Books only sources of wisdom?
When I was commenting blog of my friend, I had realized, that a lot of my wisdom are from the movies and computer games. It could sounds ridiclous, that I don't learn from books as much as from films (in case of that I don't reading too much), but I don't see a difference beetween books wisdom and other wisdom. I know, that there are some people on the world (like my mum), who think that computer games learn much less than books. However, from movies and games we could also learn history, languages, tactic thinking, or even maths. In my opinion it's all depends from author and destination of creation. If author decide to create book, movie , computer game or even comic only for entertaiment, his work would have few wisdom, but If author want to teach something his recievers, He would give them more "wise" work. So don't discriminate other sources of wisdom.
It's probably better to call them sources of knowledge, not wisdom.
OdpowiedzUsuńThere is a reason why films and games are not a perfect source of knowledge: they are produced for fun as a form of entertainment and, as such, by nature they twist the truth to make it look more attractive. They may provide you with valuable experiences but knowledge? Not so much.
Books, on the other hand, are often (though not always of course) written more carefully, researched and fact-checked if their purpose is to share knowledge.
