Gianfranco Drioli
The Ahnenerbe: esoteric order or scientific organization? This question, through the analysis of the research of exponents such as Karl Maria Wiligut, Herman Wirth and the chronicle of its scientific expeditions, the first part of Gianfranco Drioli’s articulate work tries to give an answer. But what remained of the Ahnenerbe after the war? We find the answer in the second part of his work, where the author examines those researches that were continued either by former members of the organization, or by scientists who took up its themes and methodologies, such as Jurgen Spanuth and Jacques De Mahieu. Julius Evola, Savitri Devi, Miguel Serrano and an interview with a mysterious Ahnenerbe associate in exile conclude this informative and curious work.
