Her books include A Warning to the Hindus (1939), L’Etang aux lotus (The Lotus Pond) (1940), A Son of God: The Life and Philosophy of Akhnaton, King of Egypt (1946), later republished as Son of the Sun (1956), Akhnaton: A Play (1948), Gold in the Furnace (1952), The Lightning and the Sun (1958), Pilgrimage (1958), Impeachment of Man (1959), Long-Whiskers and the Two-Legged Goddess (1965), Souvenirs et réflexions d’une Aryenne (Memories and Reflections of an Aryan Woman) (1976), and And Time Rolls On: The Savitri Devi Interviews (2005).

In Memory of May 1st, 1945

251 words

Great Eagle, fold your wings awhile
And turn away your eyes;
In smoke and thunder, flame and blood
Your Best and Highest dies;
And all His happy Land,
His great emprise,
A shattered wreck of ugly ruin lies.

Paulo de Tarso, ou Cristianismo e Judaísmo

3,018 words

Ninguém há que se ponha a estudar seriamente a história do cristianismo, sem deixar-se impressionar pela quase completa inexistência de documentos concernentes aquele cujo nome está intimamente ligado a esta grande religião mundial, a saber: Jesus Cristo. Não sabemos sobre ele, senão o que nos é falado nos evangelhos – vale dizer: praticamente nada; isto porque, se os mesmos são pródigos em relatar-lhes as passagens miraculosas, nada dizem que nos esclareça sobre sua pessoa e, sobretudo, sobre sua origem.

Um det er eitt faktum som ikkje kan unngå å gjera inntrykk på alle personar som seriøst studerar historien til kristendomen, so er det det nesten komplette fråveret av dokument um den mannen som den store internasjonale religionen ber namnet til, nemleg Jesus Kristus. Read more …

Incurable Decadence

9,707 words

Translated by R. G. Fowler

“No longer gigantic, like unto the Spirits, proud and free,
But servile, crawling, crafty, cowardly, envious,
Frozen flesh where nothing stirs or trembles any more,
Man will swarm anew under the skies.”
—Leconte de Lisle (“Cain,” Barbaric Poems)

“An impure air embraces the globe stripped
Of the woods that sheltered it in their sublime mantle;
The mountains, under vile feet, have lowered their summits;
The mysterious heart of the ocean is defiled.”
—Leconte de Lisle (“The Anathema,” Barbaric Poems) Read more …

Paul of Tarsus, or Christianity & Jewry

3,462 words

Norwegian translation here

If there is a fact that cannot fail to impress all persons who seriously study the history of Christianity, it is the almost complete absence of documents regarding the man whose name the great international religion bears, namely Jesus Christ. Read more …

The Religion of the Strong

Paul Herrmann, "Die Fahne" (The Banner)

8,018 words

Translated by R. G. Fowler

“Enochia, monstrous City of the Manly,
Den of the Violent, Citadel of the Strong,
Who have never known fear or remorse . . .”

—Leconte de Lisle (“Cain,” Barbaric Poems)

If I had to choose a motto for myself, I would take this one—“pure, dure, sûre,” [pure, hard, certain]—in other words: unalterable. Read more …

Cosmotheism in Savitri Devi

1,169 words

Arno Breker, "Bereitschaft" ("Readiness")

Editor’s Note:

R. G. Fowler published the following extracts from Savitri Devi’s Defiance under the title “The Superman: The Purpose of the Universe, the Meaning of Life.” I am reprinting it here because of the resemblance to William Pierce’s philosophy of cosmotheism. For more on cosmotheism, click here. Defiance is available for purchase here. Alex Kurtagi?’s review is here. Read more …
