E. Michael Jones is a better and more modern writer to read. Also what he writes is more immediately useful. Don't waste your time on Evola

I would recommend Ernst Jünger, he was a renown soldier, his work isn't esoteric fluff and he's a great stylist and writer of fiction and non-fiction.

>What did he think of Fascism/NatSoc?
He wrote short works on both his reflections on fascism and NS.

His basic critique of them was that a true traditional society receives its justification from above, not below.
Below meaning from the people's popular support, which he saw as inferior. A state should represent a higher power and therefore be untouchable. People who break laws shouldn't be seen as mere criminals, but as sinners.

He's also very much into civilisational cycles and all that comes with that, take the Kali Yuga etc from Hinduism as an example.

He's a much more esoteric writer and I definitely suggest anyone that hasn't read him yet to read him, but certainly not as an introduction to right wing literature.

Junger is an interesting writer. Not many people go to war and find it to be thrilling

Best answer. My brother has a ton of Evolas books and when I started getting interested in right-wing literature I asked to borrow them. He advised against starting out with him but I said fuck you and did it anyway, and I had a really hard time getting into them. Came back after having a few other authors under my belt and I appreciated them a lot more.

>What did he think of Fascism?
A good start, but incomplete and ultimately a failure; too proletariat and socialist.
>NatSoc
Autistic about race

What are the other authors did you read prior to Evola? I have read many occult books and shit like Mein Kampf was very easy for me to understand but Evola's Revolt Against the Modern World is a bit hard for me to focus on and understand

I've read a lot of Evola, and if you struggle with Revolt Against the Modern World, you don't stand a chance with the rest of his works. Except maybe Men Among the Ruins, which I haven't read, so far eschewing it for his books underlining his more general worldview.
Of the ones I have read, Revolt... made the most sense and was the most internally coherent without additional reading, although it doesn't touch anywhere near the same depths as others.
With Evola, the path in life he describes is very much an experiential one, and a discipline. You can't simply read it and understand it, you have to experience first hand the phemomena he describes in order to understand them. I haven't, and I don't claim to understand everything he wrote about yet, but I have found with the books of his I have read previously, even if I didn't understand them when I initially read them, having retained at least some of their message in my mind, I would be repeatedly struck by moments of it all falling into place when I least suspected it, when I was instead concentrating on something entirely different.

>I want to have acceptance for my thoughts and enable myself in what is essentially a circle jerk with me, myself and I.
Why don't you start with the Greeks and then lets have this talk.

I would recommend you Nietzsche but his books in English are generally shit.
Zarathustra is a waste in the English version I've read.
