Greg Salmieri and Ben Bayer review the discussion from Episode 6 on October 10th, especially questions about the title of the chapter (“The Non-Commercial”), Rearden’s view of nature compared to the traditional doctrine of “the sublime,” and other miscellaneous questions about the chapter.

The Ayn Rand Institute invites you to join The Atlas Project, an eight-month, chapter-by-chapter, online discussion of Atlas Shrugged. To facilitate the discussion, ARI will host a weekly interactive broadcast on Facebook Live led by experienced teachers to help readers explore the intricate plot and abstract themes of Rand’s most philosophical novel. Each episode will subsequently be published on YouTube.
