Is it immoral to say "check em"? If you get doubles then all the best to you, but it is the duty of another to check them. Or is this too Kantian of me?

Interesting stuff. I just wish I could get a TL;DR because 1905 pages seems a bit excessive.

It's an "experiment in Nihilism"
I just ctrl + f'd for "Nietzsche" and there are something like 285 references.

My Shakespeare professor says to read Shakespeare for the rhythm of the words and the "sonic frequencies" he uses...anyone have a teacher lecture them on Shakespeare like this?
She's unconcerned with characters, plot or meaning, she wants us to appreciate him for the beauty of the language alone

[I've reposted this from /his/
My dear /lit/ezens,
If anyone's interested in reading history books and discussing it in a group of fellow /his/torians, please join us. We're starting with an abridged version of Clausewitz's "On War" published by Oxford's World Classics collection.
The group will be reading 10 pages a day of Clausewitz, but you're free to read more or less than that. Feel free, too, to join the discussion whenever you feel like! All we want is to share ideas, spur interest in history and attain knowledge.
WE HAVE PDF/EPUB COPIES OF ALL THE BOOKS WE ARE VOTING FOR. So no need to go out and buy anything, as they will be freely distributed to you. In fact, here is a link to a free download of the abridged clausewitz:
http://bookzz.org/book/676643/476a3c
If you want to deepen your knowledge or supplement the discussion I recommend looking at the oxford annotated bibliography article dedicated to Clausewitz, as the bookanon does in the recommendation threads.
If you're interested go to sci-hub.cc and copypasta the following code
10.1093/OBO/9780199791279-0026
besides the article on clausewitz, you'll find other works discussing him in this section on strategy, though there will be some overlap in books.

it's only a few less chapters. i don't think it will be a total impediment to interpreting his work. the point is to introduce people to his ideas and his historical importance. i apologize for bumping so early, but i know /lit/ has some people who like discussing books so i thought it'd be worth a shot

This book is probably above your comprehension level my friend. I suggest you find something more "red pilled" that will probably more suited for you (pic related)
You'll never find the right person.

I've seen his works/name in posts here and there around /lit/. He was author whose works have only had a few translations into English. He has always been talked about as pretty influential to German literature though.

Yes.
Thank you so much. I remember looking him up ages ago at the suggestion of /lit/.
I remember the drawing of him with the cows pretty distinctly actually!

Cancer Ward is his best. If you want something shorter just read A Day In The Life Of Ivan Denisovich but it's pretty underwhelming in my opinion.
>Will any of them help me deconvert my commie friends?
Probably not.

Where do I start with modernity? I've read the greeks and most of the romans, just started some medieval theology/philosophy, but now I'd like to read some more modern works. Is it necessary to thoroughly read medieval/renaissance lit before getting into stuff from the age of enlightenment to the last century?
I want to start reading more modern philosophy like Kant, German Idealism, Marx, Darwin; some good novels, I've read Moby Dick which I really enjoyed but that's pretty much it; maybe some history, depending on how well they hold up or if they're really essential like Gibbon. I really want to understand the spirit of the age and it's connection with the periods that preceded it and it's influence today. Thanks

Yeah, no. You're either an idiot or you're baiting (my bet's on baiting). If you really hated modernity you would (or you should) read as much about it as you could get your hands on, then you could actually form your own arguments and not parrot off /pol/.
>>
>Where do I start with modernity ?
It ain't fun, but you start with Descartes. If you get bored, read his letters to princess Elisabeth, it's less tedious than his more famous works (and also it's the last stage of his thought).
Discourse on the method (skip part V) -> best way to enter modernity.
>>
Descartes is fucking boring as hell but might aswell start there. Kant is the basis for everything that came after, getting into him properly will take you at least like a year though.
It's that time again! Post em and rate em, friendos!
