• ABOUT US

    Literature HK was founded to make English literature more accessible to everyone in Hong Kong. With generous support from the AIA Scholarship and other benefactors, our founder Louis has been able to provide free, engaging, and easy-to-understand content (no more langauge gap!) for the people of Hong Kong.

    English literature is not just about resorting to fiction. Rather, fiction reveals the most authentic, the most human. Louis believes the AI era will be the richest time for humanities exploration. If AI takes care of the practical, then our task becomes clear: to build connections, to evoke sympathy, to speak with rhetorical force, and, above all else, to think. These are what make us human; and English literature can furnish us with them. Harold Bloom famously argues that William Shakespeare's works have invented humanity itself. In this short-video age, we must understand ourselves and reject ‘brain rot’. We can still see traces, boiled into daily life, of Shakespeare’s vivid poetics across contemporary articles; AI hasn't yet mastered the humanities. Do you remember reading phrases like ‘disappear into thin air,’ ‘hollow crown,’ ‘ancient grudge’? The writers you have read are very much influenced by Shakespeare. And there is more than just Shakespeare. Over the next decade, we'll crave the unique texture of English literature. The 21st century is seeing a new Renaissance. Immerse in humanities. Here is the place, in Hong Kong.
