"Beauty . . . is relative; and the definition of it becomes
unmeaning and useless in proportion to its abstractness."

Walter Pater's Studies in the History of the Renaissance (1868; 1873)



Prepare
: read text & P.O.F.s carefully before class

Speak: share your ideas, supported by textual examples

Write: practice active listening--take notes and create marginalia

Respond: argue, ask questions, and propose alternatives to others' ideas
