/lit/ - Literature

>>11093532
I'm very interested in this project as well. Here are a smattering of my list in a vague order in how to read them -- try to stay to this order.

The poems can be read in more or less any order whenever you want.

Books, or Aphorisms:
The Old Man and the Sea, Hemmingway
Enchiridion, Epictetus
'On reading and books', Schopenhauer (not /fitlit/ necessarily, but a very good work for anyone who reads).
Meditations, Aurelius
The Iliad, Homer
Discourses, Epictetus
Macbeth, Shakespeare
Bhavagad Gita
The Republic, Plato
Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Nietzsche
Sun and Steel, Mishima
Ethics, Spinoza
Being and Time, Heidegger

Poems:
Preparedness, Markham
Comrades, Hovey
Invictus, Henely
If, Kipling
Self-Pity, D. H. Lawrence
The Oak, Tennsyon
The Charge of the Light Brigade, Tennyson
Law of the Yukon, Service
The Men that Don't Fit In, Service
Rhyme of the Restless Ones, Service
Casabianca, Felicia Hemans
Character of a Happy Life, Wotton

Some Holderlin, Schiller, or Goethe could probably help you along.

This list is fairly good; I would recommend almost all of them.

And an emphasis on Mishima's Sun and Steel; I would say its an 'intermediate' book if you're new to philosophy.etc, but it's a good place to start /fitlit/ if you have a philosophy background.

I'm interested; I'll add it to the list.

This guy actually knows his stuff. Listen to him.

Great God in boots! The ontological argument is sound.

That's a pretty neat trick, doing pull ups and typing with your feet at the same time? You sir deserve an award.
