Excerpt from Entretiens sur l''Architecture
De tous côtés mes amis me signalaient une levée de boucliers, une lutte acharnée; de part et d''autre on espérait voir rompre force lances. Le bruit est ennemi de l''étude j''aime l''étude, je déteste le bruit. Je laissai donc passer cet orage, qui, ne trouvant rien à renverser, en fut pour ses éclats et ses foudres perdus; je renfermai le texte préparé de mon cours dans mon portefeuille et pensai a d''autres affaires. Aujourd''hui, je laisse bien volontiers la chaire a ceux qui l''occupent avec un talent auquel je ne prétends pas atteindre et une autorité incontestable.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of art, questioning the widely-held belief that artistic achievement is dependent on a society's level of civilization. The author argues that art is not a product of a particular civilization but rather an expression of human nature. Through a philosophical examination of various art forms and their development, the author asserts that art is a universal language capable of captivating the human soul across time and cultural boundaries. The book also challenges the notion of barbarism in art, arguing that artistic value should not be conflated with the level of a society's advancement. The author concludes by reflecting on the enduring power of art, underscoring its significance as a reflection of the human experience.
