evola_as_he_is Nov 29, 2004:Hello, According to 'The Road of Cinnabar', we know that Julius Evola planned to write a 'Secret History of the Secret Societies', but that this project never materialised, because the materials he had gathered for it during his stay in Vienna, where he had been invited by certain senior members of the S.S. to study Masonic documents, were destroyed during a bombardment of the city. The first evidence of Evola's interest in occult history, in what is now called 'conspiracy theory', comes from as far back as the period of the Ur&Krur group, with an article called 'Remarks on Counter- Initiation' (signed Arvo). Further evidence appears in the 1930's with the publication of 'The Instruments of the Occult War' in 1938 in La Vita Italiana, and in his translation into Italian of the work of Léon de Poncins and Emanuel Malinsky, 'La Guerre occulte'. He had reviewed this work three years before in La Vita Italiana. His interest was not to flag after the Second World War, since he published two articles on this theme in 1952 in Il Meridiano d'Italia, 'The Occult War' and 'Behind the Scenes of History', and the following year examined more systematically, in 'Men among the Ruins', the tactics, weapons, and goals of the "occult war", re- examining certain of the considerations he had already put forward in all the writings we have just mentioned. We present here the conclusion written by Evola for the 1961 edition (Le Rune): http://members.tripod.com/thompkins_cariou/id48.html Thompkins&Cariou
