At O'Reilly Radar, Doug Hill with a worthy read on the late Apple CEO: "I'd like to talk here about a spirit that Jobs carried within himself. It's a spirit he relied on for inspiration, although he seemed at times to have lost track of its whisper. In any event, what it says can tell us a lot about our relationship to machines. I refer to the spirit of Romanticism. I spent much of this past summer reading about the Romantics — the original Romantics, that is, of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries — and it's remarkable how closely their most cherished beliefs correspond to principles that Jobs considered crucial to his success at Apple."
Steve Jobs, Romantic
