In this beautifully written and brilliantly reasoned collection of essays, Ayn Rand throws new light on the nature of art and its purpose in human life. Once again, Rand demonstrates her bold originality and her refusal to let conventional ideas define her sense of the truth.

Rand eloquently asserts that one cannot create art without infusing it with one's own value judgments and personal philosophy - even an attempt to withhold moral overtones only results in a deterministic or naturalistic message. Because the moral influence of art is inescapable, she argues, art should always strive to elevate the human spirit.

The Romantic Manifesto takes its place beside The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged as one of the most important achievements of our time.

So much nonfiction is just incoherent and obscure. This however is very well written. I do not agree with Rand on many topics but I respect her being honest and clear in expressing her opinion. As I was listening I was thinking this is not the Romanticism I was taught in school. Then I noticed Rand admitting that her definition of Romanticism was not the same as others. It is a bit dated. I think I detected a note of humor in the voice of the narrator when Rand recommends the short stories of O Henry.

Every time I consume Rand, I am reinvigorated. Nobody moves me, motivates me, and inspires me like she does. The narrator was perfect. Easy listening. I couldn't stop.

this book is an excellent explanation of what art is and is not. it explains how art is the crowning piece to philosophy. the purpose of art is to show and inspire man to the highest possible good.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Romantic Manifesto to be better than the print version?

Yes. Certain topics can be tough to navigate by text. Hearing it clearly and quickly i imagine will help with understanding some of the complexities involved in this philosophy.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Ayn Rand of course.

Have you listened to any of Bernadette Dunne’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No. She was enjoyable.

If you could give The Romantic Manifesto a new subtitle, what would it be?

What Art Could Be

Any additional comments?

I dont know much in the area of the arts, but this book made me feel like i could still relate to it. why art is essential to man's existence and how the quality and consideration of what art is and can be should strive to convey real world meaning and validity yet present an idealized version of life as an artistic vision of what to strive for. I would be interested in hearing classically taught artists view on the subjects in this work. Rand maintains Art is not or should not be relative subjective hodgepodge but universal focused intention.

Understanding Art

The part on literature is the best, which is about 3/5 of the book by length. The part on music and dance is the worst, which is about 1/5 of the book by length. The rest part of the book is on paintings which is OK. You will need to have read "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged" both by Ayn Rand to better appreciate this "Romantic Manifesto" which uses the former two as examples on many occasions.

Good book . . .

Her ideology is very hard to contradict, even though the average person may find it somewhat hard to live by. Her philosophy on human existence is worth striving for.

As a Ayn Rand fan I have read many of her shorter and smaller philosophical books.This one tops them off! Reading her views on the art is just breathtaking! She words it in such a way no one else can. Highly recommend, assuming you have already read Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead. Do not read this until you have read those.

Page turner !!

I had already read the book in paperback, but the studio version helped me experience a whole new perspective.

The Goal of My Writing

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The final verison of Roark is much stronger than the attempted version.

Excellent art analysis of art, done artfully.

Muy muy interesante. A pesar del necesario lenguaje filosófico (es un libro de filosofía del arte), resulta ameno e incluso engancha.
Ayuda a ver las artes, especialmente la literatura, desde un nuevo punto de vista para mi y aclara muchas cosas.
La lectura de Bernadette Dunne es magnífica y se entiende muy bien, incluso para un nivel de inglés como el mío que no es precisamente nativo.
Absolutamente recomendable.
Una lástima que no estoy en español, eso sí.

Apasionante y clarificador
