    Default Who was Augusta?

    The information on her is kinda sparse considering she is/was arguably the most influential socionist. (she was the first, no less)

    Who was Augusta as a person? Has there been a biography of her yet?

    Yes, I just updated this page. It has basically everything I know about her.

    I also have a video clip of her in Russian, but the quality is poor and I have to figure out a way to shorten it. Maybe it could be put on YouTube.

    In Duesseldorf, Rick commented that in videos, Augusta seemed very similar to Ayn Rand.

    @hmmkr:

    I too have read that article. (the one on personality) The topic of it seemed to me (from what I could parse from the English Google translation) specifically the relationship of socionics to personality. She makes a distinguishment between type and personality; though admittedly she also tries to see everyone around her as types in various situations. (this seems to be a problem for alphas... I'm having the same difficulties myself.) She does acknowledge a cultural aspect to personality, however, which is distinct from type.

    I'll be posing excerpts shortly to explain what I mean.

    If you watch the older interviews of Ayn Rand on youtube, it should be clear as to why a thorough analysis of her views points to Alpha>Beta.
