Interview with Robert S. Hare

Published 2021-11-04.
Tell us about Robert Hare.
I create philosophy ebooks, in an editorial capacity I give the public what they really want.
You write about spiritual inspiration and philosophy. Which religions, and what areas of philosophy, do you like?
Hinduism, Taoism, and Confucianism. Native American spirituality and Paganism. Existentialism, Romanticism, and Transcendentalism.
You mention that your writing is "distilled prose." Can you expound on this?
1. With nonfiction, it's a disservice to the reader to fluff up one's book just to achieve a desired thickness.
2. Many of history's literary masters appreciated poetical prose, and so do I.
3. Book writers are sculptors. Some begin with a mound of clay (the first draft), and they add to it to create their art. Others, like myself, begin with a block of marble, and then chisel away the waste--to release our Davids.
My books suffer excessive editing--I must get them just right.
Your books seem to be addressing men; do you really write for men only?
No! To you ladies: for artistic reasons, I don't change my writing to gender neutral. When you read he, him, it also means she, her.
