Více o knize
The classification of books in Jefferson's libraries reflects his belief in the essential role of the Fine Arts in education, particularly for Virginians. He identified eight crucial arts: architecture, gardening, painting, sculpture, rhetoric, belle lettres, poetry, and music. Jefferson argued that these arts cultivate an individual's faculties of taste, reason, and moral sensitivity, which are vital for personal development and societal well-being. An unrefined imagination, he warned, could hinder rational thought and ethical awareness, underscoring the importance of a well-rounded education.
