    “I summon to the winding ancient stair;
    Set all your mind upon the steep ascent,”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism.... Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.”
    —Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
