/lit/ - Literature

The top should be filled with /highschool-core/ (To Kill A Mockingbird, The Great Gatsby, Tom Sawyer/Huck Finn, etc) and really popular genre fiction (Twilight, 50 Shades, LOTR, etc)

>>18139713
Also add the bible up there too

>>18139713
Twilight, 50 shades, LOTR and Harry Potter on Top.

Great Gatsby and Tom Sawyer second.

Huck Finn is the father of modern american literature, deserves to be at least in third level. While popular in name, it's not often read fully.

put mystic and neoplatonist shit in the 4th or 5th

>>18139756
True.

>>18139726
very few people actually read the bible outside of cherrypicking a couple verses, and even fewer have anykind of understanding of it

>>18139785
The bible's been butchered up so many times through translations and "edits" that any coherent understand would be lost to time.

>>18139706
7th tier: the learned disguise

>>18139706
'Hegel and the Hermetic Tradition' by Glenn Alexander Magge should be around the 4th or 5th tier

finnegans wake goes at the bottom; ulysses and pincone above it alongside proust and cioran

>>18139706
In 1st place you should put highschool books like the metamorphosis, diary of anne frank, animal farm, harry potter etc
2nd place The oddysey and the illiad, the divine comedy, the aenid etc
Third place I don't know
Fourth place put Maldoror please (I just like it)

>>18139706
Blood Meridian, The Road, NCFOM and The Border Trilogy all go into third tier, Suttree goes into fourth tier, and McCarthy's short stories go into fifth tier

Anything can be art. This post is now art. (Blue)

>>18139923
rec me a mcarthy short story

>>18139706

If the first tier is high school and popular genre stuff then more obscure genre writing, especially sci-fi should probably be third tier.

Marquez should be tier 2 probably, Borges 3 or 4.

>>18139706
The final tier should just be Leopardi

>>18139948
My dick LMAO

Neech, Plato, Aristotle 3rd tier
Heidegger and Deleuze 4th tier
Hegel, Bergson, Plotinus 5th tier
Hermeticists and Mystics 6th tier
Ibn Arabi 7th tier

>>18139948
These dubs

1 tier for each harry potter volume

>>18139726
and then in the bottom desu, it's a horseshoe donchaknow

>>18139948
there's only two of them (published) just go to the McCarthy Society website and look at his "Works" section, idk if you can find them online to read though

>>18139958
KEK
>>18139964
fail

>>18139917
>In 1st place you should put highschool books like the metamorphosis, diary of anne frank, animal farm, harry potter etc
better 2nd tier. Metamorphosis and animal farm deserve better than to be next to harry potter and twilight.

>>18139713
>>18139740
>>18139917
These people are wrong. First level readers nowadays don't even read high school books or even Harry potter. They read How to not give a fuck, that shitty pop history book, and POC crap. If they read Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer that'd be a big step up but also these are just American books

>>18139706
Top: Harry Potter, Twilight, /lit/
Top-1: LOTR, Hitchhiker's Guide
Top-2: Coleridge, Well-known Shakespeare
Top-3: Solzhenitsyn, Lesser-known Shakespeare
Top-4: Gospel of Thomas, Aristotle
Top-5: Plato, Plotinus, Augustine, Buddha
Top-6: The Holy Bible

>>18139986
those books are required reading in most (American) highschools so yes, they belong on the first tier because literary almost everybody who has a highschool education has read them

>>18139986

This guy is right. If we put high school stuff in the first tier we'll run out of books pretty soon.

Tier 1 should be self help and maybe some popular autobiographies (Obamas and such) along with the absolutely most popular genre fiction. Tier 2 should be most common high school required reading and some more obscure genre books. Tier 3 should be writers like Orwell and Kundera.

