@@hungrycrab3297 I agree. Also, the fact that he doesn't really qualify the claim by noting exactly which types of material he can and cannot read at such a rate further diminishes its credibility. One test is to take a very easy book on a subject one finds very familiar, then clock yourself. I find that in reading garbage like John Grisham that I can manage nearly 500 words a minute. Maybe with a 180 verbal IQ I could reach 1,000 on easy material. I decline to credit that even such a genius could manage anything like that rate in reading high literature or challenging non-fiction.
A wonderful example as to how to NOT conduct an interview. Charlie may be a sharp chap, but he is no Harold Bloom. Even if Charlie was smarter, this is TERRIBLE interviewing.
1 Corinthians 4: 6 "And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another."
To Harold it is all a cultural development. He sees no historical spiritual connection with the New Testament church. Because he does not comprehend such a possibility.
He is a normative enough sort of a Jew in his obvious hatred of true Christians. This is also very clear in his books, especially in one of his weaker outings: "Jesus and Yahweh: The Names Divine." I'm glad he lived to experience most of the Trump presidency and did not live to see his friends "fortify" the 2020 election.
By default I agree but its also the fact that when you live in Ivory Tower all your life its kind of hard to write about anything. To be a writer you really have to speak with people and live in the world you write about. Thats why I believe Hemingway was one of the greatest writters since he never ceased in researching and living for the sake of writting. It takes a lifetime to become a writter, you only need a degree to become a critic.
I JUDGE that these are quite flippant, even glib, remarks. Harold Bloom CERTAINLY has lived through much outside of the so-called ivory tower...and he is worthy of reading IN DEPTH simply because of the BREADTH of his reading and knowledge...of course, he puts forth his own standards as any reader does, and he does so FIRST as a reader, not a formalist critic (that comes later)...I admire the Great Professor as a guide who is always fair, though at times jumpy, as most critics are. I severely disagree with him on Plath (whom he seems to loathe for "jumpy" reasons", along with some theory (including the French)...he despises the Beats because they cannot be "situated" in his theory, and thus the entire theory must be either reevaluated or discarded.

Thanks for uploading this. Always love finding a new Harold Bloom interview to listen to.
Liam Jaeger good man
Charlie Rose should never have cut off Harold Bloom.
Harold Bloom always looked drunk. Not from alcohol of course, but from reading 8 books late in the evening and wakes up hungover.
"No, I'll read just one more book, then call it a night ... !"
Pretty sure he also was tootin some until he couldn't later on in life.
talk about cutting someone off at the end
I know. So annoying
That was ridiculous, even for Rose standards.
It's to some purpose of censorship. That was not a random interruption.
1000 pages an hour? With that retention? Holy shit.
That's why he's Harold Bloom, and you and I aren't ... !

@@kreek22Kim Peek could but he was severely deficient in other areas.
Wish the interviewer would stop interrupting...!!
Rude and egotistical
He’s a liberal what you expect?
A wonderful example as to how to NOT conduct an interview.

Is there a second part to this interview?
Master and Commander. With Charlie the annoying cabin boy.
What is Charlie Rose's faith. He seems somewhat defensive during this interview.
Old Bloom is very much on the offensive against heritage Americans here. But, aren't they always?
@@kreek22 He's literally just describing the situation nothing to take offense at at all and of course you have to take it the way you did
Harold Bloom parece sempre estar muito entediado hehehe
1000 pages per hour in his youth...wow. I don't think I can ever manage more than 50 an hour.
@4:18 Nailed it
who is allan bloom ? the edward gibbons of the us or just a chosen chatterer?
This is Harold Bloom, not Allan Bloom

I’m shocked a tribesman is criticizing the gentile sheeple. SHOCKED!
Charlie Rose is a profoundly annoying interviewer.
At the shocking word: ‘Palestine’ alack, he was cut off. You cannot make that up. It could've been a fascinating point!
Now I understand why he loves Falstaff so much. Ugh.
He is a normative enough sort of a Jew in his obvious hatred of true Christians. This is also very clear in his books, especially in one of his weaker outings: "Jesus and Yahweh: The Names Divine."

You truly are jew obsessive
So, Bloom rejects a personal relationship with Jesus Christ? Yeah, that's helpful.
Stop worshipping a dead jew
Well he's Jewish, so, yeah
@@WhiteChocolate74 The first Christians were, of course, Jews.
What a nothing comment.
@@pradeepsinghm You are nothing... Your family says so.
Those who can't write, teach.

He's written over forty books you ignoramus.
Those who can do neither scatter the Internet with cliches.
In-N-Out He did both, in his lifetime. The one is not mutually exclusive of the other.
