ABSTRACT
The Trans-Epoch period that will be presented in this work, will be the mid 1800's through to the 1960's. This period was and is one of the most fertile epochs in modern civilisation in that it saw a progression of major paradigmatic ideas develop and then evolve or reactively change.
From a Marxist standpoint of Stage Theory, the Theologians saw the shift from Feudalism to Capitalism and the embryonic shift from Capitalism to Socialism.
From a Social Theory perspective, the epoch was defined by its growth from Enlightenment Rationalism, through English, French, Russian and German Romanticism punctuated with short lived models of Fascism and Totalitarianism.
From the perspective of a History of Ideas, the Theologians saw the implantation of French and English Rationalism, the rise of Marxism, Darwinism, Freudian and Jungian Psychoanalytic thinking, the rise of Nietzsche's Übermensch, which by default, brought about 1920's Emancipation Individualism, Esoteric Fascism and ultimately the standardisation of Universal Democracy, developing into neo-liberalism, in the birth of the United Nations in 1947 and the Treaty of Rome in 1957.
From the viewpoint of Nation States, they saw the Unification of Germany under Bismarck, the shift from the British East India company to the British Empire, The Napoleonic Wars, The first World War, The Paris Peace Treaty of 1919, The Russian Communist Revolution, The Second World War and the dismantling of Empires and the birth of the United Nations.
I will propose that there are consistent identifiable features in all of their theologies that touch the idea frames of Cosmology and that these Cosmological Idea Frames form a coherent worldview that I will refer to as a Sophianc Worldview. This Sophianic Worldview is in real terms a synthesis of the vast scope of contextual understandings of the earlier mentioned Epoch in which so many ideas developed and evolved.
