Unlivre du pluscritique littéraire américain sur les usages de la lecture approfondie. Pratique, inspirant et savant, How to Read and Why est le manifeste de Bloom pour la prépondérance de la culture écrite. Dans le très influent The Western Canon, Harold Bloom a décrit ce que nous devrions lire pour comprendre une plus e profondeur de l'individu. How to Read and Why poursuit l'argumentation et se concentre sur la façon dont nous utilisons la littérature afin d'acquérir une plus e conscience de soi. Poèmes, histoires, romans, pièces de théâtre et paraboles sont tous analysés comme des formes d'écriture comme immersion, le langage de l'individualité et de l'intériorité : les sonnets de Shakespeare, les nouvelles d'Hemingway et de Cervantès, les romans de Proust et Calvino, Œdipe Roi de Sophocle et l'Évangile de Marc. Harold Bloom aborde également l'idée de la raison pour laquelle nous lisons : une individualité accrue, un répit du bombardement visuel, un retour ausentiment profondet à lapensée profonde . Comment lire et pourquoi est un livre essentiel pour tout lecteur, une introduction au monde de la culture écrite, un livre d'auto-assistance inspirant pour les étudiants et les enseignants.

One of the greatest literary critics in the world today, Harold Bloom is Sterling Professor of Humanities at Yale University, Berg Professor of English at New York University, and a former Charles Eliot Norton Professor at Harvard. He was described in the ‘New York Times’ as ‘a colossus among critics’.
Harold Bloom, one of the great literary critics and champion of written culture, asserts that we read in order to better understand and fortify our sense of our own individuality. In this essential book he offers a reading list of works, some famous, some less well-known, that allows readers to fully explore dimensions of themselves. Practical, inspirational and learned, How to Read and Why reveals that the close reading and re-reading of great literature can sustain, enrich and strengthen every aspect of our own lives.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. A new book by Americas leading literary critic on the uses of deep reading. Practical, inspirational and learned, How to Read and Why is Blooms manifesto for the preponderance of written culture. In the vastly influential The Western Canon, Harold Bloom outlined what we should read to understand a greater depth of the individual self. How to Read and Why continues the argument and focusses on how we use literature in order to gain deeper self-awareness. Poems, stories, novels, plays and parables are all analysed as forms of writing as immersion, the language of individuality and inwardness: Shakespeares sonnets, the short stories of Hemingway and de Cervantes, the novels of Proust and Calvino, Sophocless Oedipus Rex and Marks Gospel. Harold Bloom also addresses the idea of why we read: increased individuality, respite from visual bombardment, a return to deep feeling and deep thinking. How to Read and Why is an essential book for any reader, an introduction to the world of written culture, an inspirational self-help book for students and teachers alike. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR001322305