>>18139997
Doesn't mean they liked them like the title of the chart implies Dumbo. also they don't read them, they read online summaries and fragments

>>18139976
You're right there is a big leap in the quality of the literature but I only put them together because of the popularity. I don't have any idea if OP wanted to make the iceberg about popularity or accessibility
>>18139986
>>18140019
I don't see why we shouldn't put those self help books alongside harry potter and such
And about the space: We should just make the iceberg bigger, it can turn out to be very good.
>Also
I think for the second place you could put some beatnik, authors OP: Bukowski, Keruoac and Hunter S. Thompson
And please put Maldoror on 4th, I like it and want more people to read it

something like this so far?

>>18140060
>no philosophy
Fucking nigger.

>>18139706
Books like On Grammatology, and studies in literary and critical theory should be somewhere at the bottom. Marxism and Literature, studies in Russian Formalism

>>18140060
Add PKD and Kafka to Tier 4

>lol @ Agatha Christie novels
good to know Grandma is still actively posting here

>>18140060
Looks good so far.

Add some obscure, not translated stuff from assyrian or yiddish or some native american language near the bottom.

>>18139706
Descartes/Neeche at the top
Husserl at the bottom.
Fill the middle with German idealists.

>>18140060
Crime and Punishment in the second tier, Brothers Karamazov in the third

>>18139963
this

ibn arabi is demonic

>>18139706
Blowjacks aren’t /lit/

>>18140086
>Husserl at the bottom.
You are like a babby

>>18140073
Should have it’s own iceberg really

>>18139996
yoooooo how do i become the second??

I've heard of the saturn shit but cant find any really esoteric info on it, and what's The Machine??

>>18140073
I mean he has only filled the first tier 2 so far and most people don't start getting into books with philosophy

>>18139917
Aenid should be a tier below the other epics

>>18139706
Gadaffis green book
Sun and Steel
Death in Midsummer
these are the last 3 books i read and idk where they fit into the list desu

>>18140060
Yes, thanks for putting Maldoror anon :3

>>18140106
Read Ibn Arabi (be aware that once you do this returning is not guaranteed and your Self may be annihilated without the assistance of a magi)

>>18139963
Aristotles biological treatises a a tier below the other greek stuff

>>18140060
zettels traum goes in 5th

>>18139706
>>18140060
what is your intent exactly? more difficult, obscure or depressing books as you go deeper?

>>18140060
W&P would fit in well at the third tier then

>>18140119
Good point anon. I'd also add Boehme to 6th tier OP, maybe some Indians as well like Abhinavagupta or Ramanuja.

Knausgard? Feel like he should be tier 4, but considering how popular he was in Norway maybe 3?

>>18140074
I'd say more like tier 5/6 along with Phenomenology and Post-Structuralism generally. The bottom is reserved for really esoteric shit.

>>18139706

>>18139706
7th is:
Voynich manuscript;
Liber Linteus Zagrabiensis;
Rongorongo Petroglyphs;
Harappan script;
Linear A Minoan glyphs of Knossos.

>>18140092
seriously WHY do you call them blowjacks. I have never heard a single person other than you ever say that and I have no idea where you could have possibly heard it from yet you insist on saying "blowjacks" when you know everyone calls them wojaks. What the fuck does blowjack mean?

>>18139706
put sumerian tax records in the original cuneiform in the last tier

>>18140127
seriously? Then was go below that?

>>18140153
>Voynich manuscript
>literal nonsense about plants

>>18140153
and stuff like the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili should go just above those you cited

Works designed to immediately humble you and shatter your worldview should be found lower on the list when the doomer begins to wither. Augustine's Confessions, Imitation of Christ (Kempis), etc... Someone fit in Sertillange's Intellectual Life. Reference books, mathematical indexes, encyclopedias should be found near the bottom to show the descent into infornography. Don't just make it literature, be creative as you move on to other things that can be read. Field guides to protists, etc....

>>18140117
Any particular work?

>>18140171
>Imitation of Christ
oh, that's a good one for the bottom tier. I remember reading it and feeling pure despair for some reason

>>18139967

nietzsche is tier 2

>>18140182
you're making the words too big, you're going to run out of space

>>18139706
the last tier should be kept for reading the future.

