Was not published in the UK until 1975 (Viking Press) then Italy in 2010. (183*115 mm). (JCP Society). 'The aim of this book,' he declares, 'is to narrow down a vague and somewhat evasive conception, which hitherto, like aristocracy or liberty, has come to imply a number of contradictory and even paradoxical elements, and to give it, not, of course, a purely logical form, but a concrete, particular, recognizable form, malleable and yielding enough and relative enough, but with a definite and quite unambiguous temper, tone, quality, atmosphere, of its own.' The book is in two parts: Analysis of Culture which deals with, in separate chapters, Philosophy, Literature, Poetry, Painting and Religion: Application of Culture which covers Happiness, Love, Nature, The Art of Reading, Human Relations, Destiny and Obstacles to Culture.
