    Remembering William Butler Yeats:
    June 13, 1865–January 28, 1939

    187 words

    William Butler Yeats, the Irish poet, playwright, and politician, was born on this day in 1865. One of the greatest literary figures of the 20th century, Yeats’ life and work straddle the great divide between Romanticism and Modernism. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1923.

    In life and in art, Yeats rejected modern rationalism, materialism, and egalitarianism. He saw them as coarsening and brutalizing.

    Céline vs. Houellebecq

    Céline . . . and Houellebecq.

    1,511 words

    This essay is being published today to commemorate Céline’s 128th birthday. You can find all of Counter-Currents’ resources on Céline here.

    You don’t have to dig too deep through the past two decades of reviews to find that the French novelist-critic Michel Houellebecq is often compared to the late Louis-Ferdinand Céline. (more…)

    Remembering Richard Wagner
    (May 22, 1813–February 13, 1883)

    You can buy Collin Cleary’s Wagner’s Ring & the Germanic Tradition here.

    472 words

    Richard Wagner was born on May 22, 1813 in Leipzig in the Kingdom of Saxony. He died on February 13, 1883 in Venice. As an artist, intellectual, author, and cultural force, Wagner has left an immense metapolitical legacy, which is being evaluated and appropriated in the North American New Right. I wish to draw your attention to the following writings which have been published at Counter-Currents. (more…)

    Memelord Dalí
    Remembering Salvador Dalí
    (May 11, 1904–January 23, 1989)

    Philippe Halsman photographs Salvador Dalí, Decline of Hair on the Face, 1954.

    1,741 words

    It’s the most basic thing in the world: You can look at a rock, think it’s a bear, and run away. Or you can glimpse a bear, assume it’s a rock, and get eaten. Over time, evolution will select for seeing bears, when in fact, 99 times out of 100, it’s just rocks. Then clever fools will come and say that believing in a bear infestation is primitive superstition, and that they, taught by “science” and “logic,” have surmised that there are no bears among the rocks. In fact, bears do not even exist. (more…)

    Why I Write, Part II:
    Farewell to My Friend Robin

    Grand Duchess’ last Twitter profile pic.

    1,390 words

    Part I here

    Earlier this week, I woke to devastating news: A longtime friend of mine, Robin, whom I had met while I was an undergrad — at the same time that I first began writing things that would eventually find their way to Counter-Currents — had passed away. My old friend’s son contacted me by phone and informed me that she had left us a few days before, and that he had wanted to let me know since she’d mentioned our friendship to him previously.

    Earth Day Special

    406 words

    Today is Earth Day, which has been an occasion to call for conservationism and environmental protection since it was first celebrated in America with bipartisan support in 1970, in response to the Santa Barbara oil spill of 1969. Although in recent decades, environmentalism has come to be identified with the political Left, taking stewardship of the Earth and seeking harmony in the relationship between man and nature has traditionally been an issue of the Right.

    Remembering Jonathan Bowden
    (April 12, 1962–March 29, 2012)

    1,000 words

    Jonathan Bowden was born 60 years today, on April 12, 1962. He died on March 29, 2012, just short of his 50th birthday. Jonathan was a painter, novelist, essayist, playwright, actor, and orator. He was also a friend. His ideas and personality have had a real and permanent impact on my approach to New Right metapolitics. I wonder what Jonathan would have written in the last ten years. I wonder what he would have made of Donald Trump, the Alt Right, BLM, and other developments. We would have gained much from his insights and guidance. (more…)

    Vzpomínka na Reného Guénona

    René Guenón už jako šejk Abdalwáhid Jahjá

    967 slov

    English original here

    Od okultismu k esoterismu

    Guénon se narodil 15. listopadu 1886 do silně katolické rodiny z města Blois. V roce 1904, po vykonání pouti do Lurd, odešel studovat do Paříže. Ve studiích však postupoval jen velice zdráhavě: svou licence získal až ve svých devětadvaceti letech. O tři roky později pak neuspěl při agrégation z filozofie, když neobhájil doktorskou práci „Všeobecný úvod do studia hinduistických doktrín“. (more…)
