• 1. Celebrating the 120th Anniversary of the Birth of ToynbeeThe present age is the great time of change in the history of humancivilizations,which demands a holistic view of the history of mankind and therecognition of mutual relationships. Toynbee is one of the predecessors whowere aware of intellectual change of the world. It is of great significance forus to learn of Toynbee's historical insight and perspective in this 120thAnniversary of the Birth of Toynbee.2. The Toynbee Thought of Today An indicator for the study ofGlobalizationToynbee pursued "Globalization"in a unique historical perspective as ifhe anticipated today's problem. He examines the future theory of the worldstate historically. The unification of the world and its destiny after themodern age, its holistic viewpoint and the esotericism of human existencehave profound ideological meaning.3. Toynbee's intellectual background overcoming love of HellenismToynbee's special field is traditional"Classical Greece." But his intellectualinterest expands the traditional periodization of history to the wholehistory of Greece. After his "Thucydides experience"during the first WorldWar, he begins to see the drastically changing modern history, and theexpansion and deepening of historical cognizance became the fountainhead ofcultivating his own intellect.4. Toynbee's Comparative Civilization beyond "modern historicism"Toynbee's comparative civilization intends to overcome traditional historicalscience with academic reexamination. His proposal is new comprehensivescience transcending modern Europe-centrism and autonomy of historicalscience. Toynbee's A Study of History, his magnum opus, symbolizes anacademic transformation from history to comparative civilization, whichrenews historical study.5. The Image of 21st century Civilization and ToynbeeWe are in the Age of Global civilization and the new division of worldhistory. We need to construct a "global ethos"(a common value system ofmankind) which cultivates the identical unity of man and historical commonality.It is our mission and is very important to reconsider Toynbee'sgreat concept and intellectual heritage as an academic paradigm of the 21stcentury.
