On the Marble Cliffs – a Worthy House review

By Charles Haywood As the twenty-first century grinds on, with history returning in spades, Ernst Jünger, German warrior and philosopher, grows more relevant every day. This book, On the Marble Cliffs, I view as his third book in an unrecognized trilogy advising us how we should conduct ourselves under different types of tyranny. It fits with two other books, more famous, The Forest Passage...

Worthy House review of Eumeswil

By Charles Haywood Ernst Jünger’s Eumeswil, one of the famous German’s last works, published when he was eighty-two years old, is often regarded as an exposition of libertarian thought. This is understandable, but completely wrong. Such a reading attempts to shoehorn concepts in which Jünger had little interest, or toward which he was actively hostile, into an exploration of unrelated themes...

Worthy House review of The Forest Passage

By Charles Haywood Ernst Jünger was one of the more fascinating men of the twentieth century.  Remembered in the English-speaking world primarily for his World War I memoir, The Storm of Steel, he was famous in Europe for a range of right-leaning thought spanning nearly eighty years (he lived from 1896 to 1998).  His output was prodigious, more than fifty books along with voluminous...

Various/verschiedene Ernst Jünger videos

After creating the English subtitles for the new ARTE/rbb documentary on Jünger, I spent some time reuploading some of the older documentaries and discussions already on my channel, but in unified and not split form. Nachdem ich die englischen Untertitel für die neue ARTE / rbb-Dokumentation auf Jünger erstellt hatte, habe ich einige Zeit damit verbracht, die älteren Dokumentarfilme und...

In the Trenches of History: the author Ernst Jünger – 2019 documentary with English subtitles!

Here’s a decent documentary film on the German Goethe Prize author Ernst Jünger, produced by rbb/ARTE. I went to some considerable trouble to create good English subtitles – hope they’ll allow more non-German speakers to learn something of this remarkable man. Source: ARTE.DE (2019); One of the better documentaries on Ernst Jünger, this relatively more balanced production is...

“Neunzig Verweht” Jünger documentary – now with English subtitles!

The popular Jünger documentary “Neunzig Verweht” has been given English subtitles and is now available along with the original German version on my Youtube channel, ErnstJuengerAnarch. On behalf of non-German speaking fans of Ernst Jünger’s work, many thanks go out to Stefan Jarl, who took on the tedious but evidently gratifying job of transcribing and then translating the...

Baden-Badener “Dichterclub” über Ernst Jünger – 1995

Ich lass die Literaten selbst reden – Hochhut und Herhaus mindestens haben was richtiges mitzuteilen. (Und ich bedanke mich bei Holger, der mir die originale VHS Aufnahme geschickt hat!) (Wenig überraschend, dass für Theweleit nur die “Annäherungen. Drogen und Rausch” interessant sind.  Nur in diesem Bereich sieht er aus, als ob auch er vielleicht etwas Erfahrung hat ;-)...

One Man’s War – Ernst Jünger in Paris

I just found this excellent documentary (in 8 parts)  juxtaposing Ernst Jünger´s life in Paris (via citations from his WWII Paris diaries “Strahlungen”) with Vichy propaganda shorts and other film footage from the same years. On the one hand, the typical illusions of mass propaganda, with its simplistic facade of normality, its one-sided righteousness, its certainty in the...

Neunzig Verweht – Dokumentarfilm über Ernst Jünger (1985)

Einen guten Dokumentarfilm von 1985 über Ernst Jünger habe ich kürzlich entdeckt – “90 Verweht” heißt er in Andeutung auf dem 90 Geburtstag Ernst Jüngers in selbem Jahr.  Eigentlich gefällt mir dieses besser als das andere, das man schon langem im Internet finden kann (Ich widerspreche mir nicht, 1977).
