requesting the /out/ chart from last time

What are some good Charts for a guy looking to get into anthropology and international relations?

>>15779956
How can a suicide chart not exist yet?

>>15781260 Look in the archive or in the mega.
>>15781263 Look at the available ones.
>>15781590 It does though and is available.

>>15781868
Available where?

>>15779956
In what order should I read these books?

>>15781868
>Look at the available ones.
I don't see any charts for Anthropology. A lot of history charts though.

>>15781868
Mega link? Didn't even know there was one.

>>15779956
What is this chart about?

>>15782419
Just some random patrician books maybe?

>>15782419
Neoabsolutism.

Is this one good? I have almost finished "How To Read a Book", should I go on with the rest? I have heard controversial things about The Trivium.

>>15779956

>>15781590
go ahead and made one
here's some essential philosophical suicide-core books

On the Suffering of the World by Arthur Schopenhauer
The Conspiracy Against the Human Race by Thomas Ligotti
The Philosophy of Redemption by Philip Mäinlander
The Last Messiah by Peter Wessel Zapffe
Persuasion and Rhetoric by Carlo Michelstaedter
On the Heights of Despair by Emil Cioran
The Denial of Death by Ernest Becker
Better Never to Have Been by David Benatar

>>15782868
That looks more like a pessimist or doomer list desu. I was thinking more of books by writers who committed suicide, or books where suicide is an important theme or event.

>>15782891
>The Philosophy of Redemption by Philip Mäinlander
>Persuasion and Rhetoric by Carlo Michelstaedter
Both of these philosophers committed suicide

But The Conspiracy Against the Human Race is straight forward and brutal. It's the essence of pessimist thought. Ligotti did a great job on collecting almost every single main idea of philosophical pessimism. And It's pro-suicide.

>>15782944
Yeah that book seems to be essential reading, it's definitely in my to-read list. The other ones you've mentioned too, btw.

>>15779956
OP, tell me about this chart.

>>15782944
>And It's pro-suicide.
It isn't. He openly scorns people, who urge pessimists to commit suicide. Ligotti was a massive pussy.

>>15781260

>>15781260
Or this one?

>>15779956
those look interesting OP. I actually read some of Fustel de Coulange and it was great.

>>15783007
>It isn't. He openly scorns people, who urge pessimists to commit suicide.
Because it's contradiction on the behalf of pro-life people.
In that book he argued in the favor of Euthanasia. Yes he is a pussy I do admit that. But I don't blame him the psychological terror of death is fucking horrible that's why most people lack the balls to end it.

>>15783031
>>15783047
thx

>>15779956
Any on oriental philosophy? None of the guenon shit, just basic bitch tier Lao Tzu and chinese classics.

>>15783089
really?
this chart is incomplete without philosophical pessimism

>>15783197

>>15783206

>>15783214

>>15782419
Post-liberalism, generative anthropology, neoabsolutism

>>15783074
>the psychological terror of death is fucking horrible
No such thing if you take your own life voluntarily, not out of fear or despair, or any other emotion, but because you firmly stand by your beliefs. Like Mainländer. But Ligotti was a massive fag. All those words, only to spill few sentences how he "has no reason for suicide", and "people who suggest suicide are dumb".

>>15782797
Thanks, was looking for something horror related

>>15782861
Haven't seen this before, nice

>>15779956
There's a copy of The Ancient City online. I just read the introduction and I'm very excited. Thank you, OP.

>>15783031
Saw an anon made this. Def saved.

>>15783331
>generative anthropology

>>15779956
Some chart on books about sex and sexuality please? No erotica.

>>15779956
Please, stop shilling this.

>>15785026
>Please, stop shilling this.
no

>>15785026

>>15782784
is how to read a book a meme?
or is it actually worth reading?

>>15784177
If you like that read Inventing the Individual next, he uses the Ancient City as a starting point

>>15779956
there’s no fideist/pragmatist chart

>>15782017
Don't, they're worthless. Don't believe me? Check the (nonexistant) bibliographies.

>>15785915
How to read a book

Step 1: Learn to read
Step 2: Read

>>15785836
All the charts are listed on the /lit/ wiki you fucking retard.

>>15786180
This. They've been shilled heavily by some discord trannies for a while now.

>>15783089
>Deleuze
Anyone who reads those garbage texts of his with an open mind is likely to be struck by the same phenomena that initially surprised me: the low level of philosophical argumentation, the deliberate obscurantism of the prose, the wildly exaggerated claims, and the constant striving to give the appearance of profundity, by making claims that seem paradoxical, but under analysis often turn out to be silly or trivial.

>>15786180
>I REQUIRE A SOURCE

>>15786316
>WHY YES, HERE'S A 500 PAGE BOOK ALLEGING TO DETAIL THE ORIGINS OF WESTERN LIBERALISM
>SOURCES? FUCK YOU KEK BOY, EVERYTHING I NEED TO KNOW IS ALREADY IN MY HEAD BECAUSE I HAVE ACCESS TO PLATO'S THIRD REALM
>LOL JUST BELIEVE ME HAHA STUPID ZOOMER

>>15783031
I said this last time but Typee by Melville should be number one here.

>>15785915
It is legit, anon. Just download it and see it yourself. Dunno why people bother asking if something is a meme instead of asking for download links.

>>15782784
The ABCs of How We Learn, the name sounds like some bad meme and the cover art seems like it is going to be some other meme book. But don't judge a book by its name or cover.

any on theoretical linguistics or semiotics

>>15782784
The Trivium is okish, anon. But more about to get to know things. It is pretty cool, I got too excited when I read it. Those are old things and you are probably better using something more modern and based on research.

>>15782784
It is an ok book, anon. I would read more to get to know how things were "back in the day" than anything else though. I found it relatively exciting desu. But there are better books.

>>15782891
Heinrich von Kleist commited suicide, and his books are filled to the brim with violence, but I dont think anything about suicide. Didnt read all his works as of yet though.

>>15786347
I just opened that Siedentop book on the Origins of Western Liberalism and it has 26 pages of bibliography for a 360 page book.
What are you on about?

>>15783343
>No such thing if you take your own life voluntarily, not out of fear or despair, or any other emotion, but because you firmly stand by your beliefs. Like Mainländer
If you think that every pessimist hold same belief as mainlander then you're genuinely retarded. Every single person on this planet fear death.

>>15785915
It's good. You get the idea how to read analytically and understand deeply what you read. He gives you a set of rules with a whole bunch of examples. He talks about different types of books and how to get the most out of them. There is also a lot of ramblings about the failure that is American education, and how liberal arts are important but neglected.

>>15783089
Isn't Nick Land literal schizo word salad ramblings he made when he was on amphetamines? One of his chapters is literally just fucking meaningless symbol and number spam
