Pynchon's best moments

Shakespeare probably for his irreducible polyphony, in the standard Bloom-ian readings of him. Paglia sums it up nicely in various places
Dostoevsky's polyphony, read in the light of Lukacs' theory of the modern novel
Goethe's collected works for "eliminating perspective" through his morphological/proto-phenomenological insights and his higher idea of science and knowlege
Emerson's essays definitely, transcendentalism generally but especially Emerson
Why eliminate perspective if subjectivity is the only thing giving meaning in a meaningless world?
What exactly made you choose THAT picture for this thread ?
>Paglia
Fucking pseud idiot

Tolstoy when he takes you into a room full of people.
>what does this even mean, do you comprehend the op at all?
Do you even understand that a phrase like 'grasps the totality of everything' is utterly absurd?

Its not if you're intelligent enough to understand abstract concepts. Maybe stick to analytic philosophy
>Its not if you're intelligent enough to understand abstract concepts.
Abstraction is purely for the sciences now. Literature is pointless pseudo-intellectualism.
>the totality of everything
woah.. so this is the power of pseud tautologies
Rimbaud
>lit is pointless

Borges ;)
The author of my diary desu
