Post-finding Sohrab is a little weak but it is a good read.

>The Road
A first edition hardcover for a dollar is a good deal on its own

That dinos += lit

Sounds great, user. Shame my local library had nothing good on sale the one time it sold.

Almost finished the book I'm reading, which one should I read next?

>ugly copy of V
>stacking heavy hardbacks on softbacks
Read the bible because God knows you are stupid

Okay

Why?

I got
>meditations
>discourses
>moral letters to lucius
>life of philosophers
>history of rome

That´d be a nice collection of dinosaurs, if it wasn´t for the lack of Pterosaurs

...

>he started with the romans
Deus Vult, my dude!

Triceratop yourself

I've seen that copy of His Dark Materials in a book shop. It's quite a nice version. Good pick, user.

Jesus, this must be a bait.

I see you fell into the "read, just read, read anything, it's good for you" meme.

Reading is a great intellectual exercise as long as you aren't reading full blown propaganda.

...

Bretty based Dino collection tbf

Nice bait
>legos
>dinosaurs

Fucking manchild

Good, especially the baghavad-gita and Dostoyevsky

...

only books I even own and they all were a gift from my dad.

ownership is irrelevant, overestimated. cop urself a library and read some real books please

>classics and dinosaurs
we can be friends but you need to stop putting the cup on top of the books

Read the bible then read enough other books so that when you go back to Mien Kampf you can tell it's a shit book

Read a couple lovecrafts don't bother with the whole book unless he really grips you

8/10 troll. Borderline excellent for this board.

hows tinky winkys book?

>>>/reddit/

>how to read literature like a professor
This has me curious on how useful that book is.

>Every stack thread has turned into /pol/bait and shitposting

At least I have the archives.

If being able to tell good literature from atrociusly bad literature makes me belong to reddit, i'm fine with that.

>How to read literature like a professor
>Milo Oligofrenipoulos
>Trump
How to fill your brain with unfounded ideological garbage and give up critical thinking even before achieving it, the stack.
This is what happens when you haven't red anything appart from sports newspapers in your whole life and you brainlessly buy into the self improvement Veeky Forums humbug.

Your spacing makes you belong to reddit.

milo is redpilled af

Milo is an attention whore that spouts rhetoric you happen to like.

>an attention whore that spouts rhetoric you happen to like.
That's not even an insult. You've just described every single public persona ever.

naah I don't believe that nowadays one can buy original unedited Mein Kampf, they always add or change something

He's also BASED as FUCK

This.

Authors aren't public personas and public personas tend to make shitty authors
Stop being mad that everybody hates your gay ideologue

Get a better camera/10

You know what motherfucker? I've had enough of your funny games.

>public personas tend to make shitty authors
Not true at all. Milo is pretty much just a modern day Goethe.
>Stop being mad that everybody hates your gay ideologue
Honestly, you sound mad yourself. Probably because your favourite sjw was btfo by Milo.

Nah I actually like the upstart pedophile. He's a firebrand, not an intellectual.

Is that Democracy in America? How is it?

Haven't started it yet. I'm trying to read through Emile right now. I'll probably finish Book III today.

What's Emile

>Milo Yiannapolous Book

why

Rousseau's work on education. It has lots of sententious, pithy writing.

I liked The Social Contract so I just wanted to read more of Rousseau. Old Political philosophers are my thing.

>sententious, pithy writing
I just finished Ayn Rand so I've had my fill of that shit for now

>sententious, pithy writing
I just finished Ayn Rand so I've had my fill of that shit for now

Why is The Strange Death of Europe being chilled on Veeky Forums by the same people who shill far-right and sometimes even pro Nazi books? It's written by a gay neocon hardcore Zionist

Never heard of the book, but ideas don't live and die by the people that created them.
Although since the alt-right are too dumb to come to terms with that and view all Jewish writing as a part of a scheme, I guess it is kind of weird

Ayn Rand is not sententious, she is vapid, dull and on the whole absolutely incorrect.

Those don't make her not sententious.
Why does Veeky Forums hate her so much? I mean I see why she's not particularly well regarded but her ideas didn't seem worth throwing out wholesale.
Or is it that her cult of personality is insufferable

>Atlas Shrugged - Modern Classics
>it's real
>wtf is that cover

How about we focus on the fact that Ayn Rand is just wrong. Just wrong, wrong, wrong.

If you were a woman, and you understood this, you would be so much better in my eyes. First of all, the virtuous individual recognizes that God exists, and is pure love. There is no virtue in being selfish. Plato lists what virtues are the essence of Good in Gorgias, and not any one of them is 'selfishness'. There is no progress in being selfish.

You might find some reinforcement for objectivism in the social Darwinists. Maybe she might agree with Ragnar Redbeard's Survival of the Fittest???

Rate but don't hate :)

...

>That Ayn Rand book
Looks like hell, what an uncompelling bitch

>selfishness is not virtuous because Plato and Sky Dad said so
Appeal to authority.
Also adding the bit about your made up waifu is cringy

>Stop being mad that everybody hates your gay ideologue
You don't speak for everyone, you retarded blue-haired cunt.

Wow what a shitstack

>he doesn't like the figurehead I obsess over so he must disagree with him on political levels
I don't disagree with him. he's just an idiot.

I'm just saying 'selfishness' literally is NOT virtuous. It doesn't make sense to consider it so.

Would the Ford edition be good? Honest question. Ive been learning German and thought that maybe i should read the german version. Any answers would be appreciated.

...

One of these things is not like the other

>bijbel
Hallo

Nice Legos.

>>he doesn't like the figurehead I obsess over so he must disagree with him on political levels

it's -6 politics at least

Is Folio Society hardcovers worth going broke?

Absolutely not. Buy Easton books for that.

Newest buys:
>Nihilism Root of the Modern Age-- Fr. Seraphim Rose
>God's Revelation to the Human Heart-- Fr. Rose
>War is a Racket-- Smedley Butler (already read)
>Orthodox Veneration of the Mother of God-- St. John Maximovich
>Myths of the Tet Offensive-- I forgot the author, but it's a Kansas press

Hoi

Reposting from last thread, these are my recent buys. Which one should I read first?

They don’t even make cheap books anymore in the $60-70 range. Everything now is a signed edition that goes for $100 at least. Everything else is a special edition that costs upwards of $300 or more. Keep in mind they use the same materials. They just keep the number of printings low so they can artificially raise the price to levels unheard of. Folio is much more reasonable now.

Got a new stack

Storm of Steel for sure

>Right wing pseud starter pack
>Unabashedly includes fuckboy sunglasses and pair of disgusting flip-flops in image.

Literal cancer.

weird editions/10
but otherwise great

Have you read Randolph Stow before? What would you recommend from him?

I'm also reading some other things for school but that doesn't count.

Nice 'saurs

Unironically kill yourself

Ordered dorian grey too. Pretty new to books tbqh

The only book worth a damn there is 'Atlas Shrugged'. Whatever anyones politics are(yours are quite clear) 'Atlas Shrugged' is one of the best meta-political fictions of the 20th century.

went back later that day and got a couple more good picks

>The handmaid's tale
>1984
>Tronald Dump and Milo
What did he mean by this?
