| Explanation: Human knowledge
is composed of 10 pillars. The
order of the pillars follows a fundamental division
of knowledge into
four generic phenomena: knowledge (pillar 1), supernatural
(pillar 2), universe (pillars 3-4-5), and humans
(pillars 6-7-8-9-10). Foundations
(1) is focused on the metaknowledge (i.e. knowledge
about knowledge) of human knowledge.
The Supernatural (2) explores religion
and mysticism.
Matter & Energy (3) and Space & Earth (4) explore the
material
universe.
Non-Human Organisms (5) and Body and Mind (6) explore the living world. Note that
from a scientific
perspective they explore the Living World, while from
a
cultural perspective they belong
to different categories. Non-Human
Organisms is part of the
Universe (or nature), while Body &
Mind
is part of the humans. Society (7), Thought
& Art (8), Technology (9), and History (10) explore
various perspectives
of civilization (or culture). |
