That view is in accord with the Unification view of history. Also, Vico thought that, although history is mainly in the process of progress or development, there are patterns of development and decline in history, and thus he grasped history as spiral progress. In that respect, he was a forerunner for the appearance of the cultural view of history advocated by Spengler and Toynbee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><div class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uthought.org\/en\/unification-thought\/note\/thucydides-realistic-and-cyclical-view-of-history\/\" title=\"Thucydides&#8217; Realistic and cyclical view of history\"><p style=\"font-size: 72px; text-align: center; margin-bottom: -32px;\">\u2190<\/p><br><p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Thucydides&#8217; Realistic and cyclical view of history<\/p><\/a><\/div> <div class=\"alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uthought.org\/en\/unification-thought\/note\/simmels-historical-philosophy\/\" title=\"Simmel&#8217;s historical philosophy\"><p style=\"font-size: 72px; text-align: center; margin-bottom: -32px;\">\u2192<\/p><br><p class=\"has-large-font-size\">Simmel&#8217;s historical philosophy<\/p><\/a><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Note 13.
