What are some good modern essayists?

I've been reading Schopenhauer, Ludovici, Seneca, de Maistre, de Montaigne, Emerson, but nothing written relatively recently.

I was recommended Sloterdijk, but I'm looking for more.

I like your recommendations, have some of mine:
Ernst Jünger, Armin Mohler, Caspar von Schrenck-Notzing, Alain de Benoist, Karl Steinbach, Revilo Pendelton Oliver.

U-um, I enjoyed the archdruid report.
>>
Christopher Morley is excellent
>>
I love Gass's essay writing style so much. On Being Blue is a wonderful work of art as well as making you consider such a wide range of topics. Derrida's writing style takes some getting used to, but the way he writes essays is certainly unique and interesting

John D'agata for recent stuff

Oakeshott.
Baudrillard.
Von Kuehnelt-Leddihn.
McLuhan.
Borges.
Voegelin.
Ortega y Gasset.
de Benoist.

Chesterton and Belloc too, but many of their writings are more than 100 year old now.

Very interesting recommendation. I was browsing though some old notes of mine, saw the name Armin Mohler several times. Will follow up on this.

Gonna follow this thread watchfully.
