His (Herder en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Gottfried_Herder ) most important ideas, which emerged clearly in the aftermath of his tumultuous intellectual experience aboard ship and subsequently influenced the Romantics, are the following: Everything is history. This is valid not only for human beings and their culture but also for Nature. Understanding the history of Nature as a history of development that has brought forth the diversity of natural forms was a new way of thinking, for with this idea, the divine creation of the world is not comprehended as a natural process. Nature is itself that creative power which, before Herder, had been relegated to an otherworldly realm. The development goes through different stages, the mineral, the vegetable, and the animal. Each stage is complete in its own right, but at the same time contains the germ of the one immediately above it. And all are pre-stages of man, whose distinction consists in being able and needing to take control of the creative power that works through Nature. Man can do this by virtue of intelligence and language; be must do it because he is instinct-poor and thus unprotected. The culture-creating power is therefore the expression of both a strength and weakness.

With thought Herder shows himself the forerunner of modern anthropology -- man as the culture-creating animal with instinctual deficiencies. For Herder, Human cultural history belongs to natural history, but a natural history in which the power of Nature, previously working in unconscious ways, now pressed through to consciousness of itself in human thought and its intentional creative energy. Humanity’s self-achieved transformation and the formation of culture as life-environment: this Herder calls “human advancement.”
