The Gutenberg Elegies: The Fate of Reading in an Electronic Age
Ballantine Books. 11/01/1995. 231 pgs. Birkerts takes on the question of whether reading, by which he means serious reading, will survive. Although one could easy make some depressing conclusions based on the assault on reading due to new technologies, one of the author's primary points is that the search for meaning is what makes us human; that search will continue, and perhaps the new technologies will mature and become repositories of meaning in the ways which reading has been for the last several centuries. He reminds us that even writing was regarded with suspicion in its early days; Plato lamented at how writing was destroying the venerable powers of memorization which intelligent people needed.
