Sylvan Barnet, the author of our textbook: A Short Guide to Writing About Art had a fascinating life. He was best known as a Shakespeare scholar and as an advocate for humanities education. He died five years ago. Here is a link to his obituary in the New York Times. For class next Tuesday, Feb. 2, read the first chapter of A Short Guide to Writing About Art, (1-36).
Everybody should have a copy of the 11th edition of this book. It was included in your art-kit. Send me an email message at csmith@dcad.edu if you don't have a copy.
