“By way of such aspects, we see—it is clear—in the Middle Ages an awakening of the true forces already acting in Nordic-Aryan Romanity, of its true solarity, propitiated from such a resurgence or rebirth from a new contribution of Aryan blood…” Gornahoor translating Evola, on Cesaro Indeed, a tremendously sophisticated … Continue reading
How Keats May Have Died – in memory
Came he among the whispering wood, or in the golden meads, Still he holds the cypress crown, which gold Apollo gave. Walked he in stormy wind about or in the laze of noon, Yet still he sings the song around, eternal end too soon. He rose above the blue sky … Continue reading
