| Tiivistelmä: | In today's technology-driven world, who has time to pick up a 400-page novel? But according to Harold Bloom, one of America's most influential scholars, they should make time in their hectic schedules to read great works. In a wide- ranging conversation with HBR senior editor Diane Coutu, Bloom discusses the importance of literature: every individual - regardless of profession - needs to stretch his or her mind and reflect now and again on the human condition. Because there are so many great works and there is so little time, Bloom presents a reading list for busy executives. In short, Bloom believes the humanities have much to offer businesspeople: great books broaden their awareness and their range of sensibility, but reading literature will not make businesspeople more moral. |
