a great way of approaching those two is to read The Gay Science — Jamal

Thank you, I've been meaning to pick that one up. I will look into reading that one first.

you will need to check out Aristotle's The Poetics for a better idea of where he was coming from though (it is a short though, so not a huge burden). — I like sushi

Appreciate that I will give that a look today.


Appreciate the help!

Thank you. I am very happy to be here! If you or anyone on this thread have any book recommendations on any subject of philosophy or various subjects that you enjoy I will gladly take any recommendations. I’m very open into understanding and learning any subject matter.

Currently reading On the Genealogy of Morals and Ecce Homo

Been meaning to pick this book up. I've read Thus Spoke Zarathustra in the past when I was younger but honestly I didn't get too much out of that book. So people have recommended me to start reading the other books by Nietzsche then give TSZ another shot.

After I finish up that book and before I continue my Nietzsche study I will be picking up Classical Cynicism: A Critical Study by Luis Navia. Been really wanting to study more of the ancient philosophy of Cynicism and Stoicism.
