1. Ayn Rand, Anti-Communism, & The Left Biography and a critical analysis of her philosophy. http://www.friesian.com/rand.htm

Ayn Rand (1905-1982) Ayn Rand (born Alice Rosenbaum) is a fascinating person and an inspiring advocate of freedom but a very mixed blessing philosophically. Her novels The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged are still best selling introductions to the ideas of personal freedom and of the free market. As literature they may have drawbacks, but they are compelling "reads," which is certainly what Rand would have wanted. Rand's passionate and moralistic tone, while off-putting to many, is nevertheless probably a real part of her appeal and is no less than an equal and opposite reaction to the self-righteousness that is still characteristic of leftist rhetoric. Few writers convey an irresistible ferocity of convictions as Rand does. To many, including the present writer, raised and indoctrinated with the standard disparagements of capitalism, a novel like Atlas Shrugged can produce something very much like a Conversion Experience. At the same time, the harsh certainty of an autodidact and self-made person, and the high handed authoritarian manner of Rand's personality, worked against her case, her cause, and her life. Although David Kelley Leonard Peikoff , and others now try to develop her thought into a complete philosophical system, nothing can hide the relative shallowness of her knowledge: She despised Immanuel Kant but then actually invokes "treating persons as ends rather than as means only" to explain the nature of morality. Perhaps she had picked that up without realizing it was from Kant. At the same time, the Nietzschean inspiration that evidently is behind her "virtue of selfishness" approach to ethics seems to have embarrassed her later: She very properly realized that, since the free market is built upon

Rand became a highly visible advocate for the inviolate supremacy of individual rights with her novels THE FOUNTAINHEAD (1943) and ATLAS SHRUGGED (1957). "The genius must have his freedom and his independence," she once wrote. Rand rejected Communism and fascism and fiercy defended a system in which economics have to fit man, not the other way round. "Great men can't be ruled." (from the Fountainhead Ayn Rand was born in St. Petersburg as the daughter of Fronz Rosenbaum, a chemist, and his wife Anna. She witnessed the Russian Revolution and the social upheaval, during which his father found work only in a Soviet store. At the age of 21 Rand graduated from the University of Petrograd in history with highest honors. After the family's shop was confiscated, they went to Odessa. In 1926 Rand moved to the United States, and took her surname from the typewriter she used, a Remington-Rand. Rand started to study English, working as a junior screenwriter and movie extra for Hollywood between the years 1926 and 1932. Starting as a filing clerk, she became an office head in wardrobe department. Rand wrote screenplays for Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. In 1934-35 in New York she was a free-lance script reader for RKO Pictures, then for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. In Hollywood she also met Frank O'Connor, an actor, whom she married. Rand's first novel, WE THE LIVING appeared in 1936, but her breakthrough work was courtroom play NIGHT OF THE JANUARY 16th (1934), where the audience was asked to determine the verdict.

Ayn Rand Red Pawn in 1932 to Universal Studios. Rand released The Night of January 16th , a play, in 1934, and published two commercially unsuccessful novels, We The Living (1936), and Anthem (1938). Rand's first major success came with the best-selling novel, The Fountainhead (1943), which was taken from publisher to publisher, collecting rejection slips as it went before it was picked up by the Bobbs-Merrill Company publishing house. The royalties and movie rights from this book made Rand famous and financially secure. In 1947, as a "friendly witness" in the House Committee on Un-American Activities, Rand testified against the activities of communist propagandists in Hollywood. Rand's testimony involved analysis of the 1943 film Song to Russia , which grossly misrepresented the socioeconomic conditions in the Soviet Union. The film presented Russia as an amazing paradise of comfort, beauty and plenty for everybody, when in reality the conditions of the average Russian peasant farmer were appalling. Apparently this 1943 film was intentional wartime propaganda, to keep the US public happy in their allegiance with Russia. When asked later about her feelings on the HUAC hearings, she described the hearings as "futile". In 1951 Rand met the young psychology student Nathaniel Branden, who had read her book The Fountainhead at the age of 14. Branden, now 18, enjoyed discussing Rand's emerging Objectivist philosophy with her. Branden's relationship with Rand eventually took on romantic aspects, though they were both married at the time. Rand published her "magnum opus"

AYN RAND (1905-1982) Face à l’altruisme sacrificiel et au tribalisme, Ayn Rand défend la vertu d’égoïsme , fondée sur La raison et la conscience. Pour elle, la vie de l’homme Est le fondement de toute valeur, et sa propre vie Est le but éthique de tout individu. Ayn Rand née en Russie et exilée aux Etats-Unis en 1926, a d’abord été scénariste à Holliwood, puis romancière, ( La Source vive, Atlas Shrugged , vendu à 9 millions d’exemplaires) et essayiste. Sa philosophie, l’objectivisme , d’inspiration aristotélicienne, a totalement renouvelé la pensée libérale contemporaine. EXTRAIT L’homme doit choisir ses actions, ses valeurs et ses buts en fonction de la norme de ce qui convient à l’homme, de façon à accomplir, conserver, réaliser cette valeur ultime, et cette fin en soi qu’est sa propre vie, et en jouir. Une valeur est ce pourquoi l’on entreprend une action pour acquérir et (ou) conserver quelque chose. Une vertu est l’action par laquelle on l’acquiert et (ou) la conserve.

What Art Is : The Esthetic Theory of Ayn Rand by Louise Torres Michelle Marder Kamhi Cultural icon Ayn Rand (1905-1982) was known as much for her philosophy as for her fiction. Her original theory of esthetics, which attacks many "masterpieces" of modernist art, is as combative and controversial as any of her work, but until now has received little serious scrutiny. In What Art Is , the authors demonstrate that Rand's ideas are supported by evidence from other academic fields. What is art? The arts establishment has a simple answer: anything is art if a reputed artist or expert says it is. Though many people are skeptical about the alleged new art forms that have proliferated since the early twentieth century, today's critics claim that all such work, however incomprehensible, is art. A groundbreaking alternative to this view is provided by philosopher-novelist Ayn Rand (1905 1982). Best known as the author of
