    Thwarting Jewish Conquest:
    Solzhenitsyn’s Two Hundred Years Together
    Part 6 of 6

    3,162 words

    Part 1 here, Part 2 here, Part 3 here, Part 4 here, Part 5 here

    Much of the tremendous value of Solzhenitsyn’s Two Hundred Years Together rests in how it was written completely without rancor. Only a highly cynical or unreasonable person could call it anti-Semitic — that is, a work that professes animosity or anger towards Jews as a people. (more…)

    Orwell, Molotov, & the “Crisis of Capitalism”

    O’Brien (Richard Burton) demonstrates that 2 + 2 doesn’t always equal 4.

    2,306 words

    Did the international crises of 1947 and 1948 leave their mark on the writing of Nineteen Eighty-Four? I’ve spent a lot of time on this question, and so far as I can tell, the answer is – yes; but only obliquely. And George Orwell may not even have been conscious of the fact.

    Connolly, Burnham, Orwell, & “Corner Table”

    “In the torture scenes, he is merely melodramatic: he introduces those rather grotesque machines which used to appear in terror stories for boys.”

    Pan Gurdžijev

    Gurdjieff13-1-241,235 words

    English original here

    Jedinců, kteří nám pomáhají poukázat na znepokojivou cestu, po níž se ubírá existence velké většiny lidí, je za těchto zhoršených podmínek málo a hrozí, že budou zaměňováni se šarlatány.Do této kategorie patří bez nejmenší pochybnosti „tajemný pan Gurdžijev“, tedy Georgij Ivanovič Gurdžijev (1866 – 1949).

    The Yogi & the Commissar

    722 words

    Translated by M. P.

    Arthur Koestler, the author of Le zéro et l’infini (in English, Darkness at Noon), once played an important role in the Spanish Civil War as an agent of the Comintern. Through his writings, he set the tone of an anti-Francoist propaganda that has endured. Later, his deceptions made him an acute critic of Stalinism. (more…)

    Mr. Gurdjieff

    1,525 words

    Translated by Greg Johnson

    Czech translation here

    Individuals who help us put a finger on the disturbing way in which the existence of the great majority of people has been, metaphysically speaking, degraded, are rare in our times and run the risk of being confused with charlatans.
