Specific Instantiations
Although the archetype of the Randian hero appears in Rand's earliest work (notably in Night of January 16th's Bjorn Faulkner and We The Living's Leo Kovalensky), its best known examples appear in Rand's mature work, specifically in the novella Anthem (1938) and the novels The Fountainhead (1943) and Atlas Shrugged (1957).

Famous quotes containing the word specific:
“I was asking for something specific and perfect for my city,
Whereupon lo! upsprang the aboriginal name.
Now I see what there is in a name, a word, liquid, sane, unruly,
musical, self-sufficient,
I see that the word of my city is that word from of old,
Because I see that word nested in nests of water-bays, superb,
Rich, hemm’d thick all around with sailships and steamships, an
island sixteen miles long, solid-founded,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
