Question

For example, I cannot credit that the mettlesome poet Byron would have contentedly sat down with Bartleby to examine a law document of, say five hundred pages, closely written in a crimpy hand. What does the reference to the poet Byron suggest in these lines? Bartleby is as creative as an artist. Byron's work has a negative influence on the imagination. Creative personalities are ill suited to tedious work. Hard work is unknown to creative artists.

Answer 1

Answer:

Creative personalities are ill suited to tedious work.

Explanation:

As we know, a poet is an artist who works on the basis of creativity. Generally, creative people and artists are unable to adapt to tedious, limiting and bureaucratic works, because they do not allow their thoughts to flow freely creating beautiful artistic compositions. For this reason, the poet Byron was used as a reference in the text shown in the question above.

The speaker states that the poet Byron would not be satisfied with examining a five hundred page legal document, because it is a tedious job. In other words, the speaker states that creative personalities are not suitable for tedious jobs.
