Theory of Objective Spirit. Introduction to Cultural Philosophy

Culture, by Fryer, this is the numerous forms of objective spirit, crystallizing and financially fixed during human history. The phenomenological descriplation of these forms, their thorough hermeneutic analysis and theoretical systematization in the form of five major forms (the work, adaptation, sign, social form and education) make up the content of the new discipline - "cultural philosophy, - which Fraier introduces in opposition to traditional" natural philosophy ". The essence of the objective spirit is investigated in two main directions: constitutive (i.e. creative) and interpretative (understanding) acts, and in three planes: the spirit is like being (its manifestation in objective forms), the spirit is like a process (the ratio of objective forms with actual life ) And finally, as the system.
The work of Fryer became the first and for a long time the only theoretical study of integral cultural issues in the newest European philosophy. It was she who was used and Martin Heidegger referred to her, developing the concept of cultural production. The abundance of insightful discoveries, the discipline of thought and the talent of the systematizer distinguish this book, and today maintains its relevance and thoroughness
