This tag was created by @materiagrix and I was tagged by @BookishTexan
Tagging: @AnnNovella and @Rainierbooks
The prompts:
-Give me your own definition of reading or use this: "Reading is the act of interpretation of symbols that systematically put together in a certain sequence, allow the reader to extract meaning from them in an active form of creation that can develop into complex narratives."
-Given your chosen definition, are reading and interpretation the same thing? If not, In what do they differ?
-Are there any practices that you consider reading but that would fit that or other definitions of reading?
-Is there an ideal reading experience for you? What is it? Is there a book that represents it?
-If there is such thing as an ideal reading experience, it follows that there is a scale of value to reading. What is at the bottom?
-Is there a book on that bottom that you love or enjoyed as much as those on the top?
-Is reading as the art of associating symbols and creating meaning out of them, a predecessor of language, or does it come after as a consequence of those languages?
-Is everything that can be read/with meaning a language?
-Mention a few languages that defy the conventional conception of what a language is. Could a book be written in any of those languages?
-If you could boundlessly read/understand the meaning in one of those languages. Which one would it be? Why?
