Features: The cultural tradition of Europe, in the process of inheritance, diverges from a common origin, involving criticism and rejection, yet innovation emerges within this criticism and rejection. Since the 15th century, the scientific thinking and practice, as well as the gestation, germination, and growth of the concepts of freedom and democracy, have been clearly visible in the "history of the spirit." Europe is not merely a geographical concept; it is also a cultural one. The culture of Europe is vast and profound.
