In the comments to this post David Cassia is rightly puts this question: It's not that we sometimes do a bit 'too much snob? We have a little ', the snobbish?
The question is not without foundation.
strong players and even more writers (or aspiring) have a snobbish attitude towards the national-popular fiction?
Widening the parameters of the question may include in the category of too snobby film experts, critics, music etc etc..
The thesis question is this: experts in a particular sector tend to be snobbish?
Before leaving to you the answer, I anticipate my own: in part, yes.
That is: there are several occasions when I find my snobbish attitude towards some kind of narrative. The vampire of the booklets mentioned above are examples of post-limit, when it is really difficult to draw something good. However, there is a substantial "gray zone" which includes the bestselling authors such as Faletti, Dan Brown, Camilleri, Moccia (vabbé. ..) that make me turn up their nose every time someone mentions it.
Not because they are particularly incapable (Moccia aside), but because they fall into that category of consumer electronics that brings us the strong players are allergic to just mention it.
Ok, some reason it is from ours: the average level of these authors is one of the sufficient and poor, with several minor variations in between. Faletti feel that half the world celebrates as the thriller of the decade can not that devalue snobbery to our eyes. Just us, we read Danilo Arona, Gianfranco Nerozzi, Eraldo Baldini (to mention only the Italians), and we feel that because of the Carbonari, outside of our snobbish circulate are very few people know their skill.
Not to mention books in their original language ebooks are swept up in the blogosphere and other alternative readings that procured in the most unthinkable. All experiences that maybe, just maybe, justify the snobbish that we continue to hear when someone mentions Licia Troisi as a champion of fantasy and Stephenie Meyer as the heir of Bram Stoker.
Ditto for film, eh! Do not think you escape, you critics who rejected after Avatar to promote the Swedish sci-fi movie that no producer would ever dream of Italian to distribute in Italy.
So, how much you snobs?
