Weltansicht
Weltansicht
English
Noun
Weltansicht (plural Weltansichts)
- (literary) The general attitude toward life and reality that an individual or character demonstrates.
- 2012, James David Audlin, The Circle of Life:
- The language we think and speak in shapes our Weltansicht, our perception and understanding of the nature of existence, and those who think primarily in terms of the subject (self) acting on objects (things) are more prone to change and take from what and who is around them to their advantage.
