    Oswald Spengler (1880-1936) is considered a prominent figure in the Weimar Republic. His book, the Untergang des Abendlandes (firs part, published in 1918, the second in 1922) was the most widely discussed book, and had a great influence on the thinkers of the interwar period.Among the interesting features of the original style of this book is that even its title can be translated in different ways, and although the variants are close in meaning, they reflect different semantic nuances. The word "der Untergang" can mean both the collapse, the death, and just the twilight, and the unset of the celestialluminary, followed by the inaugural dawn. And a not word inthephrase – das Abendlandes (literally - eveningland) – one of the specific German terms to refer to Western Europe. Unfortunately, tha translation does not convey this play of words - "twilight" and "eveningland."
