You can study online, but for that you need both a motivated student, willing to do research on its own and a teacher that can ignite the "passion for learning", considering a lot of teachers are what I call "textbook teachers"(repeat what i say, with no critical thought), is rather hard to motivate anyone.
Well i heard this from a teacher "we want to cancel class. We know he reading from some paper on his briefcase which he put it on table.
Lmfao not Mein Kampf.....
That's a bit of a debate there:
I think I kinda understand why some teachers are being textbook one rather than trying to bother themselves when the salary will be the same regardless. Some can just not handle troublesome students and they're not paid a lot nor have learnt how to handle them...
Good point... Money is an important factor, with teacher salaries you can barely make a living, much less if you have a family to maintain. You have long hours(between 9 to 11), unmotivated kids, parents and students that often get violent, because you give their "perfect kid" some bad grade or a citation for violence(Blades are common here and occasionally firearms).
Yeah, comics/manga/etc are more 'onboarding' texts on the journey to literacy rather than literature and/of themselves. They're unquestionably art, but they are a small step on the journey that we are supposed to take towards adult, mature, complex texts that actively encourage cultural development - we are not meant to simply hang out with these books forever as we age and become more mature people.
Getting to know what ramblings an insane man and his idealogy that will reshape the world and Europe is interesting what's wrong with reading such things?Lmfao not Mein Kampf.....
nothing. but some people think that another one of him will rise up if exposed to such things. considering how weirdly stupid and/or naive humans can be, it is an argument that has some merit.
Nothing wrong, it's an important piece of history, although I've no interest in reading it and have been told that it's quite rambly and repetitive
The dangers are understood i think the idealogy is based off wrong basis anyway , also I don't have the speaking capabilities of adolf so i can't rally people behind me even IF i wanted to.
it is a good idea to understand what happened in the past. a fun fact that i learned about adolf is that he wanted to be a painter, but apparently wasn't good at it.
The thing with Mein Kampf is that there is little to gain from reading it in full, outside of close academic study - the key tenets of Hitler are very clear and obvious from the first three pages, with little new information OR prose, as he was infamously a poor writer from both intellectual and creative lenses. You would become far smarter after reading a selection of passages with a good teacher than you would be after reading the entire book: the book is an incoherent collection of rambling and ravings that are not only highly repetitive, they become actively useless to read after a while because you’re seeing the manifesto of syphilis and meth addiction. In short, to understand the guy you can pretty much take the previous 80 years of commentary at face value - much more is to be gained from reading commentary on him & Nazism than Mein Kampf.
My only worry is that some would find complacency in only reading comics and mangas without wanting to try "higher level of verbose".
I remember someone saying that this kind of book should still be available to read, not as an advice but as a warning. Making a book forbidden/banned/illegal to read would not only do the reverse effect (people are often attracted to what's not in their reach and extremists will use that as an excuse to pose as victims from censorship) but also the fact that "those who forget about History's past mistakes are bound to repeat them again". If there's no more physical traces of it existing some would even claim there hasn't been any to begin with.
yeah you are very correct, it isnt exactly "literature", but it is a work of writing is what i meant to say. but i believe manga and comics to be a small step that might help kids integrate reading into their lives. either that, or there are some books in my country that are shortened versions of world classics and have explanations under some terms to have the kids get a better grasp. i started with the shortened world classics and i then started reading comics and manga. my ex gave me a good book for my birthday though which is really sick. (Baltasar & Blimunda by Jose Saramago, i heavily suggest that book for everyone.)
this is exactlt what i meant to say thank you my third favourite dragon ball character (sawry i love vegeta)
i agree, schools are sadly not helping. they used to give us these books which were pretty cool at times but when they make us buy these because there will be exams about these i feel it dulls their beauty. see i love literature and art and stuff, but when you make us buy these books PURELY because we will take an exam after is not fun. it makes the book boring, and nothing more than some class material.
Only if the manga/comic reader is willing to get out of his zone of comfort or else he will stagnate.
Simply because that wouldn't "elevate" the level or reading.
Greatly improved accuracy (almost 100% compatible with comercial releases)...
