“If the study of his images
Is the study of man, this image of Saturday,
This Italian symbol, this Southern landscape, is like
A waking, as in images we awake,
Within the very object that we seek,
Participants of its being.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“America is not civil, whilst Africa is barbarous.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
