As a new member, I hope I can contribute to the forum while learning as much as I realistically can. I have several questions, and I hope that everyone will not get tired of me too quickly. Everyone have a nice evening. -John Edited December 19, 2007 by Montrevux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrevux Posted December 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 (edited) Welcome to the forum. What have you read of Ayn Rand's so far? I've read the fiction novella Anthem, and the non-fiction works An Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology and The Virtue of Selfishness. I'm confident that I'm recieving at least Atlas Shrugged for Christmas. While the fact I should read all of her books goes without statement, is there a specific order that I should continue towards? Welcome to the forum. Using the search function can help answer questions, but if not, please, ask them. Dually noted. I have a question about the specfics regarding the metaphysics of objectivism, but I'll see if the question has been asked previously before I make another thread.

softwareNerd Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I've read the fiction novella Anthem, and the non-fiction works An Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology and The Virtue of Selfishness.There was a topic here a while ago, where different people had varying opinions on the best place to start. Not sure what search terms would find it. If Santa does get you AS for X'mas, then you've got the largest bases covered. I suppose "Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal" would be the next logical place, if you wanted non-fiction. Dually noted.Since you've alread noted it twice, I won;t repeat the advice (just kidding). Welcome to the forum, and I hope you find what you seek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly enough, that book is next on my Christmas list (The joys of still being a teenager ). Since you've alread noted it twice, I won;t repeat the advice (just kidding). Welcome to the forum, and I hope you find what you seek. I thought it looked incorrect. Glad to know I wasn't doubting myself without reason.

Tenure Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Welcome to the forum. Using the search function can help answer questions, but if not, please, ask them. The search function is like a twisted she-demon. I recommend instead, if you have it, that you use the Google Bar's "Site Search" function. Welcome to the forum, by the way, Montrevux. Glad you're here rather than there. Bloody People's Front of Judea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
