western
mathematicians are completely unaware of. Other cultures, too, have displayed
their own characteristic style and preferences in this field. Can we try and
guess what type of mathematical thought might flower, in the future, in the
recently born Russian Culture?
