Le langage des proportions est un langage de comparaison. Outil scientifique, il met en relation grandeurs mathématiques ou physiques (deux cercles, deux mouvements, deux sons, etc.). Pour autant, son application ne se restreint pas au seul champ des mathématiques. Erigé en principe philosophique par le principe de comparaison qui le sous-tend, il déploie tout son potentiel analogique en devenant langage constructeur d'harmonie. La théorie des proportions s'ouvre ainsi sur un vaste champ de relations qui définissent canons et règles de beauté dans les diverses disciplines artistiques. S'intéresser aux proportions signifie donc s'intéresser à tous les domaines du savoir. Mais comment aborder et comprendre, dans un dialogue transversal, sa dimension historique?
