Dominique Venner

English version here

En 1814, al final de las Guerras Napoleónicas, Benjamin Constant escribió con alivio: “Hemos llegado a la era del comercio, la era que debe necesariamente reemplazar a la de la guerra, tal como la era de la guerra tuvo que necesariamente preceder.” ¡Iluso Benjamin! Asumió demasiado amplia la idea del progreso indefinido apoyando el advenimiento de la paz entre hombres y naciones.

The Warrior & the City

Dominique Venner

717 words

Translated by Greg Johnson

Translations: Portuguese, Spanish

He took up the very widespread idea of indefinite progress supporting the advent of peace between men and nations.
