I really enjoy the infograph flow charts of different collections of thought/authors. They were actually what got me to start reading outside of genre fiction, I really enjoy the sense of completion, arbitrary or not. Post your best faggots.
Other infographs besides flow charts also appreciated, as well if anyone wants to contribute OC. Dumping my collection so far.

There have been like 20+ made, like 3 are worth anything.
I want to make a chart for Beckett, but I don't know whether I should make one for his drama and another for the prose, or just one that mixes both.
So far I have read all the drama, but none of the prose. Should I wait till I finish reading his novels and short stories to begin planning the chart?
Can someone make a Faulkner one?

Lmfao, is that an edit?
Those first two charts are quite sexy. Any idea what program was used to make them?
>>7983023
10/10
>>7983013
I actually laughed uncontrollably at this
>>7983039
For his main works go As I Lay Dying -> The Sound And the Fury -> Absolom, Absolom!
But before that read some of his short stories. He has other novels but no idea where they fit in
>>7984283
Is there a reason why Absalom last? It's actually the only Faulkner I have bought.
>>7984271
People keep marrying Zizek. Why?

Green Hills of Africa is a very good entry point into Hemingway for anyone with /out/-related hobbies or intrests. He is not a very challenging author to understand, but anyway.
>>7982822
Pretty meh list.
Strike out the Jewish Wars, the Deeds of August and add Catullus' poetry, Cicero's In Catilinam, Cicero's Letters, both of Salustius' books (De coniurationem Catilinae and Bellum Iugurthinum), Horatio's Carmina (Exegi Monumentum, etc), Ovidius' Amores and Ars Amatoria, Livius' Ad Urbe condita, Marcial's Epigrams, Pliny the Elder's Naturalis historia, Petronius' Satirikon, Tacitus' Agricola, Germania and Historiae (more relevant than his Annales, but that might be just my personal opinion, Annales is about emperors that were already dead when he wrote the book, Historiae is about the 69 Crisis which he personally lived through), Iuvenalis' Satires and Apuleius' Asinus Aureus.
And yes you're going to have to read all of this if you want to actually KNOW the Romans. Most of it is not very long though.
>>7986848
Are you the guy who always does this when the Romans are talked about?
>>7986868
Nope, first time doing this. Why?
>>7986848
Also wanted to add that if you're into romantic poetry, dont hesitate to get Propertius' and Tibulus' anthologies.
Another thing, there's a very good collection of elegies, going from Archaic Greece to Late Roman Empire, but I forgot its name. Definitely recommend it though. Ill see if I can find the name.
