Been seeing a ton of Junger threads lately. Very surprising no one posted the ultimate testament against Junger and radical conservatism in Germany. The author of this thesis absolutely exposed Junger and all conservatives for what they are.

The only reason Junger and other Germans became radical conservatives is because of a craving for friendship. This dissertation proves that Junger and others only became conservatives out of anxiety.

Curious to hear your thoughts on this. Junger has been exposed. Once all of you have finished reading it this will likely be the final thread dedicated to Junger.

His journals during ww2 is the best he has written after Storm, if you want novels then read Heliopolis or Eumeswil. If drug-themed essays and anecdotes sounds interesting then you should read Approaches: Drugs and Intoxication. Visit to Godenholm and The Glass Bees are really god novellas of his

Jünger won't be ruined by a handful of 'far right' men reading him, you must know that was the case before ww2 also considering your reply. Evola's metaphysical research and work isn't ruined because people took interest in his politics which wasn't very good although they all quite misunderstood it since they likely didn't even read him but instead just a horribly written wikipedia page that had been changed from its original state and just got the word superfascist and him encouraging rape out of it, the latter point practically being a lie from some garbage article as a source.
Jüngers later work and his archetypes are fantastic and he'll only get more recognition as more of his work gets translated, I can imagine him gaining as much of an acknowledgement as Martin Heiddeger in the following years. An author doesn't get ruined, and if he gets misunderstood it won't be for more than like ~5 years.
These guys exclusively reading Storm of Steel and On Pain will forget him or read his latter work and then either dismiss him or come closer to self realization.

I just started reading Das Abenteuerliche Herz and it's great! Vivid allegories, subtly disturbing nightmarish atmospheres and descriptions of natural beauty - that is where he shines.

Do you like Jünger?
