Are you really a 40 y.o. woman, Butty?

Are you thin? Do you still have a sensual (female) body? If so, we can start a relationship in which I'll finally have the chance to whip you so constantly and thoroughly from head to toe that you will lose your ability to type. I'm young. This is your chance.

Yes he is a man LARPing as a woman, but let's not let this thread get derailed because of that degenerate, pseud faggot. Anyways I read Bloom's book on Shakespeare and loved it, so I ordered "The Western Canon" and it should be here in a few days. Anyone here ever read it? Thoughts on it?

It's good, but it's mostly geared to a popular audience/people who aren't very into books. He has a lot of charming sections, such as when he inverts scholarly convention and provides a "Shakespearean reading of Freud". I read it when I was really young & it really got me into close reading & interpretation.

If yer interested in unique Bloom books, I highly rec The Book of J. The premise is ultimately impossible to prove, but he does a great job of describing his thoughts on biblical authorship &c..

>>14051730
It's a very good book, but his bardolatry annoys me.

It's also very psychology-oriented. He writes a lot about Dante's characters and more or less ignores Dante's imagetic technique, which is, in my view, the major source of delight and greatness of vision in the Divine Comedy, and that which puts him above Shakespeare in my estimation.

Regardless, he writes very entertainingly and has many interesting insights. I like to say that people like Samuel Johnson, Harold Bloom and George Steiner aren't really critics, but rather novelists whose characters are books and other authors. That's what makes them more interesting than critics who are more analytical (even though this group also has its advantages).

I miss him. I disagreed with some of his ideas about Henry iv, and his Stratfordianism, but man he was quite the thinker. And he got me to think as well. He was Jewish, but it was a weird gnostic Judaism. Ultimately it was Bardolotry that truly defined him.

If you heard him speak, you'd know it was quite the contrary. Dude loved being alive and reading was all he had in life, so him dying ruins that for him. The person your post pertains to is more Kirk Douglas types than your Harold Blooms.
