High Brow vs. Low Brow

I am really looking forward to this class and am excited to explore the dynamic of high-brow and low-brow further. My perception of high-brow literature is that it is less popular throughout the masses, but intensely popular in certain groups. Those who understand this dense, complicated form of literature become enthralled by its trappings and meanings, making it very popular in its own right. Low-brow, on the other hand, is deemed popular by large quantities of people, or possesses the conventional definition of popularity. Although low-brow literature may seem less important to some, it is undeniable that a book with the approval of millions must hold some merit. On the same bent, high-brow literature can't be overlooked because of its lack of general approval. Perhaps, some may say, the "quality" of readers outplays the "quantity". This is merely speculation, and I am not one to judge any type of reader, so please no one take this personally.
