Let's start a new /lit/ chart thread.

Bonus point for: new topics and homemade charts.

I will start with the Post-Apocalyptic genre.

Thanks. I didn't know H. P. Lovecraft had done a collab. And it's pretty good too. Lovecraftian in its morale without resorting to non-euclidian monsters.

I like it.

I've wanted to do one for the High Rmance for a while, but I don't really have the software capable. If anyone wanted to put this up it would be real nice of them

History of the Kings of Britain->Arthurian Romances (Chretian De Troyes)--{arrow splits in two}
First arrow-->Le Morte D'Arthur->Idylls of the King
Second arrow-->Orlando Furioso->Faerie Queene

With a separate box with Don Quixote as the end-all.

Also if anyone has any other suggestions, feel free to add them in.

He did a bunch of ghostwriting where he basically wrote/rewrote a story for others based on a rough idea/outline/draft. I think that was the source of most of his income. They're basically Lovecraft originals but never show up in collections because of their sketchy origins. They're specifically collected in The Horror in the Museum and Others, if you're interested.

What tools and techniques do people use to make charts? I've been meaning to make charts for a while but I would have no idea how to make something as simple and aesthetic as the best charts I see here.

>> No.9714322

I'm in the middle of drafting a big Retard's Guide to Sci-Fi.
Probably nothing will come of it since I don't have any knowledge of photoshop or anything to make a nice chart, right now its just a cluttered MSPaint abomination.
But basically, it "starts" at Frankenstein (I'll have some earlier works too) and divides into Science Fiction (or Speculative Fiction) and Science Fantasy.

>> No.9714329

I look forward to it. Make sure to post it in /sffg/.

Fucker, just throw some pictures, lines and text together on paint.

>> No.9714342

>>9714329
Yeah I'll probably clean it up in Paint and then post it, maybe someone will clean it up.
I'm having some trouble with the Science Fantasy half though, since I'm not particularly knowledgeable in the development of that side of the genre. I think right now I have Lovecraft, Burroughs and Herbert (Dune's split right down the middle of Speculative and Fantasy) and not much else. Will need to do some more research and reading to fill it in, especially when I get to contemporaries.

Only when the material is dense as fuck and worthwhile to read. Maybe Houellebecq's books or The Bell Curve is a better approach. You can keep Ayn Rand if you want, since she's not nearly as bad as people make her out to be, but it'll impact the credibility of your chart unless every other choice is solid. I think Maps of Meaning isn't a bad choice but it's not "redpilling". Manufacturing Consent by Chomsky is unironically a far better choice because you'll learn how the media controls the population (about the best and only good book penned by Chomsky). Propaganda by Edward Bernays is a good idea too, maybe Death of the West by Pat Buchanan (for the lack of a better choice).

What do you think the redpill is? Redpilling is becoming hyperaware of corporate globalism as an ideology and how democracies are perverted into oligarchies in the modern day and age. Everything else, including the antisemitism, nationalism, racism, etc., is just extra flavoring that doesn't really change anything except make the concept less palatable to newcomers. It might be true, but it's unnecessary fluff that turns off people's brains. You should think over what you mean by redpilling and what your goals are for redpilling if you're serious with this chart.

That list (OP's not yours) is essentially the Alt-Lite's e-celeb publications. Ayn Rand, Hayek, and Sommers to a point are the only ones on there worth reading imo.

There are tons of better right wing charts like this one.
