/lit/ - Literature

I'm a schizo renaissance man. I work out, read, listen to music, I am currently reading dragonlance, a biography of Churchill, a history of the world, the book of exodus.

Also, I read the Red Book as an experimental text, in the sense that I use it's lessons in my own journaling.

When I'm not doing those above, I am going to restaurants and driving down country roads with my retired Dad.

I'm the most intelligent schizo I have ever met. Most of my kind are pure unadulterated morons. The meds make me less intelligent, they dull the wit. But I am still 119 in online IQ tests. I used to be 145 in a real in person test.

I will get hate for this post, but I don't care, I feel like I am a high functioning one of a kind, and I encourage others of my diagnosis to read more.

If you've just read Nietzsche I'd recommend Weaver and MacIntyre
>Richard Weaver - Ideas Have Consequences
>Alasdair MacIntyre - After Virtue
Everything Alasdair MacIntyre has ever written is amazing even though he, correctly, rejects basically all political labels
Both After Virtue and A Short History of Ethics are good starting places but After Virtue is far better
Edward Feser is great too - read his Scholastic Metaphysics or The Last Supersititon
For Roger Scruton who I can see quite a few mentions of in the thread is great - read his Soul of the World.
However, above all I'd also recommend just reading the Greeks and Medievals >>16720263
however that cross-thread is missing Pythagoras and Euclid
Other recs;
>Rene Girard - Violence and the Sacred
>Patrick Buchanan - Death of the West
>Oswald Spengler - Prussianism and Socialism // Decline of the West
>Julius Evola - Men Among the Ruins
>Guillame Faye - Archeofuturism
>Charles Taylor - A Secular Age
>Konstantin P. Pobedonostsev - Reflections of a Russian Statesman
>Ernst Junger - Storm of Steel
>Carl Schmitt - Political Theology
>Carl Schmitt - The Concept of the Political
>Niztan & Bichler - Capital as Power (useful BTFO of Marxism and Neoclassical econ but its written by cosmopolitan academics so you can safely ignore their view of theological history)
>Phillip Blond - Red Tory
>Cardinal Sarah - The Day is Now Far Spent

Land will be incomprehensible without a background in continental philosophy

So

I'm near the end of the whole WHOLE damn bakker fun show. 7 God damn thick big dick books of rape dog-orcs, sad old men, whores and a dude playing 4D chess while everyone else is stuck playing checkers.

What did I think about it all? Was it worth it at the end of the day?
