ways of saying

I've put this pdf (an excerpt from my book) on the web, because in several posts we seem to be discussing "ways of saying" the concept. And at the same time we're struggling with not wanting to alter or misunderstand the original.

This is how I teach the history of visual style and content - from classicism to post-modernism and beyond. It relates to George Russell's River Trip explanation of jazz style (and I know I was very influenced by that when I first saw the '64 edition around 1990) - so I've added a page on jazz at the end.

What I want to illustrate is how simply diagrams can allow us to understand subtle differences between things - and learn.

Any comments? Visual or verbal.
