	Structure and Meaning in Ayn Rand's Novels
		My purpose today is to draw your attention to how this principle informs not only Ayn Rand's theory, but also her own literary practice, by focusing on the structural composition of her two major novels, The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged.
		In Rand's formulation, the theme of Atlas is: "the role of the mind in man's existence." The plot-theme, the central conflict that links the theme to the action, is-also in her formulation-"the men of the mind going on strike against an altruist-collectivist society."
		It is mainly through Dagny's pursuit of these quests, and her need to solve the puzzle they represent, that the secrets of the plot proper is revealed to us-much as in a detective story, where the plot centering on the detective struggling to solve a mystery uncovers a deeper hidden plot of crime.

	Penguin Reading Guides \| Atlas Shrugged \| Ayn Rand
		Atlas Shrugged (1957) and The Fountainhead (1943) offer profound and original philosophic themes, expressed in logical, dramatic plot structures.
		Atlas Shrugged (1957) is a mystery story, Ayn Rand once commented, "not about the murder of man’s body, but about the murder—and rebirth—of man’s spirit." It is the story of a man—the novel’s hero—who says that he will stop the motor of the world, and does.
		Dramatizing Ayn Rand’s complete philosophy, Atlas Shrugged is an intellectual revolution told in the form of an action thriller of violent events—and with a ruthlessly brilliant plot and irresistible suspense.

		to give a democratic structure to high culture and top-level technology — is not without its disadvantages: it creates the possibility of vast crises of unemployment — for the middle intellectual strata, and in all modern societies this actually takes place.
		The relationship between the intellectuals and the world of production is not as direct as it is with the fundamental social groups but is, in varying degrees, “mediated” by the whole fabric of society and by the complex of superstructures, of which the intellectuals are, precisely, the “functionaries”.
		It should be possible both to measure the “organic quality” [organicità] of the various intellectual strata and their degree of connection with a fundamental social group, and to establish a gradation of their functions and of the superstructures from the bottom to the top (from the structural base upwards).

	Timeline of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged
		Scholars, students, and fans of Ayn Rand’s masterwork, Atlas Shrugged, often find it difficult to grasp the complex details of its plot, and to find temporal reference points for key events and relationships among its many characters.
		Because Ayn Rand sought to give her Atlas Shrugged a sense of timelessness, she did not tie its events to real-world dates.
		So she set this huge, sprawling tale ambiguously in the “near future.” The main events take place over a four-year period; however, there are also many allusions to “back story” events that transpired before the novel opens, which are often brought to life in flashbacks.
