Summary: "Visages d'hier et d'aujourd'hui" by André Beaunier is a collection of essays exploring contemporary thought and personalities, written in the early 20th century. The work reflects on a multitude of ideas and figures from the past and present, primarily focusing on the challenges and transformations of intellectual landscapes. Beaunier introduces a discourse on the nature of contemporary ideology, presenting a fragmented yet insightful representation of literary and philosophical voices. The opening of the work sets the stage for a reflective essay that critiques the chaotic evolution of ideas in modern times compared to the structured thought of the past. The author establishes a metaphorical framework likening contemporary ideology to "a broken mirror," suggesting that current ideas are disjointed and lacking cohesion. He mentions various notable personalities, such as the viscount de Vogüé, urging a recognition of the spiritual and moral dimensions of life often overlooked in a rapidly changing world. Through this initial lens, Beaunier invites readers to engage with the complexities of thought and the significance of historical influences on current beliefs and values.
