Meer over het boek

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.
