I read it on web and thought I would share here:

One is a professor surrounded and besieged by huddled students. The other is a solitary scholar, sitting in the tranquility and privacy of his chambers, at ease in the spacious and comfy room where his thoughts can move freely. Here we encounter the tumult of schools, the dust of classrooms, the indifference to beauty in collective workplaces,
There, it is all order and beauty, Luxe, calme et volupte'
Jacques Le Goff To my way of thinking the trader is the "Solitary Scholar" Using order and beauty instead of "Noise"
