THE latest in a series of books dealing with the ideas of anti-modernist thinker and metaphysician, Julius Evola (1898-1974), this volume will provide the seeker with a panoramic view of the Italian's lifelong attempts to counteract the orchestrated assault on Traditionalist principles. From outsider art and political struggle right through to esotericism and the heroic path, Evola's views were expounded across the course of six decades and still continue to be discussed by commentators, intellectuals and academics half a century after his death. Chapters include:

* Hermann Wirth and Julius Evola: A Profound Cultural Relationship

* Julius Evola and the 'Night of the Long Knives'

* Liberation through Metanoia: Evola's Thoughts on Zen Buddhism

* An Interview with Julius Evola

* From Mafarka to Mitra; Evola and the Critique of Americanism

* The Man Who Rode the Tiger: The Esoteric Journey of Baron Julius Evola

* Evola on the Subversive Nature of Capitalism
