How do you guys feel about starting a "forbidden /lit/" book club? every week or 2, we'll pick a piece of literature that has been banned or heavily censored in at least 1 major country and we'll discuss the lit and the circumstances of its banning or censorship

if yes, post so the thread stays alive please. I'm willing to start on sunday or monday

Books about sexual degeneracy are just that: Books about sexual degenercy.
They will not inspire something that challanges the system nor are they critical of the current status quo.
As kaczynski said: They are challanging the system "Liberal Democracy" from WITHIN. Meaning they are accusing the current system of not holding to its principles of liberalism.
Works that challange the system from the outside are dangerous, since they often call for the abolishment of the current system while works about sexual degeneracy in a system that promotes or tolerates sexual degeneracy anyway only wish for the system to become even more system like.

Just so everyone knows, the American Library Association 'Challenged Book' list this refers to is a total scam. Whenever some local school board anywhere in the US doesn't like a book and has it pulled or attempts to have it pulled from classrooms or from being in the school library for whatever reasons, that's how they make the list, which is why they're careful to call it 'challenged' and not censored. The ALA is a big influence on curriculum and summer reading lists for kids, it's a huge vehicle for exposing kids to liberal propaganda about refugees and sexual abuse etc. They're also a big proponent of the Drag Queen Story Hour stuff. Needless to say, highly Jewish organization.

Hello. You're probably referring to the Bucharest Pogrom which was neither sanctioned by Legionary leadership at that time nor can it be connected to its well-known founding members, who were all dead by then. There is a specific reason why Codreanu's movement produced one of the greatest elders and saints of the 20th century who are venerated to this very day. After Corneliu died his movement got perverted by his "successor" Horia Sima which is known as a natsoc larper that committed those acts of crime. Remember, it was a spiritual movement that wanted to end corruption, economic exploitation, and communist agitation and not the mass-murdering of the jews.

Yes, it is this one. I am not quite sure what reccs means since I am not that well acquainted with internet slang but I think you should check Corneliu's manual called "The Nest Leader's Manual" which serves a good introduction on how a Legionary should behave, how they are disciplined and how they organized the movement. You can also read this short essay called "Work Camps, Commerce, and the Education of the 'New Man' in the Romanian Legionary Movement" by Rebecca Haynes if you want to know their struggles and their objective of creating a "New Man", an anti-thesis of the materialistic democratic politician which replaces them with elites that know what is hard work, discipline, pure in body and soul that had graduated from the legionary work camps.

As for the best Romanian books I recommend Enigma Otiliei by George Calinescu, Forest of the Hanged by Liviu Rebreanu, Baltagul by Mihail Sadoveanu and Poor Dionis by Mihai Eminescu.

I'm not who you are responding to but if you want to read more about the spirituality that the legion produced, and the saints which came out of it, I would recommend literally any book by Fr. Dumitru Staniloae (soon to be glorified), Shepherd of Souls: The Life and Teachings of Elder Cleopa (also soon to be glorified), Eternity in the Moment: The Life and Wisdom of Elder Arsenie Papacioc, Father George Calciu: Interviews, Talks, and Homilies as well as The Saint of the Prisons which was mentioned earlier. All these Elders largely gave up on politics but all of them agree that the Legion was an essential part of their lives which gave them an education in the Christian life which allowed them to survive the horrors of Communist prisons.

There was a 2018 edition though, and I bought mine in 2017, well after it was already commonly recommended on /pol/. I wonder when the "Steve Bannon's favorite book" campaign took off, that would've had much more of an effect. Even then, you think they'd print more copies in that case.

I've recently come across the tools necessary to print my own books. I haven't had the time to typeset and such so I haven't printed anything yet but how feasible do you guys think it would be for me to print out these books and sell them to people online? I don't have the rights to any of this stuff so it would all have to be anonymous and for that reason alone, I doubt many would be willing to trust me but I think it's a real shame that they can just do this to books.
Also, how expensive is it to get say, a 200 page book translated into English? If you guys think I can get a reasonably good quality translation for under $10k, I might be able to do more than just republish works illegally.

There's multiple publishers on the right that have sprung up and are doing this as well, the most recent being Antelope Hill. There's also Mystery Grove, Rouge Scholar, and Imperium Press. Maybe reach out to Antelope Hill if you want to help/want advice. I'd stay away from printing books I didn't have the rights too, I don't know how common it is to be prosecuted for something like that.

What books were you thinking about publishing? Anything printed before 1963 in the US that never had it's copyright renewed is in the public domain. But for foreign books like Camp of The Saints a translation is considered an original work so you could have one commissioned and republish it that way. 10K is more than enough for 200 pages but you'll want to hire someone you trust who has an interest in the book they're translating.

I'm a physicist so largely just a certain set of academic works which deserve more popularity than their high price allows.
I am sure that does not appeal much to the people here but regarding literary works, I'm not sure. I am interested primarily in obscure texts of literary and academic value that for whatever reason, are kept out of the public eye.
I have access to one of the largest University libraries in the US so getting un-scanned texts and hiring typesetters to create clean digital and physical copies is something I would like to do.
I am also looking at publishing my own translations of academic texts, Japanese philosophy, bilingual references, and so on.
