mcluhan probably belongs on the a-team and chardin's spot isn't that cozy. he inevitably gets bumped down to the c-team once i properly realize how balls-out ridiculous hegel is. there pere pierre he can realize his destiny as being nick land's conscience.

and junger is just too classy.

this place is just too much fun sometimes. w/o 3x3 threads who would i know who i like? or custom book cover threads where i can design my own covers? too good.

there's definitely room for a c-team also. i mean, 18 philosophers in and there's no fucking plato, hegel, kant, or aristotle. that's a little on the silly side. so clearly there is more work to be done here.

>>9816235

i'm presently stuck on a plateau with that one tbvh.

meme philosophyfaggotry is a problem. much sizzle & little steak. the books are *awesome.* but wat do? wat do with books. but maybe this will go somewhere good.

fantasia is indeed *that* fairytale for industrialization (which includes simulation). but baudrillard too talks about *sorcery* - and for *that* reason it's interesting to think how much *aladdin* had going on for it v/the present age. because that is, in a sense, what Capital is - a wish-granting, magical genie.

and, wonderfully, we can see how charmingly unhinged it can be. or how tempting, for unscrupulous viziers, like jafar, who desires *all of the power* and *none of the responsibility* - and pays a price for it.

to go back to continental philosophy & psychoanalysis for a second: maybe the interesting idea here is to ask yourself, how bound are you by the rules of your own game. because IRL no other, no aladdin, is required to let you out. all that is required is to realize, properly speaking, that you already have all the genie powers you need. you can do it all yourself
>in a cave
>by yourself
>for a thousand years

hyperstition says, make a wish and a genie called Lovecraft.net, which knows you better than you know yourself, will grant it. but that's the wrong way to go, isn't it? all the genie desired, at the end of pic rel, was to be free; to not be trapped by the rules of his own game. i is another; but the genie doesn't suck everything else into his own world. that's something jafar would do. the core plot of aladdin is a love story; and it's *cheesy,* but it's not *cynical.* huge, huge, huge difference.

the genie is repressed, in one sense, Oedipus-style; he's in the lamp; but it doesn't make sense to just think of him as an old-school id-fueled monster. because *not everything is in his head* - and all of his schizoid squishiness - have you ever seen a body with fewer organs than a genie? - wants to *be free* and go out there and *play* in the world. much other shitpostings on this subject will here go unshitposted.

now this thought makes a lot of sense. do you know how likely it is that i would have come up with this perfectly alone? absolutely *zero.* i'm just riffing. but it's interesting as fuck. who is the real hero here? you are.

philosophy da bes
it da bes

so start with the greeks ofc. and maybe even end with the greeks too. keep ithaka always in your mind. but i mean, come on, how much fun are the continental islands, right? how much fucking fun are the sirens? how much fucking fun.

i sincerely wish to talk about the *djinn* but i do not want to become a meme, nor do i wish to turn /lit/ into either a blog or a soapbox. so only briefly here.

lacan says quite a lot about the sphinx & in this way can do things undreamed of to one's neurotic or repressed psyche. the sphinx is the perfect image of hysteria: it continually asks a question to which every answer is *wrong* and for which the punishment is *death.* being Lacan, he accomplished a minor miracle and realized what was going on: the sphinx was calling for a master, and knowing this, it could realize itself. and disappear.

well, here's a thing worth thinking about then: what would lacan have made of a *djinn?* a being wish wants to *grant wishes* - which is possessed of an incredible *wish-granting power* - but finds these wishes unworthy, or *cannot properly understand what is being said to it,* or -

right? baudrillard loves to talk about the age of sorcery, deleuze will talk about the body without organs; there is room, i am saying, for a *close and serious analysis of fantastic symbolism in the age of late capital.*

look how unhappy *this* djinn looks. interesting to think about. and from what i understand no small amount of middle-eastern/islamic philosophy of mind has to do with the theory of djinns
>dat genieology of spirit
>ffs ok srsly kys for real this time
>tfw

and their relationship to the unconscious.

i would hate to become a meme, or a hysteric. but i literally find this shit so pants-on-head retarded interesting and *none* of it i would be able to come up with on my own.

we live in a collaborative, profoundly squishy, mimetic world and it is *cool as fuck.*

so i am going to take a self-imposed time out b/c i do not want to sound crazy. but holy shit. holy fucking shitballs, this place, sometimes. the things it makes me want to think about.

Let me explain it: I think that human nature isn't capable of new sincerity and communism, so I think we need more technological process until machines and artificial intelligence can replace us. There is no room for humans in any way, so no transhumanism or any uploading of minds, they will be the vehicle for robot communism and sincerity

We must sacrifice humans to the machines so that they can have the communism and sincerity that humans are not capable of

can't disagree too much. RG is the captain of the a-team and heidegger is the backup. when even your backup team doesn't have plato, aristotle, kant, hegel or augustine on it there's no question that something is unusual here.

but hey, that's what you get for being self-taught. not that i would do this insane journey all over again. if i had gone through the usual channels i would be another uni guy & probably wouldn't drink so much or spend so much time thinking about nick land, steve bannon or vaporwave.

