Hi Fi - Νους - κοινωνία - περιβάλλον
Αξίζουν, νομίζω συγχαρητήρια για το editorial του High Fidelity του τεύχους 11 (07-08/2007) από τους Μαρκουλή, Παναγόπουλο.
Μπράβο παιδιά, επιτέλους πρέπει να δείχνουμε ότι μέσα στο κεφάλι μας δεν υπάρχει ο «κάλος» του Hi Fi αλλά και δυο δράμια μυαλό.
Περιμένω και συνέχεια
Dr. J. Evans Pritchard, Ph.D.
Μήπως είστε από αυτούς που αξιολογούν το γραπτό λόγο με την κλίμακα Pritchard; Γιατί αν ναι τότε διαβάστε το ακόλουθο:
John Keating, Teacher ( Playes by Robin Williams ) :
Gentlemen, open your texts to page 21 of
this introduction. Mr. Perry, will you
read the opening paragraph of the
preface entitled “Understanding Poetry”?
Neil, Student :
“‘Understanding Poetry,’ by Dr. J. Evans
Pritchard, Ph.D. To fully understand
poetry, we must first be fluent with its
meter, rhyme and figures of speech, then
ask two questions: 1) How artfully has
the objective of the poem been rendered
and 2) How important is that objective?
Question 1 rates the poem’s perfection;
question 2 rates its importance. And
once these questions have been answered,
determining the poem’s greatness becomes
a relatively simple matter.”
“If the poem’s score for perfection is
plotted on the horizontal of a graph and
its importance is plotted on the
vertical, then calculating the total
area of the poem yields the measure of
its greatness.”
“A sonnet by Byron might score high on
the vertical but only average on the
horizontal. A Shakespearean sonnet, on
the other hand, would score high both
horizontally and vertically, yielding a
massive total area, thereby revealing
the poem to be truly great. As you
proceed through the poetry in this book,
practice this rating method. As your
ability to evaluate poems in this matter
grows, so will, so will your enjoyment
and understanding of poetry.”
Keating :
Excrement. That’s what I think of Mr. J.
Evans Pritchard. We’re not laying pipe.
We’re talking about poetry. How can you
describe poetry like American Bandstand?
“Oh, I like Byron. I give him a 42, but
I can’t dance to it.” Now, I want you to
rip out that page. Go on. Rip out the entire page.
You heard me. Rip it out. Rip it out! Go on.
