"Suppose that there is an outlook intuitively sketched out (sometimes negatively) in some imaginary interplay among the following texts. (I ask almost nothing from the idea of this interplay. It is not meant to do more than momentarily activate the fantasy, perhaps it vanishes early, that there is a place in the mind where the good books are in conversation, among themselves and with other sources of thought and pleasure; what they often talk about, in my hearing, is how they can be, or sound, so much better than the people who compose them, and why, in their goodness, they are not more powerful.)"

Cavell, Introduction, Conditions Handsome & Unhandsome, 4-5. (My professor lent me this book, so I feel compelled to find all I can in it--specifically, connections between both of the papers I'm writing, before I start writing either of them--before I return it.)
