There appears to be no attempt to discern  what is beautiful and true: it is functional and pragmatic usefulness  that seem to dominate human evaluations and transactions with other  humans and, indeed, animals. Humanity is becoming detached from the  `higher' aesthetic, moral and intellectual works of the human spirit  and thus the life of the spirit is often situated on the other side of  a gulf, opposed to science with its rationality. Culture is in danger  of becoming reduced to science. In other words, the great metaphysical  questions - those of telos, of sense - often are  answered in terms of scientific conceptions. But these are at least  incomplete, if not fragmentary, and in principle hypothetical, which  still leaves the questions unanswered. \u003cbr\u003e  But it is culture that is the manifestation of the human spirit, being  the historical process of human self-interpretation-in-existence. All  manifestations of the creative forge of the human being find a role in  the fabric of culture, which involves progressively widening circles  of the human community, demanding an integration and attunement with  others in their changing conditions of life. This consideration of  culture involves all areas of philosophical reflection: moral,  aesthetic, metaphysical, epistemological, semiological, cognitive, and  more.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401060509\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4890-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 223cm x152cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 387\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358987939980,"sku":"9789401060509","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401060509.jpg?v=1777376838","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789401060509","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
