Imperium: The Philosophy of History and Politics

Description

In a blaze of inspiration and without notes, Francis Parker Yockey wrote Imperium: The Philosophy of History and Politics in Brittas Bay, Ireland in the winter and early spring of 1948. Later that year, Imperium was published in two volumes by Westeuropa Press in London under the pen name Ulick Varange. Drawing upon the ideas of Oswald Spengler and Carl Schmitt, and dedicated to “The Hero of the Second World War” (Adolf Hitler), Imperium offers a philosophy of history, culture, and politics, as well as a synoptic overview of Second World War and the post-war world, to argue that the destiny of Western Civilization will be realized only by the creation of a pan-European imperial order. Although reviled by many National Socialists and fascists for its Spenglerian rejection of biological race, Imperium was praised by such luminaries as Julius Evola and Revilo P. Oliver and has exercised a profound influence on the imperialist strand of post-war European identitarianism, including such figures as Jean Thiriart and Guillaume Faye. ***PLEASE NOTE: While the cover is from the Centennial Edition of Yockey's Imperium, this file does not contain the exclusive content therein, which is only available in the printed copy.
