“When you shake through the arguments, it becomes clear that the driving force keeping cursive alive is really just nostalgia and romanticism. As an art form, there’s definitely a benefit to cursive writing, and many artists take up lettering or calligraphy as their craft. But for the average person, it’s a skill that will likely not be retained and will definitely not be needed.”
I disagree with this writer wholeheartedly… perhaps the driving force she witnessed is nostalgia… but this is based on the assumption that the infrastructure that renders the art ‘no longer needed’, namely the internet itself… will always be in place… and in today’s volatile global landscape, I’m not ready to buy that.
