Knowledge is past, Experience is present , Wisdom is future. Ex. Kissing: you know what kissing is, but each experience is different + unique
6° of separation: you know someone who knows someone who knows someone...if you know the right 6 people you know anyone in the world. How literature influences our other subjects
Keys to Dreamland: > Truth and beauty are conventional. Literature does not copy life. There are times when literature copies life. Stories are not unique, but different enough. Power to understand is important. Compare what you've seen/ read to other things you've seen/read. Literature show us a worlds we don't want
Pragmatic: when the critic compares the text to its effects on the reader/audience, how the reader feels or the reader's life, and time + society.
