I'm sorry but I cannot respect this. It would be one thing if you all you did was prioritized looks over function and grouped together your books based on spine look instead of author. But to actually go out and buy an expensive copy of a book you already have just to "complete" the look? The shelf looks great aesthetically so credit for that but you can go fuck yourself.

This is why shelves/bookcases in France will always look nicer to me, because most essays, novels, etc are standardised to the "livre de poche" format, and also are all white and sober, just fancier overall and also leaves a lot more mystery around books as big descriptions/blurbs aren't frequent at the back. Books in Anglo Saxon countries tend to be too colourful, too showy and would even make the best classic novels or philosophy essays look like the appalling contemporary chick lit you get in loads of bookshops. Unity on shelves is not only aesthetically satisfying but also helpful in terms of organisation.

The black one (top) is more typical of a Bible—it is structures by verse and chapter—this is the one I use when reading particular segments, and the one that I take to church.
The other one (bottom) is structures like literature and is designed to be read that way—prose is structured like prose, poetry like poetry; there are no double columns or verses getting in the way. It also has Apocrypha and a modified order, as well as omission of some repetitive or "unimportant" parts.

Yes, but, from my experience, anywhere is a good place to start with Saramago.
His main problem is that you get tired of his style after some books. His plots aren't repetitive by any means, but his verbosity starts to annoy you after you've seen it too much.
I read 6 of his books and they were all pretty good, but I have no intention of reading a 7th before 2030.

Batman gets a pass in my books.
The aspects of him being a human fighting against evil, corruption, and non-human beings are great.
Stories of humans fighting for what they believe and overcoming things like gods and monsters are sweet.
Like David and Goliath or the story of that man that travels to hell to retrieve his wife.
I don't own /co/shit myself, but I can't diss Bats.

Scrolling through this threads i always feel the absence of the actual joy of reading.
everyone is a tryhard, they all read the same fucking books, the greeks, nietzsche, hegel, some edgy shit like berserk or simply plain old classics like LOTR
They go to amazon an buy brand new editions, sometimes the full catalogue of his favorite publisher, so he can have dante beside joyce
the same goes for writing threads, every fag there wants to write a knockoff odyssey, why the fuck do you write and read if it feels like a chore to you?
its like the package its more important than the content

>What's that about? Driving or performance?

Both. It's mainly tips on how to drive in a faster and safer manner without killing yourself like a retarded cunt. It is a pretty useful little guidebook even if you don't own a Porsche. I often lend it to friends and new driver types so that they can stop driving like a Chinese guy in a liveleak video.

I'm impressed. I'm a sort of lapsed Calvinist and I want to get more knowledgeable about the origin of Christianity and in what aspects it differs from Judaism and other pre-christian religions. Can you recommend me any works? Ferguson's book seems interesting.

[Anonymous No.18825791]

>>18825774
Ferguson's book is a fantastic place to start for that. The way it outlined the existing religious customs of Hellenic societies was eye opening for me.
