In commemoration of the birthday of Filippo Marinetti, I would like to draw your attention to several writings on this website.
First, there is Marinetti’s “Futurist Manifesto” of 1909.
Second, there is Kerry Bolton’s essay “Filippo Marinetti.”
Third, there is Ted Sallis’ review essay on Mark Antliff’s Avant-Garde Fascism.
There are two excellent English language editions of Marinetti’s principal works:
1. Selected Poems and Related Prose
2. Critical Writings

I think that we can still extol “the beauty of violence in the service of reason,” as a writer of the Cercle Proudhon put it. However, such violence would have to take the form of fourth rather than second or third generation warfare.
