I read that. I enjoyed it. Maybe go to existentialism.

It's a legitimately good guide.

Read his Problems of Philosophy and the list in the Biographical Note:

If you want physical copies, get the ones published by Hackett.

I am about to start the Iliad once it arrives from Amazon. Seems like a good guide I've already learned a lot.

End your life desu, you ruined your brain and will never be able to understand filosofia now

Noice. Illiad is harder to get through than the Odyssey btw, but still good.

You should stop reading it and read something else. He shits on philosophers that he didn't read long enough to understand beyond the surface of their work. His comments about Aquinas, ironic as they are, demonstrate as much.

same goes for just about anything from the continental side.

he violently misinterpreted nietzche.

>Russell
Lmao nigga

>>8835624
Just anything. Russell was meant to be an expert on Locke and clearly hadn't read Locke.

What a time to have been alive eh? Getting to be an Oxford Don for being overly analytical about language and a Lord or Baron or whatever the fuck he was.

put it down and purchase an anthology of philosophy instead. In addition purchase: As much Plato as possible, Descartes' meditations, and the Frege Reader. This way you'll have the anthology as a large reference for most philosophical questions, and the three progenitors for each respective era of philosophy (this isn't necessarily wholly true but you catch the drift). The thing about philosophy is that reading it half assed is just a waste of time as you won't understand anything worth half a damn. I suggest purchasing commentaries too but you can wait on that for now.
