Esoteric
The German Mythological Landscape

Guido von List

Between 1877 and 1887, Guido von List published various journalistic works about his earlier travels and mystical reflections on Loci (local spirits), many of which appear in his famous Deutsch-Mythologische Landschaftsbilder of 1891, translated in this first English edition as The German Mythological Landscape.

This book takes us on a journey into a bygone era when the European landscape was still populated by mythical gods and demons. Here, von List examines the folklore of natural landmarks to discover its esoteric origin, revealing the intimate connection of traditional European spirituality to its native soil. 

With the insight of a true mystic, von List frames the indigenous character of ancient European polytheism in a new light, showing that its view of nature as the reflection of a higher spiritual world is borne out in the supernatural character of ancient folklore associated with physical features of the land itself.

Bringing together such varied topics as the secret Vehm society, werewolf and dragon legends, the folklore of mermaids, runic divination, and the esoteric meaning of fairy tales, von List paints a vivid and often humorous picture of his travels through the myth-haunted European countryside.

Liber Hermetis

Hermes Trismegistus

Liber Hermetis Trismegisti, commonly known as the Book of Hermes, is a foundational work of Hellenistic astrology that possesses a distinctly Egyptian character. The system of inherited knowledge it describes is older and more complex than anything found in other sources of Hellenistic astrology, and its treatment of the ancient Egyptian "decans" is by far the earliest in any astrological literature. This rare English translation is based on the only surviving Latin copies of a lost Greek original.

Rune Magic

Karl Spiesberger

Rune Magic is the authoritative work on runic esotericism by renowned mystic and scholar Karl Spiesberger. This book presents an encyclopedic overview of works by the great rune masters Guido von List, Siegfried Kummer, Rudolf Gorsleben and others, with additional material on the theory and practice of rune magic by Spiesberger himself. Included in this exhaustive study are descriptions of ritual practice, esoteric relationships, divination techniques, runic yoga, and much more. An invaluable guide to practical rune magic.

Spiesberger is a controversial figure in the history of runic esotericism as a result of his efforts to dissociate the runes from their original Aryan source, but his contribution to the field is nevertheless valuable. In effort to separate Spiesberger's ideological bias from the work itself, his irrelevant preliminary remarks to this book have been removed. Our hope is that the remaining presentation of work by his predecessors will be seen from a more objective and racially conscious viewpoint, as originally intended.

History
Positive Christianity

Cajus Fabricius

"There is much misconception in the world today with respect to the position of Christianity in the Third Reich, opinion being rife that an anti-Christian attitude or paganism is at the moment predominant in Germany… I for my part, have simply endeavoured as a theologian to give in these pages a clear and scientific exposition of the substance of Christianity in its relations to the substance of National Socialism" (from the preface).

The Legacy of Our Ancestors

Unknown

This book, first published in 1941, takes us far and deep back into the consciousness of our Nordic ancestors. What did they organize their lives around? What did they believe in? What message have they left us? The solemn tone of this book should not deceive the reader - it is based on scientific knowledge about the roots of a tradition that is still very much alive, although few people know how to explain its centuries-old significance. So let us learn to recognize ourselves - in the heritage of our ancestors.

The History of Anti-Semitism

Hervé Ryssen

For the vast majority of non-Jews, the history of the Jewish people reads like an endless succession of undeserved tragedies. To explain this phenomenon, Jewish intellectuals have concocted various elaborate theories, inevitably concluding that the history of the Jews is an extraordinary mystery, or the fabulous destiny of a chosen people. But as this highly informative work by the French scholar Hervé Ryssen shows, the reality is in fact much simpler.

Philosophy
The Philosophy of Art

Giovanni Gentile

Giovanni Gentile (1875 - 1944) was one of the major figures in the rise of idealism in Italy during the early twentieth century. A professor of philosophy at several Italian universities, Gentile also served in many political roles under Mussolini, for whom he acted as ghostwriter of "The Doctrine of Fascism" in 1931. He developed the system of philosophy known as actual idealism, in which the present act of thinking was the foundation of all human behavior. This book is Gentile's application of idealist philosophy to the problems of art and aesthetics.

The Nature of Man

Jacques de Mahieu

What is man? Almost half a century ago, an acute French thinker, who had emigrated to Argentina due to the vicissitudes of the catastrophe that was the Second World War in Europe, attempted to answer the question posed. The result is this book. Not everyone will agree with its conclusions - on the one hand, because it forces us to revise the paradigms that make up today's "politically correct" thinking, and on the other, because it simply forces us to think and reflect - but anyone truly seeking to understand human nature will find it invaluable.

Other
Kitezh

Munin Nederlander

This book is the first English translation of the remarkable legends of Kitezh, the Grail Castle of Russian mythology, and the heroic folk-tales of Russia. These legends bear a striking resemblance to the Arthurian and Parsifal cycles of northern Europe, likewise presenting an allegorical account of the initiatory path. The ultimate fulfilment of the vision of Kitezh depends on the recognition of the underlying unity of the opposite poles of East and West, and in that sense, it represents a promise of hope for East-West relations.

Orion

Bal Gangadhar Tilak

Best known for his controversial book on Aryan prehistory The Arctic Home in the Vedas, nationalist scholar Bal Gangadhar Tilak had previously outlined the basic ideas of that work in Orion, or Researches into the Antiquity of the Vedas. Here, Tilak argues that the Vedas are much older than previously believed, citing astronomical references to the constellation Orion that would place their composition at the earliest stages of recorded history. This is a facsimile edition.
