Summary/Abstract: The author describes three scenes that allow the reader to better see the role of meetings with great figures which stand behind classical culture. The first one is a vision of a garden at a dramatic moment of its destruction, while the second one leads to a dark and sinister forest which paradoxically becomes a place of salvation. The last scene is meant to make us ask ourselves whether we are still participants in the same culture that we saw in the first two scenes.
