>>12284963
“You must know that there is nothing higher and stronger and more wholesome and good for life in the future than some good memory, especially a memory of childhood, of home. People talk to you a great deal about your education, but some good, sacred memory, preserved from childhood, is perhaps the best education. If a man carries many such memories with him into life, he is safe to the end of his days, and if one has only one good memory left in one's heart, even that may sometime be the means of saving us.”

Os Sertoes is god tier, enjoy

I bought these for myself. I didn't ask for any books because other than these I have nine more unread books.

>>12284986
I never appreciated the importance of memory until I read David Copperfield, which I think was Freud's favorite book. I still can't believe a middle aged man like Dickens could so accurately and thoroughly convey the psyche of the child. Even Proust's monumental explorations of the subject seem fragmentary by comparison.

The only bad part is I actually should probably read Clausewitz before On Grand Strategy

if you're a black womyn raised inside a mass scale victim narrative that lets you larp as a 1960s civil rights hero you're obviously going to play along, but as a whiteboi who ought to know better you make a Freely Willed choice to withdraw from a serious adult life for the sake of IDPOL squabbling and faux-victimhood. and then to have your family buy you all these books, for christmas no less, it just makes me sad anon... for you, for your parents. you're using intellectualism and a vulgar and defeatist intellectualism at that to board yourself off from the world. what does your family think, when they see these titles? what does your mother think as she sees the son she was once so proud of revolting against the modern world, declaring the america she grew up and lived and loved in dead, setting himself against those different from him, not thinking about getting ahead in life, not thinking about meeting a nice girl and settling down but throwing an extended temper tantrum blaming niggers jews and democrats and all these other folks he doesn't even talk to. why won't he come out of his room? where did they go wrong? what more could they have done for him? why is he always suffering?

>>12285064
No but the religious connotations and the divide from the troops and the people are profound. Also I read the War at the End of the World by Llosa and that was great too.

Its a primary source, it reflects the author, and to an extent, the societies beliefs. It also happens to be exciting and well written.

Oh, we do recognize the powers that be are the problem. But you will never get both sides to fight them. One side has to triumph and then deal with the final boss. The only problem is one side would ultimately lead to the stagnation of humanity. And that is the side that is being pushed by TPTB.

Here is what I'm going to buy myself. I forgot to send my Christmas list and didn't get any books:

Invertebrates - Second Edition [Hardcover] by Richard C. Brusca

Grasses: An Identification Guide

Marine Biology: An Ecological Approach

Ecological Census Techniques 2ed: A Handbook


The Permaculture Earthworks Handbook


A guide to the Naididae of north America

Symbiosis: An Introduction to Biological Associations

Signs of Meaning in the Universe (Advances in Semiotics) by Jesper Hoffmeyer

Biodiversity of Fungi: Inventory and Monitoring Methods

I'm mostly focused on field guides and reference books at the moment. I really want some reference books that make good on the coffee table, but they are too exspenive.

>>12285412
Also I'm probably going to buy some books on lichens and non vascular plants as well as more field guides/methods. Also programing in C.

I mean he has a book about white nationalism. He's most likely an american that hates niggers, kikes, mexicans, sandniggers, etc, etc. Maybe he isn't really for ethnic cleansing and maybe he just is friends with a bunch of Nazis but still. America is a large portion non white and mixed, yet OP seems to have wished for exclusively rightwing literature. He's obviously becoming an lapdog. If there was a genuine genocide espousing fascist running for president, OP (judging from the books) would vote for him.
OP needs some foreign friends and travel more.

You should try reading some books that won't just reinforce things you already think

>>12287009
He's an American that has been brainwashed to think that leftism is bad and that it's just a bunch of blue haired gender fluid retards screaming about 'muh oppression'
He doesn't dare to touch left wing literature with a seven feet stick, it might change him into a mentally ill person that wants to cut his dick off. He much rather blame all problems on jews and immigrants.

