Certainly the modern era, at least under the banner of science, has prized objectivity and inclusiveness. But to look at everything without knowing each thing's proper place and value is not what we sense from Leonardo. We moderns take in everything and know the meaning of nothing. He seems to have felt the meaning of all that he regarded. Would that this were modernity–in fact, it is the very opposite. It is not just that our good and evil are not in relationship. Do we even have a good and evil?

A Question and a Response
