E3 - Eddie Willers
Manage episode 319717499 series 3312435
In this episode, I focus on the interior thoughts of Eddie Willers and the description of a city in decay. These pages take us into some interesting territory: what is Eddie's sense of apprehension? From the socialist point of view: how does capitalism betray us? From Rand's point of view: how has socialism betrayed what was great about capitalism?
Today's Moment of Non-Contradiction comes from Reddit.
In this episode, I mention Ayn Rand scholar Jennifer Burns and her book The Goddess of the Market.
My five themes to explore in this podcast's close read of Atlas Shrugged are:
- What is human nature?
- Straw-man arguments and their impact on the world Ayn Rand creates.
- Dagny Taggart as a true hero.
- How empathy can be de-legitimized.
- What is Capitalism and what is wrong with it?
