Both the reading and the lecture talk about the reasons that litterature books have been less popular among people and it caused the cultural problems. Although the author states some explanations the results of being dicsonnected to litterature books and decline of culture, the lecturer finds them dubious and provides three counter reasons to refute them all.
First, the reading explains that the lack of intellectual stimulation and imagination is one of the results of abandoning reading novels and poems. On the other hand, based on the lecture, a book should not be a litterature one neccassrily to stimulate the creativity or people's intellectual activity. History books, political analyses and other well-written challenging books can have the same effect on people's mind and culture.
Second, the author claims that people are more attracted by television and online reading which has decreased the level of culture. In contrast, the lecture opposes this notion by stating that the ways of expressing culture has changed a lot recently and there are numerous forms of indicating the culrtural behaviors which can directly point to the concern and meaning.
Third, the author states that the lower number of litterature readers have caused gifted writers to be disappointed about flourishing their talents. However, the lecturer asserts that maybe it's not the readers fault that the litterature writers have faced serious problems about their published books. According to the lecture, some contemporary novels are so difficult to understand that no body likes to pursue them. Thus, there is no reason that earlier generations may have read these poor-written novels.
