Haha I feel so terrible but I just can't write it. I wrote a page back in like July and that's it. I [i]think[/i] about writing it all the time though, and that's all that matters.

I love justifying my laziness.

Heh.

Well, if you don't even want to send it, then don't. It'll be no huge loss for me.

^I do that occasionally, because jarviss used to do it. He used to do it to see who was talking crap about him (and thus deserving of a ban), but still. Good enough for him, good enough for me.

Tell me about it. You would think that people would learn by now.

In other news, we have some new critters around our townhouse: a humongous slug (rough estimate: four inches in length - he's huge), and a wolf spider.

In a different vein, we have been enduring a bizarre case of "Who the hell is knocking on our doorwall and running away?" as of late at night. Fortunately, we were able to see who's been responsible all this time, and surely some slingshot water balloons will be a-flyin' come this weekend.

All the lights are out in my building's elevator. It's pretty cool.

Also, I just saw some guy walking across the courtyard carrying a rather large bong-like apparatus. He looked quite pleased with himself.

MX is quiet all of the sudden

Well I've got through the introduction and chapters 1-6 today. I've now got to miss out chapters 7-10, and then read 11-21, before the start of next week (when I need to be ready to read Locke instead). So much reading. I had lot of set reading last year, but it's annoying because this year I have to actually do it.

Luckily I think I've understood the majority of it so far.

I need to read Leviathan this year. Good God, I have a lot of reading for my Imaging War Lit lecture. :(

I had to read all of the Iliad in just a week. Luckily I already know the basics of how it goes, since my girlfriend loves the Iliad.

EDIT: We're also reading the Aeneid simultaneously: Iliad for group conference, Aeneid for class. Too much old Greek stuff...I want to get to the Keegan history books. :cool:

Leviathan? I've heard the name, but I'm drawing a blank.

EDIT: I still want to read the Illiad. I haven't gotten around to it.

NP: Jotun - In Flames

[QUOTE=Taste_My_Scythe]Leviathan? I've heard the name, but I'm drawing a blank. [/QUOTE]

Thomas Hobbes big ol' piece of work (book).

[QUOTE=SOP]
I have Machiavelli, Locke, Hobbes and Rousseau all to study for Christmas, including reading full texts. Luckily I did the two latter last year, or else I'd be :-\[/QUOTE]

I have Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau and Marx to read for Political Philosophy this year. My only slight stroke of luck is that I've done a lot of the supplementary reading on my own already (Nietzsche, Machiavelli, Wolff, and commentaries on/extracts from Hobbes and Locke), either in earlier study or for fun.

Same goes for Epistemology, incidentally. I haven't touched the main texts before, but I've read Descartes' Meditations and Plato's Meno and stuff already. Hopefully it'll help.

No, I'll admit it's the Nietzsche and Machiavelli that was for fun :)

I'm just doing a straight single honours Philosophy course, though since it's my second year I had more of a say (i.e. I had some say) in what modules I'm taking, rather than the blanket introductory stuff of last year. How about you?

I'm not really big on Philosophical literature
I've read some Blake.

but anyways, Nietzsche writes existentialist philosophy, not?
do you have any particular work to recommend, or any other existentialist philosophy.
or .wait....... am I confusing him with Sartre?

Sartre's the big existentialist, I think. One of my modules this year is entitled simply "Sartre and Nietzsche", so I assume I'll know more about the two of them in a few weeks.

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]History & Politics. I had Philosophy aswell last year, but I got to drop a subject after a year. As much fun as Philosophy was, it was always third place to those two. What do you hope to do after you're done?[/QUOTE]

I've no idea :)

Just chose Philosophy because it looked interesting. I'm not even sure if it leads into any particular jobs.

[QUOTE=Bartender]Sartre's the big existentialist, I think. One of my modules this year is entitled simply "Sartre and Nietzsche", so I assume I'll know more about the two of them in a few weeks.

It must be one of my relatives or something.

Nietzsche's most famous book is [i]Thus Spoke Zarathrusa[/i], but I like [i]Beyond Good and Evil[/i]. I actually noticed a few days back that the quote inside Death's [i]The Sound Of Perseverance[/i] is taken from [I]Beyond Good and Evil[/i]. ("He who fights monsters should see to it that he does not become a monster, and when you gaze deep into the abyss the abyss gazes deep into you".)

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]Sartre and Nietzsche were both existentialists, but Nietzsche is the big one. His most accessible work, I think, is [i]The Gay Science[/i], though [i]Beyond Good & Evil[/i] is very interesting too. Go talk to Das Ubermensch (yeah, he's hardcore) in PNWI, he'll tell you all you need to know at N. Sartre was a Marxist philosopher in the same tradition, concerned primarily with being. I'm not as familiar with him, but one piece of his I came across last year was his short story [i]The Wall[/i], which is an excellent read. I posted it one time, [url=http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=333527]here[/url].


Haha, I'm in the same boat. Journalism seems to be my most likely outlet, but I'm really not thinking about careers right now.[/QUOTE]


thanks for your input.
and Ad Absurdum too :)

/has a lot of reading to do

[i]Leviathan[/i] was definitely one of the most painstaking reads I had to do, even though you try so hard to think you came away with something after reading it. I can't say that I did, save for a headache.

I thought that my Greek classes were going to be boring texts, but they definitely pale in comparison. Thucydides, as great of a historiographer as he was for his time, was irritating to read just because my professors at the time insisted that we read his entire history. The [i]Iliad[/i] and [i]The Odyssey[/i] were good books, and what I came away with after that class was a little more worthwhile. The [i]Aeneid[/i] was also decent, I didn't find too much trouble with that.

Socrates wasn't too bad, either, and neither was Aristophanes' [i]Clouds[/i] and the other book we read, the name escapes me now. Anyway, I just hated the extraordinary amount of papers we had to write for that class to compliment the extraordinary amount of reading I had to do. I'm just glad that that class is over and done with, heh.

I had to read a little bit of [i]The Two Treatises of Government[/i] by Locke - man, talk about another bored-like-wood reading.
