教養本ブームという病

Today’s episode explores the idea that the modern “cultured book boom” may reflect insecurity rather than genuine intellectual growth. I discuss how many people treat knowledge as an accessory for status instead of a lifelong transformation shaped by solitude, experience, and reflection. Short summaries, fast-learning promises, and efficiency-driven reading habits risk producing surface-level intelligence without depth. True culture, I argue, is not something you can acquire quickly, but something that slowly ferments through living, questioning, and confronting personal limits. This episode questions cost-performance thinking applied to learning and invites listeners to reconsider what it really means to become intellectually whole.
