As mentioned in this week’s introduction, your goal in reading this book is to expand how you understand the role of the reader, which is you! Through explorations of classic imagery and famous creative works, the text will teach by example how different approaches to a source can lead to different ideas and interpretations. Enjoy the ride, but also be conscious of how author Alberto Manguel’s seemingly unimportant observations about the object of his scrutiny are deftly crafted into fully supported ideas.
