The Price of Heroes

For Homer, Athena is the coming together of every force necessary for heroic action to conquer the moment at hand. She is an ethical approach to life, one unburdened by a necessarily moralistic conformity to Form and Tradition. She is life in all of its glorious natural perfection, in direct opposition to the universal law […]

The Revolt? No, ma’am. I’m Revolting.

Drunken Exposition on Imperium Europa On October 30, 2013 Dana Roccapriore hosted me for an episode of his radio show Imperium Europa. Dana asked some familiar questions about my time in Rome and my essays published at Counter-Currents, but also allowed me space to expound upon my current work and its relation to the revolutionary […]

A sickness, perhaps

A sickness perhaps In the wake of my last paper published by Counter-Currents, a funny thing happened: I needed to get outside, to leave the books and computer, to allow my instincts something beyond toil. I suppose this is only funny in the context of my last paper (“Nietzsche, Physiology, and Transvaluation”), which was an […]

The Ardito’s 10 Commandments

1. Ardito! Your name means courage, force, and loyalty; your mission is victory at any cost. Be proud to show the whole world that nobody can resist the Italian soldier. Think of the jewels you are defending with your valor: the freedom of your families, the beauty of your country, and the wealth of your […]

Coming Soon: Nietzsche, Physiology, and Transvaluation

Counter-Currents will soon publish the concluding essay to my series with Nick Fiorello on the body and conceptual vitality. The series has been quite positively received, I must say, and was a grueling thrill to research and write. Despite my lead-in to this paper at the end of the last in the series, I left […]

Coming Soon: Overcoming the Bourgeois Mind and Body

Having just submitted part three of my series on vitality to Counter-Currents, I have two minutes in which to reflect upon my achievement. Modern men, after all, have a right to reflect honorifically when doing something of so little value, for we really have no right to think of ourselves in genuinely Homeric terms. Still, […]

Recently published: Lycurgus and the Spartan State

Counter-Currents has published the second part of my series on vitality. Sparta is of interest to men like us for obvious reasons. But, while 300 has made it’s warrior culture a central romantic narrative of the New Right, little is actually known about the content of the Spartan warrior state. Although this paper primarily seeks […]

Comments as Ochlocracy

This morning provided yet another example of the depth and beauty of life in the company of Nietzsche. Even though I have a small-fortune in books – grad school was just another way to feed my voracious appetite for reading, you see – none of them provide a gratification as instant and profound as I […]

Recently Published: Mussolini’s New Fascist Man

Counter-Currents has agreed to serialize the paper I have been co-writing with Nick Fiorello on the links between bodily and conceptual vitality. Part One, examining the ideas of the Fascist ethical and organic state, is now available. Part Two, which details the lengths to which Lycurgan Sparta went to ensure the nobility of its citizenry, […]