>>12287009
Or ones that aren’t politically biased or philosophically motivated. The world doesn’t have to be this passionate realm of political/philosophical conflict.

These books are terrible though, most of us are with ya bud

>>12287127
Because it's vague, people can interpret readings of authors that are genuine as politically biased and also vice versa; authors that are biased but get interpreted as being genuine.
For. Fucks. Sake. Indeed, what are you trying to say? Don't read books that deal with politics and philosophy at all? Or only read books that in their introduction chapter say 'I'm not biased or philosophically motivated you guys, actually I'm a nihilist and haven't read any philosophy also the same with politics, I don't know much about it and hold no political beliefs of my own so don't worry about that.

What kind of crap is this? Liberals sat on the left side of the National Assembly. The term "left" was invented referring to radical liberals and Jacobins.

>>12287829
and they became reactionary once in power
once you take out the monarchy they are left on the right.
And if you're using french history you're skipping the process that made them move to the literal right side. That's like saying greeks were the fathers of culture so greece now has to be full of great philosophers.

Liberals keep moving their agenda to controlling international economies and reviving a feudal state with companies as their rulers, they literally put companies above the law.

>>12287716
umm, sorry sweetie. you can be a pussy and still hate jews. plus, you could've found better proof than that.

>>12287840
Liberals don't become reactionary when they take power, a reactionary under a liberal regime wants to overthrow the liberals and go back to the Ancien Regime. When liberals take power they *gasp* try to make things more liberal. The term left referred to liberals and proto-socialists, literally nothing in your post is correct. None of the things you've listed as liberal policies are indicative of reactionary politics.

I got a new desk, clothes, and boxing day money, so I intend to hunt down a Fagles translation of The Iliad and The Odyssey, and maybe a sci-fi book or two.

>>12284720
Read some of them - not Scruton, who I think is a fag. Ride the Tiger is Evola's best work in my opinion. Greg Johnson's book is surprisingly good and adds a lot to the white nationalist discourse, or at least consolidates it. Tucker Carlson seems like someone hip to the current problems and is expressing it in a way palatable to normies. Pat Buchanan is a gentleman and suicide of a superpower was life-changing. If you get the chance, consider we are doomed by John Derbyshire or alien nation by Peter Brimelow, though with book choices like that I assume they will be old news to you.
Great choices man. Merry Christmas.

There isn’t a single book on that pile that is from a different topic/genre. Slavishly devoting yourself to the books you’ve seen talked about on pol is the sign of a credulous fool. Holding a conversation with these one-note ponies is so fucking tedious. There is little to no difference between this person and some jackass who won’t shut up about playing overwatch.

>>12289958
Judging by your self-indulgent condesension, it seems like you've neither read any right-wing literature nor had substantial conversations with right-wingers.

>>12289958
Evola is totally related to Tucker Carlson, you are very intelligent!

>>12289958
You're making a vast, prejudiced assumption about a person based off 10 or so books. As if he couldn't possibly own more and have read other things.

>>12289976
Not him but the way I see it, is that op bought these exclusively for amusement (a guffaw or to make bait threads) which seems unlikely because of the high exspenises, or this is some sort of research project.

>he fought for his beliefs so he's always right about everything
this is the same stupid fucking hero-worship mindset that keeps americans trapped in their endless cycle of shitty politics. You're probably an American yourself.

>>12287795
seems like the poster you reply to has struck a nerve there.

>>12291875
Yeah he seemed to have been triggered and he didn't really have any arguments so I figured I'd just reply the same shit right back. Shut him up good in the end.

>>12285083
Ship of Fools was a pretty great little read. There were many moments where Tucker was giving too much "benefit of the doubt", especially surrounding Bill Kristol/Max Boot but other than that it's not a bad book.

>>12285089
Elaborate. In what way is Tucker a clown?

>>12287124
What's wrong with Buchanan? or is it because he is le evil conservative?

Nice choices. I also got The Book of Disquiet. Will get his poetry if I like TBOD.

