Extractions: Eventually, I summoned the courage to probe, bombarding the ever-patient Ms. Rand with very specific questions about her four bestselling novels: ANTHEM, WE THE LIVING, THE FOUNTAINHEAD, and (especially) ATLAS SHRUGGED. It was my good fortune that I got much more out of this phase of Rand's mentoring than I'd bargained for: a thorough indoctrination in the four elements that are crucial to the well-constructed novel: theme, plot, characterization, and style. And, in the process, I found myself. It is to Ayn Rand qua novelist, therefore, that I acknowledge a profound literary debt. But for you, Ayn . . . .

Extractions: E-mail this article Printer friendly Column The Cultural Ascendancy of Ayn Rand by Chris Matthew Sciabarra - Dec 31, 2003 Admirers of Ayn Rand's writings revel in the fact that two decades after the authors death, sales of her combined works continue at a brisk pace. But Rands cultural impact can be measured in ways far beyond book sales. It stretches from academia to comic books to electronic media. Of course, mere mentions of Rand do not necessarily translate into influence , especially when many of the mentions are negative . But there is truth to Oscar Wildes maxim: There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about. The fact that Rand has so profoundly entered the Zeitgeist is something that needs to be celebrated. What we are witnessing is nothing less than Rands cultural ascendancy as an iconic figure.

Extractions: Ayn Rand For too long New Zealanders' have been given a 'Clayton's Choice' as far as political parties are concerned. There has never been a party consistently promoting a free society - one that would put paid to bloated government bureaucracy and is authoritarian inclinations. We've had conservative parties, liberal parties, socialist parties, religious parties, women's parties, Maori parties, green parties and even pot - smoking parties. There has never been a libertarian party - until now. Libertarianz is the first and only political party in New Zealand to have an explicit individualistic philosophy. We are committed to shrinking the power and influence of government in every area of our lives. We are building a party with a solid philosophical foundation, committed to the concept of a free society with a free market economy. If you are serious about shrinking the size of government, and you want to ensure the success of a political party that truly stands for freedom, then we need your support - now! We offer you a unique opportunity to influence the future political direction of our nation. Join us, and let's make history together!

Fallows On Ayn Rand

http://www.theatlantic.com/unbound/jfnpr/jf1975.htm

Extractions: T he first time I read Atlas Shrugged was in the summer of 1963, a year before the Goldwater campaign. I was in my early teens at the time, about to begin high school, and very much wrapped up in the right-wing political movements which were then so strong in the part of Southern California where I lived. I quickly got my hands on the major scriptures of the Goldwater crusade, which included Goldwater's own Conscience of a Conservative , the Birch Society's Blue Book , Phyllis Schlaffly's A Choice Not an Echo , and the works of Ayn Rand. I was dutiful enough about memorizing Schlaffly and the Blue Book , but my heart was always with Ayn Rand. The rest of the books might be campaign propaganda, but this, I knew, was philosophy. The Fountainhead We the Living and most of all Atlas Shrugged these three novels articulated a view of life, men, and morals which completely captivated my political imagination. As I read them, I felt that Ayn Rand was enabling me to make sense of what I had observed myself, as well as opening up new dimensions I had not begun to consider. The unique appeal of Atlas Shrugged was that it mirrored the world that I saw; although this is not a comparison I would have made at the time, it provided me with the same shock of recognition the early Bolsheviks must have felt on first reading Marx. The book's most fervent plea was that each man should be permitted to succeed, to rise as high as his abilities would take him, without anyone else getting in the way. Those who failed or were defeated should not be permitted to shift the blame to anyone but themselves. Their frustration or need, by itself, did not constitute a claim for "charity" from their abler brothers.

Extractions: The following article appeared in the Fall 1999 issue of The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies Vol. 1, No. 1 For an introductory essay on how Chris Matthew Sciabarra discovered Ayn Rand's college transcript from the University of Leningrad, now St. Petersburg, see his article in the October 1999 issue of Liberty . For reviews of this particular historical discussion, see essays by Scott Ryan and William Thomas (This article also cited by Don Parrish in his fascinating survey of " Ayn Rand Sites in Saint Petersburg .") THE RAND TRANSCRIPT By Chris Matthew Sciabarra The official transcript copy is signed by the Director of the Central State Archive of St. Petersburg, T. Z. Zernova (30 October 1998). The transcript reports that Alissa Zinovievna Rosenbaum, born in 1905, entered the university on 2 October 1921 and graduated from the Social Pedagogical Division of the Faculty (or College) of the Social Sciences of Leningrad State University. This three-year course of the obshchestvenno - pedagogicheskoe otdelenie (Department of Social Pedagogy) was part of the new social science curriculum at the university, which had united the existing schools of history, philology, and law. The integration of the historical and philosophical disciplines sought to prepare students for careers as social science educators.

'Ayn Rand: A Sense Of Life:' A View Of The Philospher
The documentary is slavish and pedantic. Review by Janet Maslin in the New York Times. Requires free registration.
http://www.nytimes.com/library/film/021398rand-film-review.html

Extractions: February 13, 1998 Related Articles The New York Times on the Web: Current Film Forum Join a Discussion on Movies By JANET MASLIN EW YORK Considering Ayn Rand's ardent faith in individualism, what would she have made of the slavish new two-and-a-half-hour documentary in her honor? Michael Paxton's "Ayn Rand: A Sense of Life" does little beyond appreciating its subject as unwaveringly as possible. Dutiful in outlook and utterly conventional in format, this film is an Academy Award contender despite its clear inferiority to such non-nominees as "East Side Story" and "Sick," not to mention Errol Morris' visionary "Fast, Cheap and Out of Control." Documentary filmmaking loses the respect it deserves when such a pedantic specimen is rewarded at the expense of truly imaginative work. Using talking heads, still photographs and generic stock scenes (a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty to indicate arrival in America) to illustrate dry biographical data, "Ayn Rand: a Sense of Life" traces the rise of its subject and her philosophy. She herself defined the latter as "a religion, an obsession or a mania, all of these expressed in one word: individualism." And she embodied it as stubbornly and provocatively as she knew how. The film follows her from the early experiences in postrevolutionary Russia that shaped her hatred of collectivism to the literary success that won her a devoted cult following. It continues into her late celebrity years in America, where she conducted some of her most visible debates with talk show hosts. Ms. Rand's appearance on the "Tonight" show is mentioned but not shown here, though it's the kind of episode that might have lent the film some idiosyncratic life.
