The Worker in the Thought of Ernst Jünger
Julius Evola

This essay presents and analyzes Jünger's main work from his early period, "Der Arbeiter," in which the echoes of his existential experiences as a highly decorated combatant were still alive, and which essentially addresses the problem of vision and the meaning of life in the modern age, and especially in the age of technology. For Junger, the worker is not a social class, and even less so the proletarian worker. He is a symbol.

In the 1950s, Evola tried unsuccessfully to have a translation of the book published; failing in his attempt, he decided to produce a long annotated paraphrase with updates necessary for the post-World War II period, in order to make it an autonomous and personal work. This new edition includes other of Evola's writings on Jünger published between 1943 and 1974, documenting the evolution of his point of view, and an extensive bibliography.

Galdr - Icelandic Rune Magic
Unknown

The two manunoscripts printed here were transcribed from earlier sources at the beginning of the 19th century, only 100 years after prosecutions for witchcraft had ceased in Iceland. Written around 1800, the first manunoscript in this book represents the largest collection of Icelandic magical staves in a single text, while the second manunoscript is dated ca. 1820 and shows the influence of contemporary European occultism. Included in the appendix is a large selection of magical runes and spells from various other Icelandic manunoscripts, with explanatory notes on their origins, development, and meaning.

The Ur Group
Giuliano Kremmerz

Giuliano Kremmerz began at a very young age to study and practice the ancient hermetic wisdom of Izar (Pasquale de Servis), under whose guidance he soon became one of the leading figures in the occult sciences. After a mysterious period of more than five years in an unknown location, he returned to Italy with the intention to spread the doctrine of Hermeticism, publishing the magazine “The Secret World” in 1897. Kremmerz subsequently founded the “Therapeutic Brotherhood of Miriam," and became involved with the UR Group during his later years. He eventually came into conflict with other Hermeticists who misinterpreted his work as promoting occultism, and was forced to leave Italy to settle in France, where he would end his days.

The Little Black Book
Julius Evola

"Julius Evola was a complex and multifaceted thinker in the sense that, during half a century of intense intellectual activity, he was interested, both theoretically and practically, in a wide range of questions, intellectual orientations, and activities... This should enable those who are interested to choose a particular aspect of his thought: often, however, the multiple themes intertwine and have caused some confusion. It has therefore become necessary, as a guide to Evola's ideas, to establish a kind of synthesis that allows, on the one hand, to have a general overview of his thought and, on the other, to make a choice. This is especially important for younger readers." (From the preface.)

The One-Eyed God
Kris Kershaw

This is much more than just solid, factual information about Odin and the people whose deity he was, for Odin was the god of the Einheriar, of the Viking mannerbunde, the furor Teutonicus and the war bands of the great folk wandering that shaped so much of the map of Europe as we know today. Here we have a broad and fascinating account of the Germanic ancestor cult, of the Wild Hunt, werewolves, dragon-slayers, Valhalla and Ragnorak. Odin is presented to us as a divinity who was central to a warrior society the ramifications of which went far beyond the revered One-Eyed God of battle and knowledge. Organized into three sections, we are carried in the last of these far beyond Germany to find parallel institutions surviving amongst the wider Aryan kindred – among the Celts, Romans, Slavs and Greeks, and still further, to the Indo-Aryans of Iran and the distant lands beyond the Indus, all sharing elements of a once common ancestral origin.

From Atlantis to the Sphinx
Colin Wilson

Prolific author and researcher Colin Wilson investigates the possibility of an advanced civilization in existence prior to recorded history, which served as the factual basis for legends of Atlantis. With these legends as a starting point, Wilson presents a convincing argument for the existence of a superior prehistoric civilization that was decimated by a great catastrophe, passing on the remnants of its knowledge to the earliest historical cultures. Taking inspiration from such varied figures as Schwaller de Lubicz, Giorgio de Santillana, Bal Gangadhar Tilak, and many others, Wilson explores what may have been a completely different knowledge system from that of modern man. The book sets out to reconstruct this ancient knowledge in a fascinating exploration of the remote depths of history; a groundbreaking attempt to understand how these long-forgotten peoples thought, felt, and communicated with the universe.

The Fourth Dimension
Charles Hinton

In The Fourth Dimension, mathematician and spiritualist Charles Hinton explores the capacity of human beings to perceive higher dimensions through a process of esoteric training. He argues that acquiring an intuitive perception of higher space requires that we rid ourselves of the ideas of "directionality" inherent in our position as observers of a three-dimensional world. Hinton calls the process "casting out the self", equates it with the process of sympathy, and implies the two processes are mutually reinforcing. In this sense, recognizing and eventually perceiving a higher dimension is not simply a mathematical exercise, but an important to point the way toward a higher realm of existence in both intellectual and genuinely spiritual terms.

Hieroglyphica
Horapollo

Written reputedly by an Egyptian magus in the fourth century A.D., the Hieroglyphica is an anthology of nearly two hundred “hieroglyphs,” or allegorical emblems, said to have been used by the Pharaonic scribes in representing natural and moral aspects of the world. The work describes how various kinds of natural phenomena, emotions, virtues, philosophical concepts, and human character types were symbolized by the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, providing detailed explanations for each individual emblem. Translated into Greek in 1505, it informed much of Western esoteric iconography from the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries.

Witchcraft and Sorcery
Charles Leland

Charles Godfrey Leland was an American folklorist whose research into the esoteric traditions of Europe and America contributed greatly to the resurgence of interest in paganism and magic during the 20th century. This book contains his most famous work, Aradia: The Gospel of the Witches (purported to descend from an ancient, hermetic tradition of witchcraft in Italy) as well as Gypsy Sorcery and Fortune Telling, a wide-ranging survey of Romani magical practices gathered from 19th-century sources and oral accounts.

Paradise Found
William F. Warren

The suggestion that primitive Eden was located at the Arctic Pole seems at first sight the most incredible of all wild and willful paradoxes. Yet the author was the first president of Boston University, and states in the preface that the book is not the work of a dreamer - it is a serious and meticulously researched attempt to present what is to the author's understanding the true and final solution to one of the greatest and most fascinating of all problems connected to the history of mankind.

First published in 1885, this book presents copious evidence that Atlantis was situated in the northern Arctic, noting that Hesiod, Virgil, and Homer all placed it at the "ends of the earth." The author's interpretation is further supported by evidence connecting Atlantis with related mythical locations such as Avalon, Eden, and the world mountain, as well as scientific research in various fields and the conclusions of his fellow scholars.

The Kindred Writings
Jost Turner

This collection of writings by Jost Turner, founder of the National Socialist Kindred and the Volksberg commune, is mostly taken from the newsletter he published for members of these groups. The subject matter follows the eclectic interests of the author, whose syncretic philosophy blends science and eastern mysticism with right-wing politics and the "back to the land" movement. Best known for his Arya Kriya system of esoteric yoga, Jost was also a tireless advocate for racial solidarity, as the writings in this book attest.