Is Carlson's book a good normie-friendly book I could give to vanilla "all immigration is good as long as its legal" conservatives to start them down a path farther right? I guess really the only way to answer my question is to read it myself but I kind of have more pressing things on my list and I want a nice not-too-radical book I can recommend that explains why neocon Bush/McCain/Kristol types are cancer.

>>12292368
Yes, to the point that my biggest criticism of Ship of Fools is that it sacrifices significantly to be more broadly appealing.

>>12292380
What do you mean? Do you think Carlson has a more nuanced worldview than he puts? I've read a few quotes and excerpts from the book posted here and on Twitter and it seemed to touch base with ideas that I didn't think a Fox anchor would dare bring up. One in particular that stood out seemed almost Jared Taylor-esque about how white Americans lack a group identity and that when they start politically acting with a group identity the US as a cohesive entity is over. It just seemed unprecedented to me considering what most books by these types of personalities cover.

>>12292421
Well, the sections that come to mind are the sections about the Middle East involvement, and the sections about the cultural shift away from free speech. He (probably in an effort to not seem conspiratorial) sort of shrugs his shoulders at what have been fairly obvious power grab, and presents it as being incompetence of well intentioned people rather than competence demonstrated by mal-intentioned people.

>>12285061
they're boomer-tier texts for psueds who dont read but shitpost on Twitter about reading

That isn't to say that Tucker's book is bad in any way, I just can tell he knows more than he is letting on. This pulling of punches is probably an intentional move, and may very well be the correct decision to make for the moment, it just rubs me as someone with "Based and redpilled" tattooed on my forehead as a bit gauche.

>>12292445
>>12292461
Good, I'd really prefer to recommend someone like this who's in the know and strategically spreading more and more information. That way if they do agree with him and turn to him as an authority he'll slowly lead them in the correct direction. It's kind of refreshing to see someone doing what he's doing, it's really the only way we'll be able to shift the window of discourse.

>>12292500
Yeah he really is one of the best entertainment figures that the west has seen in quite a long time.

tasteful picture; good post.

The only book I got for Christmas is a collection of interviews with Kurt Vonnegut, which I am most definitely enjoying.

>>12284720
>Geography of Nowhere
Not sure how that fits in with the rest of your pile, but it's a great read if you can ignore the the fact that Kunstler comes across like a whiny cunt.

Jung's illustrations are crazy interesting

>>12292991
That's a pretty shit Cancer Ward over

>>12292991
Peterson is a fag

I found this from a christmas years and years ago that I never read because it looked boring, should I read it?

I got a Library of America collection of Vonnegut's works. What am I in for?

>>12288686
Enjoy. Cormac is awesome. Pretty Horses is one of my favorites.

That's not even neotrad reactionary stuff. It's all memes.

How the fuck do you get family/GF to buy you decent books? All I got is translations from plebtier comtemporary Nordic thrillers 'cuz you like buks'

I got Sapiens and as insulting that is, at least it wasn't 12 Rules. I might ironically read it now that I have it.

>>12285143
Just checked out the two horror novels you mentioned. Seems neat. Going to order them when I'm done with my current stacks. thanks for posting.

where does this meme come from, this assumption that anybody right wing has never truly "exposed" themselves to left wing literature? seems like a generic cope whenever someone doesn't align with your own beliefs
really quite pathetic

Yeah I get that, but I got On War last Christmas and still haven't read it

They were disputing that the books weren't leftist, not that the beliefs were incorrect. Are you illiterate?

Things Fall Apart, American Dialogue, and The Long Loneliness. I'm particularly excited to read based some Dorothy Day

They were disputing that the books weren't leftists based on the fact that this guy fought in a war. Then he tried to discredit me by shaming me for not fighting in that war. It's hero-worshiping bullshit.

>>12285220
Excellent keuze, waarde nederlezer

Do you have a lot of illuminated manuscript books?

Only got one book because I'm trying to actually finish every book I own and further save money by using the library
