Il barone Evola ti avrebbe ucciso personalmente, lurido frocio

>>16270425
Ride the Tiger is a good book, but his takes on Nietzsche are bad and his takes on art are beyond fucking retarded
Still like Evola overall

>aristocrats of the soul

I have now uploaded 6 out of 8 parts of my read-through of "Ride the Tiger" on my youtube channel... I can post the links if anyone wants to give it a listen.

Post a picture of yourself and your room. It’s our turn to pass judgement

Reading
>Society of the Spectacle
It's kinda shit ngl

Drinking
>some zoomer-tier chup-a-chups brand soda
It's not bad, but sweetness gets less pleasant the older you get

Playing
>I don't have a handheld, but CKIII on PC
A rather mediocre game, but promising in design. Will be great after DLC and patches.

Evola isn’t a fascist

Based book, and even more based choice of drink

>>16270674
Voice is comfy, diction is good. Mic and overall quality could be better. Iron Pill is pretty oldfag by current standards.

Overall seems pretty solid, ngl.

Not sure I really understand everything that's going on but I'm enjoying it

>>16270425
I like those drinks, but they stopped selling them nearby...

>>16270444

>that book
I mean, it really should be "Presentation", not "Representation", but still, otherwise based translation.

>Last one was successful.
Dear lord, help us

I feel particularly based today

>>16272142
Why? He's using "Vorstellung" and he's writing from the Kantian tradition. You can argue that *for Schoppy a Kantian representation is actually a presentation* but the word Vorstellung is still Representation.

Literally just finished the first lecture.

>>16272207
>In the introduction to his translation with David Carus (first published 2008), philosopher Richard Aquila argues that the reader will not grasp the details of the philosophy of Schopenhauer properly without rendering Vorstelling as "presentation." It is the notion of a performance or theatrical presentation – of which one is the spectator – that is key in this interpretation. The world that we perceive can be understood as a "presentation" of objects in the theatre of our own mind.[8] Vorstellung can refer to what is presented or to the process of presenting it. Schopenhauer argues that what does the "presenting" – what sets the world as 'presentation' before one – is the cognizant subject itself. The primary sense of Vorstellung used by Schopenhauer, Aquila writes, is that of what is presented to a subject: the presented object (qua presented, as opposed to what it is "in itself"). Aquila argues that translating Vorstellung as 'representation' fails to "bring out the dual notion of that which is 'set before' a cognizant subject as its object, and the presentational activity of the subject therein engaged"[9] and is potentially misleading from Schopenhauer's principal point.

goose is he who decides on the exception

>>16272684
The word is inherited from Kant, every philosopher from Kant has used it in his sense (the transcendental sense) with or without there being an object-in-itself being represented. Fichte, Fries, Schelling, Hegel, etc, all use the same Vorstellung as Kant.

This idea of changing the word because it would "help the reader grasp the details" is retarded. For one in the preface Schoppy says you must have read Kant before reading his work- the entire edifice of transcendental philosophy would be known to the reader, and for two, he makes it clear how his usage of representation differs from Kant's within the text. Why attempt to rescue a reader who can't understand him in the first place?

It's a text in the Kantian tradition and uses the same terminology as Kant. Using "Representation" makes it flow from Kant to Schopenhauer seemlessly. I would say changing it to "presentation" would do more to confuse the reader as they may think Schoppy is introducing here an entirely different concept, but he is not, he's enhancing and expounding the same.

Dragon Quest V is a more enthralling and wholesome tale with more nuanced themes than any Final Faggot game.
