1979 Holiday Rambler Identification

encourage reading? WRITING FROM SOUTH CITY


April 23 marked the International Day of Book and Copyright instance from tyranny reigning advertising aims to spread the love of reading and a flowing respect for writers. Unproductive beyond the event, which in this city filled a room with liceanos those who inflicted the conference-dowdy to the scandalous-a nobleman of the academy, I would give some suggestions that they can serve to encourage reading primarily literary texts.

1) Let us fantasies: the reading in itself does not allow a person to have better opportunities in life. There are ministers of state who visited his last text (literary) at 20, because the mutation of the cognitive paradigm from print to audiovisual what has been done, at least for purposes of utilitarian knowledge so expensive these days, books are almost the height of the stone ax.

2) The books are essentially expensive. It's up to investigate into the used book stores, cheap in the Markets, appealing to exchange electronic devices (those who claim it is inhuman to have read this form of unreality) or vilified hacking (is it coincidence that a country like France, this practice does not exist?). The neo-illiteracy is more related to the saturation Information that in the absence of books, require best trainers and-such-an aggressive mark (I suggest the tactic of the Trojan horse) against bastardy television, bundles of papers not dead.

3) must spread the enthusiasm for literature by appealing to the intervention and surprise. Poets archimanidas reiterating formulas or believe that showmanship is for clowns, writers unable to get out of their heights ignorant caged officials often self-imposed negligence, or cultural agents who confuse irreverence (an essential condition for any innovation) with lack of respect, do so much for reading as barriers burocráticas por la iniciativa empresarial en Chile.

4) Como decía Montaigne, la lectura se relaciona demasiado con la felicidad. Poco sacamos con imponerla, y más allá de cualquier necesaria apelación a la disciplina o a la tolerancia a la hora de entrar en un texto, el concepto de lectura obligatoria es una contradicción.

5) Me permito contradecir el primer punto de esta columna. Las personas debieran leer más, sobre todo los líderes. Leer nos hace más tolerantes, diversos, ilustrados, menos consumistas y menos atados a placeres sensualistas. La lectura nos sume en una dulce intimidad, pone un freno entre en pensamiento y la acción, refresca nuestras mentes y nos libra del abismo de impossibilities, if it were an extension of our imagination. And about the gun, "is to laugh and not to anger as best kills."
