* [[File:FKoneczny.png]] '''Feliks Koneczny''' was Polish historian, theatrical critic, journalist and librarian. He mostly known for his theory of civilizations. Koneczny was part of [[File:EndecjaPix.png]] [[National Democracy]] movement, with his writings influencing not only it but whole Polish conservatism.

Koneczny 's theory is a pluralistic one, differing many civilizations but denying possibility of existence of any all-human. Among civilizations he described were four ancient ones ([[File:Hindutva.png]] Brahmin, [[File:Jew.png]] Jewish, [[File:PanTurk.png]] Turanian and [[File:Chine.png]] Chinese) and three medieval ones ([[File:PanArab.png]] Arab, [[File:LatinCath.png]] Latin and [[File:Cball-Byzantine.png]] Byzantine). This theory gave beginning to concept of German Byzantinism. This was possible due to Koneczny's view of civilization being cultural concept, not a racial or ethnic one - thus Poland as a whole was classified as part of Latin Civilization, while Piłsudski's regime, according to Koneczny, represented Turanian civilization. Within one civilization there can be multiple cultures, as culture is subdivision within a civilization.  

According to Koneczny there are few rules appealing to civilizations:  

* Mixtures of civilizations disappear due to lack of cohesiveness.
* One cannot be civilized by two ways (e.g. a Pole cannot belong to Latin and Jewish civilization at the same time)
* Two civilizations bordering each other will necessarily fight each other.
* Every civilization desires to civilize its neighbours according its own way.
* With equality and lack of fighting the inferior one wins.

Central element of Koneczny's theory is Quincunx concept. It describes five civilization-creating categories, namely: the Good, Truth, Beauty, Prosperity and Health. He tried to find categories existing through whole history of humanity as well as connecting spiritual and material spheres. Good and Truth belong to spiritual sphere, Health and Prosperity are part of material sphere, while Beauty connects both of spheres.  

Feliks Koneczny died on 10 February 1949 in Warsaw.
