Ernst Jünger was born on this day in 1895.
In commemoration, we are publishing my translation of Alain de Benoist’s important essay on Jünger: “Soldier, Worker, Rebel, Anarch: Types and Figures in Jünger’s Writings.”
We also we wish to draw your attention to the following works previously published on this site.

A great man and interesting author, am reading In storms of steel in German and recommend it to anyone interested in history. Also he had a positive view of Christianity and Catholicism, seing beyond the modernist egalitarian aspects of it, something more people should have.
OT: Greg, out of curiosity, how many languages do you speak/translate?
My French reading and translating skills are very good. My German reading skills are good, but my translation skills have gotten rusty, something I plan work on by translating some German texts. I have been teaching myself some Italian in the process of checking and revising some translations of Evola.
