Oswald spengler - Der untergang des abendlandes - 1922-1923

Remarkably beautiful and fully complete 3-volume set of the monumental cultural-philosophical masterpiece "Der Untergang des Abendlandes" by the German philosopher Oswald Spengler. This concerns the early, sought-after editions from the 1920s, published by the renowned C.H. Beck’sche Verlagsbuchhandlung in Munich. What makes this set unique is that, in addition to Part 1 and Part 2, the then separately issued (and now rare) index part (Namen- und Sachverzeichnis) is also present. The set consists of: • Part 1: First Volume - Gestalt und Wirklichkeit (Edition: 1923, 33rd–47th completely redesigned edition). • Part 2: Second Volume - Welt-Historische Perspektiven (Edition: 1922, 16th–30th edition). • Part 3: Namen- und Sachverzeichnis (Edition: 1923, accompanying index for both volumes). Specifications & Condition: • Language: German (Fraktur / Gothic typeface) • Binding: Original half-cloth/paper boards with the authentic geometric border design and the bookseller stamp 'Jost' on the cover. • Condition: In good, sturdy antiquarian condition. The bindings show the light, characteristic signs of aging and patina appropriate for books over 100 years old. The text blocks are solid. The index volume contains a neat, handwritten owner’s name from that period on the title page. A beautiful, historically valuable set for the serious collector, philosopher, or enthusiast of historical key texts.
