Remembering Julius Evola:
May 19, 1898–June 11, 1974

In commemoration of his birthday, I wish to draw your attention to the following resources. Read more …

It has been claimed that “never since Orpheus has there been a musician whose music affected so vitally the life and art of generations.”[1] Read more …

Honoring Doug Christie

James Holbeyfield

1,564 words

Douglas Hewson Christie died on March 11th, 2013 at the age of 66. He was among the greatest defense lawyers of his generation, in Canada or any other country, and his greatness was founded on two piers: courage and honor.

In his eulogy for his father, Doug’s son Cadeyrn has said that his father was meant for the battlefield, and in another age would have fought with sword and shield, but in our age, his battlefield was the courtroom.

Remembering Ezra Pound:
October 30, 1885 to November 1, 1972

677 words

“A slave is one who waits for someone else to free him.” — Ezra Pound

One of the ongoing projects of the North American New Right is the recovery of our tradition. One does not have to go too far back before one discovers that every great European thinker and artist is a “Right Wing extremist” by today’s standards.
