Throughout the twentieth century, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism was regarded as an important sociological and economic text, continuing into the twenty-first century, when extreme capitalism has continued to come under fire. Weber's work provided a history, from where the profit motive could be ethically justified.

Mit tiefem Kenntnisreichtum bringt uns Hegel den Geist der Völker des alten Orients, der Antike und des christlichen Abendlandes nahe und verbindet sie zu einer Stufenfolge der Entwicklung der Freiheit. Alle Umwälzungen, aller Schmerz und alles Leid in der Geschichte sind der Idee geschuldet, dass der Mensch als Mensch frei ist. Sie ist der "Angelpunkt, um den sich die Weltgeschichte dreht". Hegels Weltgeschichte ist bis heute eine historische, philosophische und theologische Herausforderung.

Though the Torah prohibits eating pig meat, it is not singled out more than other food prohibitions. The pig has become a symbol for people to signal their Jewishness, non-Jewishness, or rebellion from Judaism. Starting with the Hebrew Bible, Jordan D. Rosenblum historicizes the emergence of the pig as a key symbol of Jewish identity, from the Roman persecution of ancient rabbis, to the Spanish Inquisition, to Shakespeare's writings, to modern memoirs of those leaving Orthodox Judaism.

La alquimia en Al Ándalus fue una de las disciplinas más importantes del esplendor cultural islámico en España. Siglos de progreso en Al Ándalus que fueron tejidos con el hilo de oro de la alquimia y que cayeron en el olvido. La alquimia en Al Ándalus y su influencia en el arte y las ciencias era un capítulo de la historia que estaba aún por escribir. Desde la llegada de Abderrahmán I, el Inmigrado, a Al Ándalus en el año 756, hasta la caída del califato en el 1030, y tiempo después de los almorávides y almohades, los andalusíes se convirtieron en testigos de excepción de un arte que no se introduciría en Europa hasta el siglo XII.

Che uomini erano quelli. Riuscirono a salvare l’Europa con la sola forza della fede. Con l’efficacia di una formula semplicissima, ora et labora. Lo fecero nel momento peggiore, negli anni di violenza e anarchia che seguirono la caduta dell’Impero romano, quando le invasioni erano una cosa seria, non una migrazione di diseredati. Ondate violente, spietate, pagane. Unni, Vandali, Visigoti, Longobardi, Slavi e i ferocissimi Ungari. Li cristianizzarono e li resero europei con la sola forza dell’esempio. Salvarono una cultura millenaria, rimisero in ordine un territorio devastato e in preda all’abbandono.
