To reconstruct the cycle which PI believes was formed by Hieronymus Bosch's triptych's. This reconstruction will demonstrate that it is the idea of the Ages of the World, intimately linked with a wealth of subordinate ideas, which is the leading thought of the cycle. This will in turn lead to understanding of the entire iconography of the triptych's and the intrinsic meaning of the art of Bosch as a whole.
