Personally, I can't stand Derrida. Deleuze and Guattari are really hard to get into but once you soaked up their new concepts and terminology, I like what they do. The Colebrook book is a good intro to them, it really helped me. I can do more another day, this guy Manuel DeLanda is sweet too but i'll have to re-up it onto mediafire first. Will do tmrw or something. Enjoy! |

Windom is the shit. I haven't thought about Hakim Bey in a long time. Thanks for posting all of these. I rarely come into contact with anyone who gives a shit about any of this stuff. |

Derrida is a fucking genius, with certain tendencies that make me hate him on occasion. I personally find 'not being able to stand Derrida' while having positive things to say about D&G or Hardt & Negri (some of Negri's solo work excluded) to be ENTIRELY UNACCEPTABLE! Let's have an academic fistfight.
Thanks for posting all these texts, I snagged a couple of the Ranciere works I've never wanted to pay for.
For folks new to Zizek, start either with 'Sublime Object' or 'Ticklish Subject.' And remember, that if you don't know a fair amount about Kant and post-Kantian history of philosophy, he is going to be obscure as fuck, regardless of how enjoyable he may be to read. For example, I don't think the first two chapters of Ticklish Subject would make a lot of sense unless you've read Kant's CPR and Heidegger's 'Kant and the Problem of Metaphysics.'
EDIT: I would be STOKED if you'd upload some Agamben stuff. STOKED. I'm going to use you to get books I don't want to pay for. |

When I say that I don't like Derrida, I mean I can't stand to read him, my eyes just glaze over. Although I struggle with D and G, I still feel I am getting somewhere. I might just be stupid. I've read books on D and G by other authors that have helped me. Maybe you can recommend me a good place to start? 'On Grammatology'? |

Fucking awesome. Thanks.
Re: Derrida.
Start with shorter essays...the "big ones" are best: Differánce, White Mythology, Ends of Man, Plato's Pharmacy, etc. From there it all depends on your interests. I think "Of Grammatology" is actually pretty straightforward, so not a bad place to go. It will also give you a good intro to how Derrida works. If you have any knowledge of Husserl, the Introduction to On the Origins of Geometry is great, as is Voice and Phenomena. I think Given Time: Counterfeit Money is pretty accessible, too. Especially if you've read Bataille's Accursed Share Vol. 1. If you're interested in more political shit, Rogues is great. I also like Paper Machine. There is just so much. Politics of Friendship is a good starter too. Oh Oh...also the interviews in Positions and Negotiations; interesting to read together too b/c they were done so far apart.
For secondary lit, I recommend the bible: Rodolphe Gasché's "The Tain of the Mirror." It is phenomenal--an attempt to reclaim Derrida as a philosopher from the lit crit folks--even if, as Geoffrey Bennington put it, it is the 'super ego of Derrida scholars.' Bennington himself is also great and very helpful as a commentator. I'll also recommend Taking on the Tradition by Michael Naas.
Derrida, you have to remember, also requires a lot of knowledge of the history of philosophy to get much out of. I think that without a decent handle on Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Husserl, and Heidegger (at least) he is hard to make heads or tails of--especially considering that so much of his early work is an attempt (often a failure in my estimation) to distinguish himself from Heidegger.
EDIT: Last request for awhile...do you have Hallward's book on Deleuze? "Out of this World," I think it is called? |

I don't unfortunately. I read some of that at Uni but I was mining it for stuff on a particular Deleuze concept so didn't take much of it in. I'm in Uni tomorrow so I'll see if I can scan it. Got loads more Deleuze if you need. For the mean time, I don't know if peeps are interested in a pdf of this:
Peter Sloterdijk - Critique of Cynical Reason - http://www.mediafire.com/?gzjbswgz9xx
or
Peter Hallward- The Politics of Prescription - http://www.mediafire.com/?4dve5hnvu0m |

You're in good company. I can't even remember what postmodernism is, and I only graduated college 2 years ago. |

right now I'm running through Necessary Illusions by Noam Chomsky, and a collection of Essays titled "What Orwell Didn't Know: Propaganda and the New Face of American Politics." Both are pretty good, the former being more eye opening than the latter. When trying to discuss it with my peers, many haven't read 1984 nor ever heard of George Orwell...kind of aggravating sometimes. Anyone read Freakinomics or Wikinomics? I finished Freakinomics bout a month ago, and picked up wikinomics as I am in love with wikipedia and mass collaboration. |

Who do you hang out with such that they have never heard of George Orwell?
I think I've been around universities too long. |
