22. Ayn Rand & Objectivism | Philosophy
On this material objectivism The philosophy of Ayn Rand is based. It is the currently best and most extensive presentation of objectivism available.
http://www.aynrand.de/UK/5Philosophy.htm
Biography Fiction Nonfiction Periodicals Philosophy Miscellany Resources Contact Allan Gotthelf On Ayn Rand This is the best introductory book on Ayn Rand’s philosophy (Objectivism) that is currently available. With introduction, two chapters on Ayn Rand's biography and intellectual maturation, and another ten chapters on her philosophy of Objectivism, this volume gets by with merely 95 pages (including endnotes). It has appeared in the Wadsworth Philosophers series, which offers for all important philosophers in history and presence easily understandable introductions. “Each volume in the Wadsworth Philosopher Series provides a brief and accessible insight into the ideas of major philosophers throughout history. Each of the authors in the series is a scholar writing with expert knowledge and understanding of the philosopher under discussion. Series Editor Daniel Kolak, Chairman of the Department of Philosophy at The William Paterson University in New Jersey, oversees each volume, helping to insure that each book achieves its goal of empowering the reader to better understand the original works of these influential thinkers.” (from the cover) The book can be read as a summary of the much more extensive Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand (see below), and can therefore be definitively recommended for everyone interested in Objectivism.

Three Ruling Values To Help You Grow
Through its three-part Ideal Self program—adapted from Hyrum Smith's book What Matters Most —Central Florida Objectivists show members how to live rational yet passionate lives of personal fulfillment and achievement. DISCOVER Objectivism holds individual human life in this world as the standard of all moral values and your life as an end in itself. Our ruling value of S elf- E steem drives our weekly Love Your Life online chats as we rigorously examine Ayn Rand’s philosophy. Participants learn about the objective nature of human life in general and themselves in particular. Integration of these lessons allows participants to defend their minds against the postmodernists of the Left and the religionists of the Right so they can live their own lives happily and without obstruction.

IT IS IN THE EMPIRICIST development, as we know, that the new psychology, which was required as a correlate to pure natural science when the latter was separated off, is brought to its first concrete execution, Thus it is concerned with investigations of introspective psychology in the field of the soul, which has now been separated from the body, as well as with physiological and psychophysical explanations. On the other hand, this psychology is of service to a theory of knowledge which, compared with the Cartesian one, is completely new and very differently worked out. In Locke's great work this is the actual intent from the start. It offers itself as a new attempt to accomplish precisely what Descartes's Meditations intended to accomplish: an epistemological grounding of the objectivity of the objective sciences. The sceptical posture of this intent is evident from the beginning in questions like those of the scope, the extent, and the degrees of certainty of human knowledge. Locke senses nothing of the depths of the Cartesian

Newsgroups: sci.philosophy.tech,sci.philosophy.meta From: sasghm@theseus.unx.sas.com (Gary Merrill) Subject: Rand's work: style and quality Date: Mon, 2 Aug 1993 14:22:06 GMT Organization: SAS Institute Inc. Before I begin discussing the substance of any of Rand's ideas, I would like to consider some questions pertaining to the form and style of her writings. In part, this is to give an account of why academics typically have a certain response to these writings, and in part it is to set the stage for analyses that are yet to come. The questions I ultimately want to address are these:
  • What is it that differentiates Rand's writing from the writing of academics and professional philosophers?
  • Is this a significant difference, or is it merely a difference in style that can be (and ought to be) ignored in order to benefit from the deeper content of those writings?
  • What is the quality of scholarship in these writings, and does (and ought) this effect the manner in which the writings are approached and viewed? When we look into Rand's 87 pages of text, what do we find that stylistically differentiates Rand's work from what might be called "standard scholarship". First, any number of *positions* are referred to without there being any clue as to who is claimed to hold these positions. These are the following (numbers in parentheses are page numbers in which the positions are mentioned):

    The Benefits and Hazards of the Philosophy of Ayn Rand: A Personal Statement
    by Nathaniel Branden, Ph.D. ( NathanielBranden@compuserve.com
    Abstract: For eighteen years I was a close associate of novelist-philosopher Ayn Rand whose books, notably The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged , inspired a philosophical movement known as objectivism. This philosophy places its central emphasis on reason, individualism, enlightened self-interest, political freedom and a heroic vision of life's possibilities. Following an explosive parting of the ways with Ayn Rand in 1968, I have been asked many times about the nature of our differences. This article is my first public answer to that question. Although agreeing with many of the values of the objectivist philosophy and vision, I discuss the consequences of the absence of an adequate psychology to support this intellectual structure focusing in particular on the destructive moralism of Rand and many of her followers, a moralism that subtly encourages repression, self-alienation, and guilt. I offer an explanation of the immense appeal of Ayn Rand's philosophy, particularly to the young, and suggest some cautionary observations concerning its adaptation to one's own life. This article is reprinted from the Journal of Humanistic Psychology , where it appeared in issue number four of volume twenty-four in the Fall of 1984 on pages thirty-nine through sixty-four. It is an adaptation of a speech first delivered at the University of California at San Diego on May 25, 1982, which is available on

    The Holy Sixth Century Rationality and philosophy were discovered and invented around the early 500s BC in eastern Ionia. Concomitant with these wondrous creations were much more pleasure, happiness, ambition, and hope in life for all the new Greek men of reason. Once consistent systematic rational thought became possible, and somewhat the norm, old-style mythology became un-credible and unserious. All the traditional polytheistic gods like Zeus, Athena, and Apollo immediately died out in the hearts and minds of the educated elite and ruling aristocracy altho' not for the low, vulgar, ignorant, sentimental, superstitious, but largely irrelevant masses. Virtually everyone high and low reacted and adapted to this radical new situation in a variety of ways. Many did so, unfortunately, in standard Hegelian Dialectic fashion with the creation of rationality's and philosophy's opposite and antithesis: the mystery cults. Altho' few today realize it, all contemporary religions are just old, tired, lame, sorry, post-reason mystery cults which have been lightly adapted and updated. The essence, heart, and "soul" of this mystery cultism and "religion" both today and always is

    Objectivist philosophy
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
    Objectivism (capitalized) is the name chosen by Ayn Rand for her philosophy: a philosophy for living on earth, grounded in reality with the purpose of enabling its adherents to facilitate interaction with the natural world. Objectivism has two common themes. The primary theme is the sanctity of the individual human person. In Rand's own words:
    My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute.
    The other theme, from which we get the name "Objectivism", is Rand's trichotomy among the "intrinsic", the "subjective", and the "objective". Neither concepts nor values are "intrinsic" to external reality, but neither are they merely "subjective" (by which Rand means "arbitrary" rather than "subject-dependent"). Rather, Rand contends that properly formed concepts and values are objective in the sense that they meet the specific needs of the individual human person. This theme thus follows from the first.

The articles are extensively hyper-linked, so you can pretty much dive in anywhere and proceed from there. There is also a concept chart that shows graphically how some of the major ideas in Objectivism relate to one another. These articles are divided up among the five branches of philosophy. Each branch studies a particular area and attempts to provide answers to some basic question. Metaphysics Study of Existence What's out there? Epistemology Study of Knowledge How do I know about it?
