A thread on my 2020 read list.
2019 read list link below.
Broke 2020 read list into 3 parts.
1) A philosophy I admire.
2) A topic I& #39;m fascinated about.
3) An author I& #39;m curious about.

So on
1) On Philosophy. Stoicism is the school of thought.
2) On topics. Game theory.
Reading mostly Matt Ridley and Thomas Schelling.
3) On author, I& #39;ll be looking mostly at the works of Rene Girard. Peter Thiel gives a glowing recommendation. So....¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Discourses by Epictetus opens the door for me into the world of stocism.
I& #39;ve always admired the stoic philosophy of dealing with uncertainties and what life throws at you.

This dialogue right here is what draws me to stoicism.

Rene Girard& #39;s The Scapegoat is one of those paradigm shifting reads.
The lockdown provided ample time to read the texts.
How divergent this is from anything I& #39;ve read is fascinating.
Looking at collective murder from the scapegoat& #39;s perspective is brilliant.

The view at the subtexts that governs humans interactions, in this instance tailored towards collective murder especially in religious and mythological texts is

Up next. Seneca& #39;s letters from a stoic. Seneca tries to make Stoicism more reletable. The Discourse is a more friendly read.
