You could always try listening to her and being a thoughtful person. That usually works better than soliciting advice from strangers on the internet.

>an author has one or a few of his books published by a different company than the majority

Why the fuck do people do this? I want a nice clean collection of the author's total works that looks the same and appeals to my autism instead of some garish cluster fuck

I was looking into buying something as a nice reference guide in my English studies. Many people recommended me the Penguin Dictionary of Lit Terms and Lit Theory 4th Edition as a solid book, but there is a fifth edition out.

Does anyone own one or both books? Which would you recommend purchasing?

Fifth you idiot, what, you think theyre going to take a term out or something?
>>
>>9057423
I heard from some with both that the fourth is more comprehensive, and that the fifth really only expands upon multicultural theory and doesn't do anything better.
>>
>>9057444
Well, maybe they're right. Anyways, I've gotta go see a man about a dog.

So by extension, are we to understand that members of the elite in Galt's Gulch should not be generous to other members in that same group?

Honestly it feels pretty good tonight. I've become completely spooked by ideology and paranoia.

>>9057289
Come on. You know that's not what any neuroscientist would tell you. I actually posted this because, if anything, I think sometimes in the age of ideology our hopes and dreams matter too much - and, what's more, our hopes and dreams are not necessarily our own.

That last sentence might not make sense, but I've basically drunk the Zizek koolaid in a big way and I am convinced that all desire is the desire of the other. But even before desire? Still the brain.

Just kind of a nice thought.
