The Four Steps to the Sky

(The author writes all the way down, no matter how I don’t look back, I don’t look at it! I write until I forget it all, haha! It’s impossible to forget everything, so I have to do whatever I want and let nature take its course. No need to read (of course, the author’s book can be ignored), it’s all just introducing the characters in the camp. Review some characters by yourself.

Floating Pot Space - Spencer

Herbert Spencer (1820-1903), British philosopher.He is well known as the father of Social Darwinism, a theory that applies the evolutionary theory of survival of the fittest to sociology, especially education and class struggle.

However, his writings have contributed to a wide range of topics, including normative, metaphysical, religious, political, rhetorical, biological, and psychological, among others.

There were many famous philosophers and scientists in Spencer's time, such as John, Stuart, Mill, Thomas, Henry, Huxley and Charles, and Darwin are all well-known contemporary figures. [

Herbert Spencer was born in Derby, England, the son of the respected educator Georgia Spencer.Coming from an educational family (both grandfather and uncle were educators), he was encouraged to study at a young age.

At an early age, he was regularly exposed to and developed an interest in academic textbooks and his father's periodicals.

At the age of 13, he was sent by his father to Hinton Chatschau, a small town near Bath.There his uncle was able to provide him with a formal education.At first, because he felt bored and resisted Latin and Greek classes, he didn't follow his uncle and even ran back home.

Later, he learned from his uncle and developed his early political and economic ideas to respond to his uncle's radical reform views.

In 1836, his uncle found him a job as a civil engineer for the railway.Spencer's experience at work made him stop pursuing in the industry. Instead, he felt that his boss made the workers overworked.

He even noticed that he began to make up his mind to write articles at this moment.In the years after he was 22, he kept visiting his uncle and sent relevant political letters to some radical newspapers, such as

It may be because he has a wealth of knowledge and rarely specializes in one subject.This makes his views and writings accessible and popular.He is called the detailed Spencer in the x club because of his deep research on the subject.But he often shifts projects, making his influence far and wide.

At age 60 Spencer was in very poor health. In 1882, he broke his custom of not going to church to attend the funeral of Charles Darwin. In 1902, he was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature.He devoted his whole life to writing.At the age of 83.

His life's works attracted many readers. 1869.He can even rely on the income from his writings to support himself.His works have been translated into many languages, such as German, Italian, Spanish, French, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, and have won many honors in Europe and North America.

His philosophy has proven useful to political conservatives, not just its application to social class structures.Also includes the concept of social justice, which emphasizes individual responsibility for nature and actions.

Spencer supported the law of equal liberty, a fundamental principle of libertarianism.Each individual can do what he chooses without violating the rights of others.

Many magistrates of the US Supreme Court base their conclusions on this principle when confronted with restrictions on government labor practices.But conservatives aren't the only ones using Spencer's theories to promote their own.

Many sociologists have applied his theory to explain class warfare.Governmentalists apply it to the belief in individual autonomy.

Spencer also had a great influence on literature and rhetoric.His Philosophy of Form (1852) started a trend of formalism in writing.

He pays great attention to the proper arrangement of the various parts of an English sentence, laying down guidelines for effective writing.Spencer's aim was to free prose from drag and inertia.

The reader is not slowed down by wrestling with context and the precise meaning of sentences.In this way writers can achieve maximum communication efficiency.This has become the most authoritative support for formalists in rhetoric.
