520    Reading great literature well has the power to cultivate 
       virtue. Great literature increases knowledge of and desire
       for the good life by showing readers what virtue looks 
       like and where vice leads. It is not just what one reads 
       but how one reads that cultivates virtue. Reading good 
       literature well requires one to practice numerous virtues,
       such as patience, diligence, and prudence. And learning to
       judge wisely a character in a book, in turn, forms the 
       reader's own character. Acclaimed author Karen Swallow 
       Prior takes readers on a guided tour through works of 
       great literature both ancient and modern, exploring twelve
       virtues that philosophers and theologians throughout 
       history have identified as most essential for good 
       character and the good life. In reintroducing ancient 
       virtues that are as relevant and essential today as ever, 
       Prior draws on the best classical and Christian thinkers, 
       including Aristotle, Aquinas, and Augustine. Covering 
       authors from Henry Fielding to Cormac McCarthy, Jane 
       Austen to George Saunders, and Flannery O'Connor to F. 
       Scott Fitzgerald, Prior explores some of the most 
       compelling universal themes found in the pages of classic 
       books, helping readers learn to love life, literature, and
       God through their encounters with great writing. In 
       examining works by these authors and more, Prior shows why
       virtues such as prudence, temperance, humility, and 
       patience are still necessary for human flourishing and 
       civil society.