>>18140182
absolutely no consistency! You should either put authors or books in this list.

>>18140182
O9A should be more higher. (Almost) All of the stuff is out there, you just have to search for it.
Cioran third or fourth place
Serrano a lil bit higher too because it's very famous in esoteric hitlerism

put the Carthusian Statutes low in there
>>18140176
Yeah it's designed to annihilate pride and shatter the trust you have in yourself and put it to God

This thread was a mistake. Except for >>18140237

>>18140182

Put the Silmarillion down there in 3, where it belongs, or 2 if you want to be a fag.

Ralph Waldo Emerson in 3.

Oswald Spengler and Camille Paglia in 5.

Kierkegaard in 4.

we need to decide if we're putting individual books, or entire authors in the tiers

I vote for books, because authors can have different books on multiple tiers and so just adding authors would be messy; from now on, only recommend individual books, not just authors

Are these charts perennial? In 50 years once everyone has read the deep stuff will the deep stuff then become the tip of the iceberg? And if it does, is it just that they are the relative 'new tip', or do they actually rise up to the real tip of the iceberg. For example, nostalgia becoming a commodity, or schizophrenia being used as a 'style'.

Get richard brautigan's trout fishing in america to the 3rd or 4th level, dos passos's usa trilogy to the 3rd or 4th, alexander theroux's books to the 4th, nightwood by djuna barnes to the 4th.

One of those charts filled with too much meme-shit that it ruins the whole thing. When you have something like this, no one's going to be curious about any of the listings because it's nonsense at face value. You have to start with common factoids, work your way into "Yeah, I think I've heard someone mention that," and then go down into esoteric stuff that very few people know about. The bottom is where you're able to goof off a bit more.

Really isn't. Bible is unironically peak midwittery. I don't need (you's), this is just a reminder to fellow anons that your "God" hates you and permits babies to die and for poopy buttsex to happen, and that you're coping hard by pretending things will get better when you die.

Bottom tier needs to be my diary desu

>>18140060
Wilhelm Wackenroders "Phantasies over Art" bottom tier.

>>18144159
ESL? from the context I was obviously meaning the point of the ridiculous ones, not the entire point of icebergs - honestly I'm fine with ESL on most boards but on /lit/ and /sci/ it should be bannable

>>18140073
philosophy is more an academic subject, the only 4 tiers are going to be something like
>TOP - continentals like sartre, camus, nietzsche (because it's the "fun" philosophy)
>UNDER WATER -classics like plato, descartes, hume, locke, aristotle, kant
>DEEPER -analytics (because you have to be autistic to enjoy most of it)
>BOTTOM - obscure metaphysics from 800 AD to 1600 AD and shit like bergson or whitehead

deepest one should be Churchill's Confederacy alt history fanfic

>>18139740
>Twilight, 50 shades, LOTR and Harry Potter on Top.
If you think LOTR belongs with the others (particularly the first two if you give HP a pass being meant for 8 year olds), you are in fact a midwit.

Why is Tolstoy further down than Dosto? The latter is more unorthodox and harder to read.

>>18139706
why does this iceberg analogy keep cropping up lately?

Not only do they have the ark, they also have the most estoeric compilation of scripture in their biblical cannon, some of which isn't even translated. Pretty sure they include the shepherd of hermas and the book of enoch, it's the largest scripture of any christian denomination.

>>18140414
Of Human Bondage a few mm above the bottom of the second tier.

You underestimate the number of people who use SparkNotes to avoid reading.

>>18139997
>almost everybody who has a highschool education has read them
lmao

>>18148035
Well obviously not niggers. But in America we don't really count those.

>>18147961
Sparknotes and Cliffnotes are actually not bad summaries. They're excellent if you have no background before you actually read the book.

>>18149547
Pretty good, but what's that moonrune one on the bottom supposed to be?
