«L'Art de se taire» is the essay by Abbé Dinouart, published by Editions Jérôme Millon in paperback (96 pages, in French).
The treatise proposes silence as a paradoxical form of eloquence: when language ceases, the body speaks. Dinouart places it in the classical rhetorical tradition as a forgotten discipline and turns it into a tool for self-governance and governing others, linked to prudence and circumspection. Silence is a political category.
This edition belongs to the Petite collection Atopia series. Work originally published in 1771 under the title «L'art de se taire, principalement en matière de religion».
Recommended for readers interested in practical philosophy, classical rhetoric, and the history of ideas about prudence and self-governance.
