	Bibliography of work on Objectivism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ayn Rand and Objectivism are the subject of a large literature, both in favor of Objectivist ideals, and critical.
		This autobiographical work details her relationship with Leonard and, whether rightly or wrongly, attributes at least some of the blame for his behavior to the principles of Objectivism itself.
		Ryan argues that Rand relied implicitly on a foundation of rationalistic objective idealism to create an explicit philosophy at odds with such idealism, and that in doing so she was primarily motivated by a desire to cleanse philosophy of anything smacking of religion/theism.

	Spiral Nature - Philosophy - Objectivism - The Unlikeliest Cult In History
		The cultic flaw in Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism is not in the use of reason, or in the emphasis on individuality, or in the belief that humans are self motivated, or in the conviction that capitalism is the ideal system.
		Professors taught courses in the philosophy of Objectivism and the literary works of Rand.
		Professional philosophers generally refuse to take her work seriously (both because she wrote for popular audiences and because her work is not considered a complete philosophy).

	Responses to Objectivism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The general reaction of academia to Objectivism has been quite negative, to the point where it is often not taken as a serious contribution to the field and is therefore seen as worthy of little more than dismissal.
		After many years of working at it, the student of Dianetics becomes a 'clear,' while the student of Objectivism becomes a full-fledged Objectivist...Both Dianetics and Objectivist psychology draw fire from the psychiatric establishment.
		Though Rand denigrates Kant's system as the absolute opposite of Objectivism, some writers have even suggested that Rand drew on Kantian ideas without realizing it."She despised Immanuel Kant but then actually invokes 'treating persons as ends rather than as means only' to explain the nature of morality,"[5] argues Dr. Kelley Ross.

		Since Objectivism answers the fundamental questions that Plato posed on the nature of the universe, of the mind, of human life on this earth and man's life in society, it is also a Western philosophy.

		Tara Smith is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin, and holder of the University's Fellowship for the Study of Objectivism.
		Rand thus conceives of objectivity as the relationship between a volitional consciousness and mind-independent reality when that consciousness adheres to the methods required by its nature and the nature of its objects if it is to know, and live in, reality.
		This new conception of objectivity shapes not only her view of concepts and values, but through them her entire epistemology and ethics, and the whole of her philosophic system.

	SEP: Maurice Merleau-Ponty
		According to Merleau-Ponty, the Gestalists had misunderstood the ultimate implications of their own work, because they believed that the notion of structure can be thought within the naturalist ontology that subtended the thought of the atomists whom they had criticized.
		After his work with the thought of Saussure, he tells us that we are "always already’ within language, that it is not we who have language, but rather it is language that has us.
		He claims that for an experience ‘prior to being worked over’, it is an encounter with "a punctuation in the field of red things, which includes the tiles of rooftops; the flags of gatekeepers and of the revolution; of certain terrains near Aix or Madagascar.

		Objectivism denies that the proposition is the fundamental unit of knowledge, arguing instead that concepts themselves constitute the building blocks of knowledge.
		Objectivism holds that this distinction should be explicated as (i.e., replaced with) the distinction between the metaphysical and the man-made.
		Objectivism holds that an official institutional government, though a minimal one, is necessary in order to provide and safeguard such a society; such a government, on Rand's view, must have a territorial monopoly on the use of (retaliatory) force.

		Her philosophy—Objectivism—upholds objective reality (as opposed to supernaturalism), reason as man's only means of knowledge (as opposed to faith or skepticism), free will (as opposed to determinism—by biology or environment), and an ethics of rational self-interest (as opposed to the sacrifice of oneself to others or others to self).

		Objectivism is the ultimate philosophy of unsullied reason and unadulterated individualism, as expressed by Rand through her primary character in Atlas Shrugged, John Galt: Man cannot survive except by gaining knowledge, and reason is his only means to gain it.

		Notice too that they don't even include any other works of Ayn Rand, just OPAR seemingly thrown in the mix of a (mostly) critical group of books that don't even discuss her philosophy or Anthem but rather her personally.
		All of Rand’s works are much better in terms of philosophy them in terms of literary quality.
		My point that Rand’s works are much better philosophically the literarily, is a more complex one best made on a book by book basis.

		She considered her work in communicating her philosophy to the world complete after it received much of the same criticism that The Fountainhead had.
		Many articles from this were published in later non-fiction works such as For the New Intellectual (1961), The Virtue of Selfishness (1964), Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal (1966), Introduction Epistemology (1967), The Romantic Manifesto (1969) and The New Left: The Anti-Industrial Revolution (1971).

		Guimond contextualizes objectivism in the works of Williams, and also includes a useful bibliography.

		It didn’t make him any friendlier toward religion when he saw his cousin Robineau (or Roxanne) de Neuvillette retire to a convent after the death of her husband, scourge her body, and become a hideous travesty of her former self.
		Cyrano’s most brilliant surviving work is L'Autre Monde or The Other World (sometimes translated with the descriptive title The Comical History of the States and Empires of the Moon.
		The work ends abruptly, cut short by Cyrano’s untimely death in 1655, probably due to syphilis (perhaps aggravated by a serious head injury he received from a falling log—possibly an accident, possibly a murder attempt on the part of his enemies, as in Rostand’s play).
