It has long been an article of our folklore that too much knowledge or
skill,
or especially consummate expertise, is a bad thing. It dehumanizes
those who
achieve it, and makes difficult their commerce with just plain folks, in
whom
good old common sense has not been obliterated by mere book learning or
fancy
notions. This popular delusion flourishes now more than ever, for we
are all
infected with it in the schools, where educationists have elevated it from
folklore to Article of Belief. It enhances their self-esteem and lightens
their labors by providing theoretical justification for deciding that
appreciation, or even simple awareness, is more to be prized than knowledge,
and relating (to self and others), more than skill, in which minimum
competence will be quite enough.
