He is perhaps best known in the English-speaking world for his book <i>Europe, la voie romaine</i> (1992), translated into English as <i>Eccentric Culture: A Theory of Western Civilization</i> (2009). His masterwork thus far is his trilogy on the philosophical development of law in the West, <i>La Sagesse du monde: Histoire de l'expérience humaine de l'univers</i> (1999), <i>La Loi de Dieu. Histoire philosophique d’une alliance</i> (2005), and <i>Le Règne de l'homme: Genèse et échec du projet moderne</i> (2015). They have been translated into English as <i>The Wisdom of the World: The Human Experience of the Universe in Western Thought</i> (2004), <i>The Law of God: The Philosophical History of an Idea</i> (2007),<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and <i>The Kingdom of Man: Genesis and Failure of the Modern Project</i> (2018). </p><p>While his intellectual influences are various, Brague has developed some of the chief points of his unique account of Western intellectual history in dialogue with the controversial <a href="/wiki/Political_philosophy" title="Political philosophy">political theorist</a> <a href="/wiki/Leo_Strauss" title="Leo Strauss">Leo Strauss</a>. Brague has said, "Leo Strauss taught me that when reading a text, you must be open to the possibility that it contains different layers of meaning. All philosophical books written before <a href="/wiki/Age_of_Enlightenment" title="Age of Enlightenment">the Enlightenment</a> aim at both a wider audience and a small elite, able to understand the deeper meaning of the texts." This approach informed Brague's understanding of Maimonides and the medieval Muslim philosopher <a href="/wiki/Al-Farabi" title="Al-Farabi">Al-Farabi</a>, among others. Still, he declared himself unconvinced "that it applies to the Greek philosophers" in the way Strauss has taught. Brague holds that "Strauss became so convinced of his way of interpreting texts, that he came to apply it to all sorts of books, even <a href="/wiki/Miguel_de_Cervantes" title="Miguel de Cervantes">Cervantes</a>'<i> <a href="/wiki/Don_Quixote" title="Don Quixote">Don Quixote</a></i>. Strauss taught me to read very carefully.
