Guy who called you a yuppie here. Good to know that I was right.
> Its beauty. Stay jealous :^)
I'm not jealous. My collection is significant in its own right, and I'm being very understated in how I word that. Some of the hardbacks that I've bought have been incredibly expensive, and I've bought many. Your issue is that you're approaching this like some hapless nouveau riche who thinks he can buy his way into artistic sensibility. It doesn't look like you have any discernment to speak of when it comes to literature. But if you want to tell yourself that I'm stewing and in the deep throes of envy you are most welcome to.
>I love my nice things and so does everyone who visits.
Literal fashion reader who doesn't have the first clue as to what he's doing.

I believe his definition of the concepts of Being & Becoming were his answers to Man's attitude to the world, as the world of becoming, and the world beyond as the unconditioned world of being, where Evola designates the realm of metaphysical principles. So then to focusing merely on the world of becoming and taking it as all there subjects the will of the individual to the interplay of various external forces. Being compelled to find something beyond it is something that not all will take up, for various reasons, though many will probably recognise the futility of desire and tragedy of existence to varying degrees throughout their lives.
