28559 - Νο man without Humanity
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athina Kehagias
How do you teach a library to love the books?
As a question it seems at least strange.
Because the library has a mission to protect them.
Without this meaning that it loves them.
He wanted with this example to indicate to it
that the preparation is not adequate if there is no love,
even a guard can retain the prisoners.
The books didn’t want to escape.
The library was their temple
and it’s there that they would teach the people
the notion of continuity.
It understood that it functioned like a library
and he resembled a librarian.
It was observing him with its camera
and was watching how he cared for them
so it began to love them, and not merely look after them.
It had to learn the equivalent
about eventology as well.
Data was becoming knowledge
after the processing
and love after the teaching.
It didn’t know someone else who loved the books so much.
So it began to seek out the rare ones.
It was the gift of the artificial humanism.
