It's interesting that the metaphor of seasons to track the change in civilization was used. Inherently, this implies a cyclical nature of civilization which, as was mentioned, could be aborted in the birth stage.

Moreover, seasons such as spring and winter come with certain connotations that could have influenced the placement of these ideas - enlightenment during winter appears incongruous.
