OverviewOver time, what captures the attention creates the person as full of character. Charlotte Maria Shaw Mason's insight that inspiring the child to attend to the narration of literature, then to recall it as fully as possible, offers an engaging and effective means to train the attention.

This monograph argues that attention is the latest aspect of human existence to be commodified as 'clickbait' within a political and economic system that monetises everything within its power. Mason's Principle 20 speaks of 'duties and joys'.