>The romans and chinks are just garbage.
disagree. first of all it's hard to hate on marcus aurelius or epictetus. especially epictetus. but forget about him: taleb shills for seneca all the time and i like antifragility also. who doesn't? antifragility is good.

as for the tao it's cool as balls. the buddhists also. & the stoics are known as the greek buddhists for a reason.

so big infinity loops running west to east and back again. all things connected on planet meme. capital cannot run w/o human affect & that is endlessly fucking interesting to me. true, i tend to wind up falling through space b/c of a lack of formal training, not enough pragmaticism, empiricism, much else. much else.

i'm more or less fine with this.

>>9819354
Antifragility is fine and dandy but I can't take a philosophy which is summarized with "only u can maek urself sad buddy be good guy!" seriously. Stoicism lacks the substance, the meat of the matter as to why live the absurd existence filled with suffering, instead of just mindlessly doing it.

As for the buddhists, any doctrine based on the rejection of the physical world and existence itself is in my opinion a philosophical dead end. Starting with ignoring any ontological questions and problems and satisfying themselves with a cessation of all phenomena, and ending hopeful solipsism.

question: how much of the stoics have you read? about a year ago i heard a very similar sentiment from a guy who I suspected had only encountered the stoics through nietzsche and was channeling nietzsche's perspective. that turned out to be the case.

if you're not big on stoicism that's fine. everybody should read what they're into. but this interpretation is super-uncharitable and as such i can't do more than just kind of shrug.

i was all about the stoics until i read nietzsche. then i thought the stoics were yesterday's news. these days i think differently tho. shit even deleuze likes them:
>become worthy of that which happens to you
that is a stoic maxim. but it is also very, very hard to tell the line between that and nietzschean *amor fati,* no?

so the neetch is a boss. he's a megaboss. but i mean, if life is pain and suffering...

>As for the buddhists, any doctrine based on the rejection of the physical world and existence itself is in my opinion a philosophical dead end.
this sounds like more nietzsche tbqh. and once again, it's not about rejection of the world and existence; it's about suffering and understanding the causes of that suffering. shit i can mightily get behind.

>Starting with ignoring any ontological questions and problems and satisfying themselves with a cessation of all phenomena
come on. the four noble truths are 234% about *not* doing this. as in, exactly, wholly and not partially, *not* doing exactly that. at all.

>and ending hopeful solipsism.
my guy you gotta into charity here. it's not about hopeful solipsism at all. solipsism sucks, i agree. whether it's hopeful or not. but this has not been my experience with the buddhists i have known.

like psychoanalysis, everything is predicated on the notion that *suffering is real.* and as such has to be understood as being far removed from solipsism & pointless language games.

>>9819400

I've read my share of stoics, and I stand by what I said. There is a reason why cynics and early christians ran a train on them. But since you're taking liberty with interpreting my experience I'll do the same. I'll say the only reason why you like them and the buddhists is because you're imprinting your own interpretation onto something that's not there.

Same how begginers imprint shit on the presocratics without understanding the historicity and as such blow their shit out of context and proportion.

As for the buddhist argument, you don't have one. The four noble truths are a way that leads out of samsara. Which is the cycle of birth and rebirth. It literally is an attempt to cease existence and phenomena, trying to put any other spin on buddhism is just mcbuddhisming it.

as a guy who have read ulysses translated to portuguese (a good translation though) and in english, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it translated (though less than in the original) and would much rather read only the translation than not reading it at all. so I would say yes, it is worth it reading translated, even losing some nuances.

Ausfag here. Haven't read him. Seems likely your typical hyper analytic philosopher. Is he any good?

>>9829899
I got Shakespeare, Hobbes, Neitzsche, de Maistre, Spengler, and I want to say that's Evola in the bottom right. I'm not the best with faces. I maybe know a few authors by one exact picture and that's it. Sometimes I'm just completely at a loss and that's why I wish people would also list their 9x9s.

>>9827681
>>9829715
Can I get some rundowns here?

>>9829949
You are correct, Evola is bottom right. Middle is Plato, bottom middle is St Augustine and right middle is Boethius.

>>9829967
Can't say what I think of Boethius in your chart but other than perhaps Shakespeare I'd like to think we have a bit in common.

>>9829972
Boethius is essentially a neoplatonic thinker akin to Augustine.

I'll confess I'm not finished reading him either, but to be an often cited "hyper analytic philosopher" who is a naturalist, he has written very little on language. He has instead worked a lot on "starting analytic metaphysics for real this time", which is what drew me to his Sketch, he also wrote on mind and epistemology.

>>9829950
>>9827681 here, Diogenes and the continentals for the relationships between a person and his sorroundings: people, ideas, state, media, death, hammers, etc. Peirce for semiotics, pragmatics, fixation of belief and general brilliance, Armstrong for naturalist metaphysics (I don't completely ignore Heidegger, BTW) but he also wrote on bodily sensations, Clark has a very particular interdisciplinary approach to mind and body where he is influenced by present-day neuroscience and AI research but also phenomenologists like Merleau-Ponty, or what if I told you the mind isn't a prisoner in the skull and we're natural born cyborgs?

