I see it is Frankfurt book club but do you guys hold online discussions? The charts you posted, I have found quite interesting. I would like to join.

I would recommend trying to start one in your region yourself via the board

Thucydides should be first in order to properly understand Athenian society and politics at the time of Socrates as well as to see where Plato is coming from when making his theories.

I'm pretty sure nearly everything got migrated to the new wiki
https://lit.trainroll.xyz/wiki/Charts

Asked in a previous thread, but I'm searching for a chart I saw once, once had and never again saw anywhere else. It was a Pataphysics chart that had all of Jarry's works along with Alice in wonderland, Rimbaud and some other books. It is not on the wiki, nor even on the archive.org archive that has more charts.
If any of you anons have it please share.

>>25212793
is there a more contemporary version? I want to understand 20th century politics, and I'm sure this list will help, but is there like a shortcut list with political movements more clearly delineated? like communism as communists define it? because I'm sure present day communists don't claim das kapital for being problematic or something. What I want is to cut through obfuscations.

You're reminding me why my Political Science class was so disappointing and why my life is basically over as this fact induced a lack of faith in school:

None of these books showed up in the class. I learned more about why Trump destroyed democracy and Racism is bad, than the political origins of philosophy, and the political development and basis for democracy.

Also learned why non renewable energy sucks and lobbyists suck

>>25214553
>I took one non-political philosophy/theory course and extrapolate from there
The OP is the core canon you'll read more or less throughout intro, upper level, and graduate courses. You clearly didn't get past the wise moron hump

Nice charts from u guys.
But really noone has made charts on "wild wild west" and "journals,diaries and letters of great writers and poets" yet?

Those are just secondary SIG (and I kinda disagree on some like Atlas Shrugged or Way of the Superior Man)
These + others from people like Adler are the actual SIG bare basics

File: intro to the greeks.jpg (1.38 MB, 3672x3024)

I wanna get into the greeks, especially the republic, but I don't know much about ancient greece and lack a lot of historical context. Is Edith Hamilton's mythology really enough? There's so much background understanding I am missing, but I wanna learn the Iliad, odyssey, etc. Could someone please help me?
>>
>>25217691
If you want to read Iliad and Odyssey, just do that. Ancient relegions like the Greek's didn't have the one true version. Homer will say this god did one thing while other ancidnt authors will say the god did the other things.
>Hamilton's mythology
It's good but not necessary for Iliad and Odyssey.
>>
>>25217704

ok anon, but how will I get context for a lot of shit that I am expected to know like the geography of the area, political context, places, people etc? I feel like If I pick up the Iliad or the Peloponnesian war I'm gonna be like "where the fuck was this place? I don't know how this society even works". You feel me?
>>
>>25217712
>You feel me?
No. Just read.

All these books conflict with eachother.
>>
>>25217777
How does Mastery conflict with The Slight Edge?
>>
>>25217793
How does Objectivism not conflict with fucking Eckhart Tolle and Stoicism?
>>
>>25217799
Objectivism (militant atheist) conflicts with Tolle (christcuck), but I don't see how either inherently conflict with stoicism
>>
>>25217400
no thanks, i read russian symbolism and victorian-era poetry instead, all the self-help i need
>>
>>25217831
Wait, I confused Eckhart Tolle with Meister Eckhart, nevermind. Yeah, all that slop is compatible with each other, except the Kybalion which doesn't belong there.

Why? I saw a youtube video about oration and it mentioned something about hermetics.

The Kybalion is an amazing book and shouldn't be be next to self-help slop and Ayn Rand.
