That blog post is the reason why I found her book. I’ve also read Greek Ways because of that blog. I also liked that book.
I’ve read lots of your blog posts. When I was lurking I would sometimes habitually scroll your list of posts to find interesting things. I’ve also read stuff multiple times.
I have that one too. I started reading that and the The Iliad but stopped for some reason.
I bought it recently. I’ve read your recommended chapters in Conjectures and Refutations. I would’ve read more Popper stuff if already if I didn’t have the mindset that I should comment on things and post them here. I also would’ve read more of your CF articles in my lurking period for the same reason. Eventually I read almost everything by Rand before I joined the forum though.
I think it’s still holding me back that I think I have to do heavy analysis the first time I read important philosophy stuff. Perhaps I should just read things one time without doing analysis if I feel like it.
A long term project of mine is to read high level stuff of every major culture in history. I’m particularly interesting in knowing the ideas of cultures so I would read stuff like One Thousand and One Arabian Nights.
Do you have good world history books recommendations? Peikoff’s recommendations are hard to get and expensive. I’ll read the W.W. Norton publication, Western Civilizations at least. I would like some rest of the world stuff too.
