Information is endlessly available to us; where shall wisdom be found?" is the crucial question with which renowned literary critic Harold Bloom begins this impassioned book on the pleasures and benefits of reading well. For more than forty years, Bloom has transformed college students into lifelong readers with his unrivaled love for literature. Now, at a time when faster and easier electronic media threatens to eclipse the practice of reading, Bloom draws on his experience as critic, teacher, and prolific reader to plumb the great books for their sustaining wisdom. Shedding all polemic, Bloom addresses the solitary reader, who, he urges, should read for the purest of all reasons: to discover and augment the self. His ultimate faith in the restorative power of literature resonates on every page of this infinitely rewarding and important book.

读后感

“坏作品永远是一样的，伟大的作品却千差万别。” 哈罗德·布鲁姆的《如何读，为什么读》一书中可以抽离出很多铿锵有力掷地有声的“金句”，以上这句话还算是很平易的，但这句看似普通戏仿而来的句子却已经很好地说明了“为什么读”的问题。当然，“如何读”和“为什么读”永...  

文学是善的一种形式 顾文豪 刊于2011年6月18日《文汇报》 电影《国王的演讲》中有个颇有意味的段落，罗格医生拿《费加罗婚礼序曲》堵住伯蒂的耳朵，请他大声诵读莎翁名段“To be, or not to be—that is the question”。伯蒂满心疑虑战战兢兢，浑然不觉自己其实读得酣畅雄浑...  

读一本书，陪着书中人走过一段又一段漫长的旅途，到最后，无论是身心俱疲还是得到了治愈，终究都会无可避免的老去。一个真正的读者总会不知不觉间将书中人的人生经验植入自己的记忆之中，再去观照、思考和反思，最终比书中人老的更快。直至掩卷那一刻，不胜唏嘘恍如已经活完了...  

用户评价

Harold到底有多爱文学，爱到他觉得莎士比亚几乎可以代替上帝。不管认不认同他，那种激情还是让作为读者的我羡慕不已。（另外，友邻沙门哥写的书评很好，在书的首页可以看到）

给莎氏的情诗一首又一首

没有人能在一本两百余页的书中写透数十位历史上最伟大的诗人和作家，布鲁姆所做的则是将自己阅读的私人感悟分享出来。勾勒所选作品的大致情节以及独特之处，是为”how to read"; 解释这些作品在莎翁的影响之下所创造出的新的价值，回答了“why to read"; 而所有谈及的书目，则是布鲁姆在书名中没有点明的"what to read".
