European Culture

Explanation:

  • “The concept of culture, intelligence, and great works has for us a very old link with the idea of Europe,
  • The idea that there is a distinct European culture that differentiates Europe from the rest of the world is still alive and well.
  • Even in 1919, Valéry believed this concept was "extremely old," but it still animates political debate across Europe today.
  • During the First World War, French and British intellectuals waged a ferocious propaganda campaign to exclude a "barbarian" Germany from the society of civilized nations.
  • In response, Germany's cultural elite embraced the uniqueness of Germany's moral Kultur in the face of a purportedly corrupt and vapid West.
  • While ‘Europe has a spiritual entity  which has been destroyed, and it is unlikely to be restored.'
