"The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship.……" — Camille Paglia

"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
