Excellent discussion of the pursuit of perfection in the arts and work and what it does to the human soul. This book wasn't written about our time or our economy but boy does it have some strong words for us and specialization and the division of labor.

Ooooof. Convicting. He had some WORDS for the modern economic systems we live under. And he wrote this 200 years ago.

His discussion of the needle and the plough is interesting as I am considering handicrafts in a Charlotte Mason education and what it might take for my ADHD-ish brain to commit to one.

It's about art, but it isn't really about art. Definitely has some good little nuggets of wisdom and food for thought in here about theology, philosophy, art, and the soul of a people.
