Chapter 6 - Modern Architecture begins with the imagined awe of a traveler first glimpsing New York’s skyline at twilight—a moment filled with wild allure and grand silhouettes. Yet that same skyline, when viewed in the stark light of day, transforms into a display of disjointed ambition and architectural confusion. Towers rise without rhyme or rhythm, each clamoring for attention, none offering unity. Where cities of the past presented a visual dialogue of shared ideals, this cityscape resembles a…-

Chapter 17 - Etiquette At Home and Abroad begins by examining a cultural blind spot that many Americans and even some English people share: the undervaluing of politeness in everyday life. Unlike in certain parts of Europe where ceremonial respect is practiced even toward children, American families often neglect small courtesies at home. In St. Petersburg, the Grand Duchess Olga’s upbringing reflects how consistent respect shapes a person’s dignity and presence. The narrator contrasts this with the…

Chapter 18 — What is “Art”?
Chapter 18 - What is "Art"? opens with the recollection of a young artist's uncertainty in the shadowy world of foreign studios, where the phrase "it's not Art" was often wielded as a conclusive critique. These dismissals, vague yet powerful, cast doubt not only on the work produced but on the very identity of the creator. Among students and teachers alike, confusion reigned, as standards seemed subjective and ever-changing. There was no rulebook, only a chorus of opinions, many of which contradicted each…-
