| Esotericism > Symbolism | |||
| By : A-C Debombourg - Friday, 20 November 2009 00:00 | |||
 The park of the chateau de Versailles has many symbolical and mythological which course looks like an initiatory path. Alain-Claude Debombourg shows us some keys of reading from the four elements, the Tree of life and Pythagorean mysteries. Thanks to them, the walker, if he wants to, can change into a thinker. Indeed, the first vocation of these gardens is a poetic research, but also an invitation to get closer to "Dame Cognoissance" as said Francesco Colonna in 1467 in Hypnerotomachia Poliphili.
How to explain this convergence of ancient myths to Renaissance modernity, religious and uninitiated, and omnipresence of eternal laws of nature. What interpretation can we make out of the lines of the Versailles gardens, piece of art by André Le Nôtre? And of the influence of many councilors initiated of Louis XIV (Colbert, Lebrun, Lully, Charles and Claude Perrault) ? Answer of our guide, in this 42-minutes report.
