		<description><![CDATA[Richard Lanham&#8217;s &#8216;The Economics of Attention &#8211; Style and Substance in the Age of Information&#8217; (2006) is indeed very worthwhile to be brought under attention. I concur with the Philadelphia Inquirer&#8216;s review: &#8220;Head-smackingly insightful&#8221; The gist: &#8220;If economics is about the allocation of resources, then what is the most precious resource in our new information [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to Jerome Bruner: “Living in a culture requires not only knowing what’s conventionally expected, but having some sense of the unexpected troubles that the conventional can produce. And now at last can we come to the functions of narrative, and why it is in effect universal. It is precisely narrative’s function to instantiate and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Reading about the functions of literature, I stumbled upon the following quote: “Perhaps the guerrilla promoters of literacy who offer a shag to anyone spotted reading a novel are on the right track. Novels, surely, can still be sexy, time wasting, and subversive—or do they have to be vitamin- enriched bowls conveying good-for-you moral fiber?” [...]]]></description>
