good call with Rousseau. I'm actually re-reading that right now. Next will be a Locke or Hobbes re-read because I'm developing an autistic obsession with the topic.

>>9199178
How is it different than Leviathan? It probably supports democracy, rather than monarchy, right?

>>9199180
Yeah, and grounding this idea on the (more or less) modern definition of mankind as freedom. Therefore there can be no other legitimate state than a Republic. Whether you're a citizen of a Republic, or you're a beast or a slave.

>needing a reason to dislike Ayn Rand besides the book itself
No

>>9200230
It's not like a story of a man having a disappointing marriage/job/life told in mediocre prose is hard to come by or anything. It's fine but not really an engaging read or even an emotional one

Strategy and Power in Russia 1600-1913 - Fuller
Russia and the Russians - Hosking
Romanovs - Montefiore

>>9200490
A fellow Russian History class student atm eh?

>>9200493
Yes sir.

You read any of those texts?

>>9200068
His political philosophy and epistemology are interesting and may have even swayed me towards his views but I like philosophy for metaphysics and Aristotle wrestles with more of those kinds of problems.

How is it? The most recent work I ever read recently was Nathaniel Miller's book on formalizing Euclidean geometry.

I can't even remember the last time I read a modern fictional work. "Home" maybe...?
