Giambattista Vico (1668-1744) was one of the most original and
idiosyncratic philosophers before Kant and Hegel. Although Giorgio
Vasari had already diagnosed a cycle of rise, blossoming and
decline in the history of art, Vico was the first to base this on a
philosophical system. Isolated in Naples from direct contact with
the philosophical life of his times, he worked at his grand design
of the cycles of rise, blossoming, decline and eternal return which
he saw in all areas of culture. His points of reference were
ancient mythology and Greek and Roman history. To that extent, he
is regarded today as the founder of the philosophy of history and
the precursor of a tradition which extends to Hegel and Oswald
Spengler's "Decline of the West."
