Aleister Crowley by Charles Krafft
432 words
Aleister Crowley was an English poet, novelist, painter, and mountaineer who is most famous as an occultist, ceremonial magician, and founder of the religion and philosophy of Thelema. But ironically Crowley’s supposed Satanism and Black Magic are far less frightening to most people than his politics. For Aleister Crowley was also a man of the Right.

Il est important pour les Nationalistes Blancs de visualiser ce à quoi la victoire ressemblerait. Il y a en réalité deux réponses à cette question. La réponse ultime est notre vision de l’Utopie Blanche, la société que nous voulons créer. Mais avant de construire l’Utopie Blanche, nous devons remporter la victoire sur le présent système politique. Cette victoire nous donnera le pouvoir de créer notre société idéale, et elle pourrait survenir plusieurs décennies avant que l’Utopie Blanche soit réalisée. (more…)

L’Alternative Right n’a pas d’essence, mais elle a une histoire, une histoire qui commence et finit avec Richard Spencer. L’histoire comporte quatre chapitres.

Savitri Devi (1905–1982[1]) was born Maximine Julia Portaz in Lyons, France, of English, Italian, and Greek ancestry.[2] She was a highly gifted and eccentric child. Early on, she embraced vegetarianism and animal rights out of a strong aesthetic revulsion to slaughter and other forms of cruelty to animals. (more…)
Roy Campbell
1,562 words
Roy Campbell was a South African poet and essayist. T. S. Eliot, Dylan Thomas, and Edith Sitwell praised Campbell as one of the best poets of the inter-war period. Unfortunately, his conservatism, Nietzscheanism, and Catholicism, as well as his open contempt for the Bloomsbury set and his participation in the Spanish Civil War on the Fascist side, have led his works being consigned to the memory hole.

It seems appropriate to announce the rebirth of the Savitri Devi Archive on Savitri Devi’s 116th birthday. The Savitri Devi Archive is a repository for information on the life and work of the philosopher, religious thinker, and activist Savitri Devi, born Maximine Portaz (1905–1982).
Savitri Devi was a unique and brilliant personality. When I first heard of her in 2000, almost none of her books were in print or available at any price. After her death, many of her unpublished writings and letters were lost due to carelessness, indifference, and hostility. (more…)

Savitri Devi was a philosopher, a religious thinker, and a tireless polemicist and activist for the causes of animal rights, European pagan revivalism, Hindu nationalism, German National Socialism, and — after the Second World War — pan-European racial nationalism. She also sought to found a religion, Esoteric Hitlerism, fusing National Socialism with the Traditionalism of René Guénon and Julius Evola. All told, she was one of the most extraordinary personalities of the 20th century. (more…)
