Can never find the Borges' book of poetry in any store, yet they'll have a dozen copies of his complete fiction
>>8019301
Those were all separate finds at different half price books, they're awesome.
Best stack coming through.

Just because you own certain books doesn't mean that you've read them, or understand them, or that you're smart. Idiots. These kinds of threads are useless.
>>8021591
They sell them like that, it happens in the UK too.
>>8021587
Not bad. What was/is your major?
>>8019594
have you read Shakespeare's Gay Boys in Bondage?

>The Multispecies Salon
Wow, I actually recognize these. Just read "A Cyborg Manifesto" for a class the other day. And a friend sent me an interesting excerpt about brittlestar ontology from The Multispecies Salon, been meaning to get my hands on it since.

Sorry, I was going to troll with these old bookshelf pictures a mentally unsound tripfag posted a few years ago.
This guy had 80 million books lying around his house and he would post pictures of them at the slightest provocation. I thought it would be fun to pretend to be super well read but it hurts to be dishonest.
>>8022337
Looks like he bought everything discussed in the pseud threads.
>>8022337
Lot of those seem new as fuck.
lol
real patrician "stax" are to be found in libraries
What I bought this week. Only cost me 47 USD.
>>8022527
How's high school going?
>>8017586
Then go make friends...
>>8022540
There's a lot of required reading but I think it's shaping up to be a shaping up to be up to be a good year!
>>8022540
Stop being such a faggot.
My shelf atm:
>The Divine Comedy (Inferno, Purgatorio, Paradiso)
>The Discoverers (Boorstin)
>The Origin of Species & The Descent of Man
>The Brothers Karamazov
>Siddhartha
>The Road
>Moby Dick
>Paradise Lost/Regained
>Nineteen Eighty-Four
>Frankenstein
>The Grapes of Wrath
>Walden
>Slaughterhouse Five
>Leaves of Grass
and
>The Premier Book of Major Poets
I plan on getting A Portrait of An Artist, Blood Meridian, Heart of Darkness, The Old Man and The Sea, and War and Peace soon.
Also, a good version of the Bible (recommendations?) and a good book that details Greek mythology (or series of books (also looking for recs here)). I love Greek mythos and I want to read the Bible so I can have that allusion under my belt for future writing.
>>8022765
HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHHAHHA
>>8017516
jesus christ you are a fucking faggot go kill yourself
>>8022527
I wouldnt pay more than 20 for those paperbacks
>>8022765
>Bible
The English Bible, King James Version (Norton Critical Edition). It's separated into two volumes (each volume is 2000+ pages!), has the most notes and extras I've ever seen and it's KJV.
>Greek myths
Mythology by Hamilton. This is the de facto recommendation. It's only one book.
>>8023060
Thanks, I was considering that very bible actually. But I was wondering if there was a more comprehensive series of the Greek mythology than that book. Something condensed like said book, but not as much. If there usnt, then I will likely get a used copy again to finish.
>>8021578
>retractilated
did you just make up this word or what
>>8023082
The Cambridge Companion to Greek Mythology is likely good, maybe even better than Hamilton, but I haven't read it.
>>8022527
But literally only one of those is good.
>>8022558
all that reading has done you good
>>8023137
>>8023152
I'm on your guys side. I don't want Hamilton, I didn't like it for anything other than a Greek mythos thesaurus. I know there's a lot of Greek lit out there, but I was asking if there was a collection of the sources, not including the epics (I'd rather obtain Homer's works and larger pieces on their own) contained in a few books?
>>8023117
This sounds like more of what I'm looking for, but I'll have to check for sure. Thank you
>>8023198
I mean, you can usually get just about every "major" greek's entire ouvre in just one or two volumes.
>>8022091
The brittlestar chapter is actually quite nice if you read Haraway's Situated Knowledge beforehand. Going to write something like a response to both of these.
>>8021587
Just when I started to get impressed ... >>8022337
Anyway, here's the sequel to >>8019924, morphed my remaining 5 stacks into one
>>8021208
thank you for your effort!
>>8022337

>>8022337
>LE GRAIN
fucking redditor
>>8023983
Are you the Michael Polanyi tard that drones on about tacit knowledge?
>>8024017
It#s the best dictionary you get in German, but it doesn't tell you anything about shroomgrowing. I do, however, have a scan of what is probably THE handbook for that kind of stuff. If there's anyone interested, I'll gladly upload it.
>>8024019
Nope, I'm more of a Karl Polanyi fan. Didn't know there was a MP fanboy here.
Am I a patrician?
>>8024124
possibly close.
>>8024124
Pessoa is fedora as fuck and everything else in your stack is old as the hills (except Proust, kind of)
you seem like the kind of guy who smokes a pipe

Most patrician, my friend.
>>8024210
>Pessoa is fedora as fuck
>>8023102
Yeah I did
you got a problem with that?
>>8024219
>400 pages of a guy's journal about how he's so much more intelligent than everyone else and that's why he's nihilistic and sucks at everything
>>8024240
He's a dreamer, not more intelligent. And he's not nihilistic at all. Are you trolling or stupid? I can't tell with you guys ever.
>>8024240
Why are we suddenly talking about your diary?
>>8024259
He literally says multiple times in the course of the book that he's more intelligent than normal people
I'm not even paraphrasing
>>8024271
So what? He writes well enough that's he probably to the right of the bell curve. He's insecure. That doesn't make him a fedora. Not everything you dislike is a goddamn fedora.
>>8024282
He's the definition of fedora, asshat.
>>8024282
>Proclaiming to the world that you're enlightened by your own intelligence isn't fedora

¿Qué ediciones de Borges son esas?
>>8024343
La Nacion: buenos, baratos, pero los del final tuve que recorrer medio buenos aires para conseguirlos
>>8024352
Sorry, I don't understand your savage language.
Except for "boludo". Great word.
>>8024357
>la concha de tu madre
>weon, la wea
>boludito

It's all I hear when playing CS:GO with boludos, why don't you have manners? Fucking indigenous dialect.
>>8024347
Could you take clearer pictures of those books, please?

Thats nothing compared to Brazilians

>>8024369
>la concha de tu madre
it is like "motherfucker"
>weon, la wea
Chilenian. Fuck them, nobody understand them. Not even them.
>boludito
a little boludo. Boludo it is like "dude", "friend", etc. and "idiot" too. It is a multiuse word.
>negruro
not argie
>>8024370
I found one
>>8024378
es una lastima que todos conocen a borges pero solo un 10% lo leyo...

So when you read about samurai in the 1600s who wield katanas and have facial hair, do you consider them neckbeards? Dimwit.

>smokes a pipe
are you kidding me m8? He's got the standard "i'm gonna read a few old popular books that are the most famous in the world and hope to be patrician books"
you and him can both fuck off.
>>8024210
>Pessoa is fedora as fuck
Not that anon but I find that it's usually the younger posters who care whether something is "fedora" or not. If you're in your late 20s and on this meme should stop being a thing for you.
don't let your memes be dreams
>>8017576
>not having The Book of Imaginary Beings
Just kidding, nice collection. Would buy the above though in order to complete the series.
>>8017516
And not a single one of them looks like they've been touched, let alone read.
Certainly what I'd come to expect from you /lit/, this is some /co/ level look at mah shelf shit.

You talk as if there was something wrong with doing that. So, according to you, one should not read these kind of books at all?
