Pierre de Coubertin refused a sclerosed world which did
not correspond to the image of his aspirations. To the
harmonious equilibrium of each human being must correspond
peace and social justice, peace and international justice.
Any humanist possesses the sense of the continuity of
man’s destiny. Pierre de Coubertin shares with us
his judgment on the irreplaceable value of Universal History.
He reedited the «Charte de l’enseignement historique»
(Charter of Historical teaching) in emphasizing the importance
of an objective vision of the world, in the forefront
of meditations and dreams; by it each can have access
to the conscience of a common existence. However, for
Pierre de Coubertin, the significance of equilibrium and
beauty s revealed only to those who have first put their
soul in tune with itself, to participate, thereafter,
totally in the general work.
