The Most Evident Effect of the Politicization…

The most evident effect of the politicization of culture, the main manifestation of which is art, is the inhibition of creativity. In literature, the result is works that can do anything but surprise the reader. And that is where the problem arises: although a work does not necessarily have to stand out for its surprising nature in order to be good, predictability, when absolute, is simply intolerable. A work whose course is already predetermined by an ideology, whatever it may be, is a dead work, and the artists who voluntarily imprison themselves in this unfortunate cell are dead beforehand.
