I don't enjoy his comedy, probably because I'm not in his target demographic, but I really, genuinely respect him as a person. He has a young and impressionable audience and he is encouraging them to read good books and work out. That is awesome.

Of course he did, he has been aping the /lit/ charts for quite a while, and as is common for this board, he sucks at reading and has surface-tier at best interpretations that boil down to "ugh, book good because good, a bit boring, but good"

So what? Seriously, do you want every reader to be a scholar? To read and engage with the critical literature surrounding some book? Are you a fag?

>> No.17635592

>>17635547
Pewds, thousands of scholars spend years making work only a dozen people read on texts that you read - it would be nice if you read an essay or two by a scholar before making your videos that you present to millions, just so you can go a little deeper.

Pewdiepie if you are reading this I do not think the classics are quite your speed. At least not yet. You seem to struggle with books that have complex themes.

Might I suggest reading Robert E. Howard's Conan stories? I consider them a cut above basic, ordinary popular literature but they are still fundamentally easy to follow. They're well-written, too. Good for a beginning reader.

Look, dipshit, if you're gonna broadcast to the world about it and be a show off, then at least know the shit you're talking about in the first place and don't make a fool out of yourself. Regardless that his audience is filled with morons that don't know any better, the point stands and being into books for aesthetics only is as dishonest as dishonest can be.

Fuck off. Let him read what he wants, ape.

Pewdiepie, read Harold Bloom's The Western Canon. It is a good book for someone who wishes to get a deeper introduction into the classics.
However, you may first enjoy reading Bloom's book How to Read and Why, or perhaps his book Genius, if you wish to have a nice introduction to authors that you are not familiar with yet.
