A superb introductory essay from Dr. H.T. Hansen — equal parts biography and political history. He navigates the minefield of Evola's political life with great precision and fairness, pulling no punches while never descending into the kind of lazy condemnation that overlooks his singular intellectual contributions.

Now on to the work itself...

Quoted from Evola's SS file:

'The ultimate and secret motivation for Evola's theories and plans must be sought in a revolt of the old aristocracy against today's world... This confirms the initial German impression: that we are dealing with a "reactionary Roman." His political plans for a Romano-Germanic Imperium are of a utopian character and moreover very apt to cause ideological confusions.'

LOL

The principle and foundation of the new state must be the organic idea. Of course, this ideal implies the affirmation not only of the concept and right of the nobility, but also of the monarchy... it must be renewed, strengthened, and dynamized as an organic, central, absolute function that embodies the might of power and the light of the spirit in a single being