D'Angelo is an aesthetics professor who proposes an aesthetics that isn't the philosophy of beauty, isn't the philosophy of art, and isn't the philosophy of perception, but it is the philosophy of its own thing, it's own subject matter: the aesthetic experience. Here's D'Angelo very short paper in English explaining this: http://www.eurosa.org/volumes/5/DAngeloESA2013.pdf

tl;dr - my philosophy is a philosophy of experience and practice

all in play. i have narrowed the field down to these. will continue to distill further & reduce to a digestible meme/monad.

i read somewhere about a swiss chocolatier who reduced something like 4000 pounds of butter, sugar and chocolate to a candy so small that people were having strokes and heat flashes when they ate it. i wish i could find that reference now, i can't. this is probably an analogy for what i have been doing, complete with object lesson. things cannot be essentialized w/o losing their horizons and this is the lesson which i fail to understand time & again.

so having realized this i am now in a sort of reverse motion away from the meme-candy alchemical sweatshop. & dissipating myself.

i'll say this also: /lit/ is the greatest fucking board anywhere.

unfortunately today is one of the few days i cannot spend all day shitposting as i desire. so happy memeing all & i'll catch up with you guys later. in the interim plz gnaw my ersatz carcass like wolverines.

you know the funny thing about the t-1000? he wasn't really antifragile at all. he kept coming back as the same thing, over and over again. which was how arnold & the connors managed to destroy him in the end.

on the surface, he looked different. but inwardly it was always the same thing. he always came back as the same death-machine on patrol. if he was actually antifragile he would have become something *really* different.

>>9832419
I started reading Bruno and Vico because of the supervisor of a lab I worked on recommended them to me. I also started reading Finnegans Wake around the same time, but I only found out about Beckett's essay much later.
Also, Bruno's plays are amusing, it is a shame people only know him for his non-fiction pieces.

>>9832449
I have never actually read Bruno or Vico, I just noticed your arrangement. What would you recommend as a starting point for Bruno?

>>9832483
You should probably start with De l'infinito, but I don't know if there are any english versions to that. There is a translation for De umbris idearum, that should probably be the best place to start if you can't find De l'infinito. I'm sure that there is also one to Imaginum, signorum et idearum compositione, but it is a really hard read, I don't know if it is a good starting point.
You can read his fiction without getting into his metaphysical ruminations from primary sources. Candelaio is his best play (really funny too) and it should be pretty easy to find. La cena de le ceneri is more of a philosophical dialogue, but it is also amazing, but it is a much denser read.

10/10 This is sublime bait, and I have have lurked since 07, I know my bait.

I love how you drew us in unawares with Derrida and Foucalt, then gave us a hint with Stirner. Then a little more with misspelling Shakespeare but then went with Eco to throw off all but the best trained. After this it ramps up, giving us a little "edgy loner" with "fucking Dante" followed with the pure condescension of "Homer (not Simpson)" an excellent one two punch. Now comes the absolute haymaker, even tossing in a few cheeky misspellings (you rogue!) the final delicious morsel, what truly lifts your post above the rest is "b**shit"

Consider this a salute, fellow shitposter.

Individual books are better than authors.

>>9863307
DFW, Borges, Knausgård, Flannery, Murakami and Dante. Think I've seen the other three faces a few times but I'm at a loss right now.

>>9825147

Why Murakami? Other than him I am on board with you for the most part.

he just resonates with me for whatever reason. it's possible that i'm autistic or something, i don't know. i read the windup bird chronicle on a train in japan and it is a memory that makes me happy. although to be honest he really shines in the short story form, not in his novels.

jazz, cats, cute girls, spaghetti, light magical realism...what's not to love?

>>9863375
That's the conflict. The middle brow versus the comfy feeling. I want to like him no matter how hard I feel I am not supposed to.

>>9863338
Aimee Bender, wew lad.

>>9823857
Who are in the middle?

>>9823857
The middle right is Luxmberg but who are the others in the center?

>>9816682
Bottom right?

>>9816682
Just give us all of them for the sake of being helpful?

whats wrong with her? fruit and words is a great short story. she's a good adapter of the medium of the fairy tale to modern day.

>>9867478
Very middlebrow.

>>9863375
I envy your blissfulness.

>>9863315
Aren't you just a little edge-lord.

>>9869296
it's true that there is a bit of bliss (naivety?) to murakami's work. but there's also something very sad to his writing, and this sadness is part of his appeal to me

>>9871417
The sadness to me can be a bit mellow-dramatic and off-putting at times.

>>9871417
I suppose so.

not cool

What's the point of jerking off to authors? you just want someone to enable your confirmation bias?

Three times. The one in the center is Rimbaud too.

Change Han Shan to Shiwu/Stonehouse.

>>9874465

Sadegh Hedayat, Ferdowsi, Han Shan (but I decided to replace him with Shiwu/Stonehouse), Arthur Machen, and Comte de Lautréamont.

>>9875415
Thanks. What an interesting list. You've given me a lot to look into.
