Rudolf John Gorsleben
This translation of the Prose Edda by Rudolf John Gorsleben was first published in 1920 as a supplement to his translation of the Poetic Edda. Gorsleben translated the Eddas from Old Norse into German and provided an extensive commentary. His translation remains one of the most important German translations of the Edda to this day.


Oswald Spengler
“It is my conviction that the destiny of Man can only be understood by dealing with all the provinces of his activity simultaneously and comparatively… Nevertheless, in this book I venture to put forward some of the questions. They are a few among many. But they are interconnected, and for that reason may serve, for the time being, to help the reader to a provisional glimpse into the great secret of Man’s destiny.” (from the preface).

Martin Heidegger
This book embarks upon a provisional description of what Heidegger calls ‘Dasein,’ the field in which both being and time become manifest. Heidegger analyzes Dasein in its everydayness in a deepening sequence of terms: being-in-the-world, worldhood, and care as the being of Dasein. The course ends by sketching the themes of death and conscience and their relevance to an ontology that makes the phenomenon of time central.




















Jan de Vries
The conclusions arrived at by the author of this extensive dissertation on the problem of Loki are in great part of a negative character. Here, de Vries refutes the identification of Loki with Prometheus based on etymological evidence pointing to Loki as god of malice and destruction.













Ramon Lull
Ramon Lull (circa 1232-1316), a key figure in medieval literature, was a multifaceted personality who pursued literature, philosophy, theology, and the natural sciences with passion and skill. His Treatise on Astronomy interprets the art of astrology as an abstract logic wherein delineation is at least partly reduced to a calculus of manipulating and combining letters. By this approach, Lull achieves surprisingly elegant derivations of planetary combinations, and planet/sign combinations, with a specific focus on the nature and order of the elemental triplicities. This is a facsimile edition.

Arthur Posnansky
Arthur Posnansky (1873–1946) was a Viennese adventurer and scholar who wrote prolifically about the civilizations of ancient Mesoamerica. In this, his final and most important book, Posnansky argues that Tihuanaco was constructed approximately 17,000 years ago by American peoples, although not by the ancestors of those then living in the area. This is a bilingual English-Spanish edition.

Friedrich Doellinger
For two millennia, the Jews have been described as the Chosen People of God, from which Christianity and its exalted founder emerged. However, recent discoveries have shed light on the origins of Judaism and the Bible which prove these descriptions to be a historical falsehood. In Baldr and Bible, Friedrich Doellinger conducts thorough historical and archaeological research to uncover the true identity of Jesus and the ultimate nature of Christianity.

Ahnenerbe Society
Germania was the official magazine of the Ahnenerbe Society. Intended for a popular audience, it featured articles on European cultural history, news of archeological discoveries, and essays on comparative religion, to name but a few examples of its incredibly diverse and profoundly enlightening material. This two-volume set contains all twenty-four issues from the years 1933 and 1938.

Friedrich Marby
Available for the first time in English, this complete set of works by the renowned Armanist scholar Friedrich Bernhard Marby describes a theory of energetic correspondence based on the esoteric principles of Armanism, and its practical application through a system of physical and spiritual exercises.

Herman Wirth
Archaeological work has enabled Europeans to plunge into their past, going back a long way in time to the hypothetical beginnings of history. Yet in the eyes of classical archaeologists, much of the incredibly complex iconography from Nordic prehistory was no more than “playful doodles”. Wirth rejects the interpretation of these signs as purely symbolic in origin, and only much later becoming phonetic signs, proposing instead that such iconographic systems represent a complete written language. Following the linguistic evolution of this alphabet, Wirth traces the origins and development of the Nordic people, their culture, and beliefs. A complete explanation of Wirth’s system is included in the preface to this edition. This book is a work in progress.

Herman Wirth
In his Primordial Mind, Herman Wirth defends the legitimacy of the Oera Linda book by performing comparative etymological and iconographic analyses of prehistoric European cultures to support his claim that not only is it an authentic document, but that its origin can be traced back to the earliest religions – and possibly further. In doing so, he refutes the accusation of his political opponents that such a claim is antithetical to the spirit of the Ahnenerbe program. This book is a work in progress.

Guido von List
This rare work outlines von List’s exhaustive reconstruction of Germanic paganism in the context of perennialist philosophy and comparative religion. Here, von List provides a compelling analysis of prehistoric European religion as an example of “Ur-monotheism” – the primordial tradition shared by all pre-Abrahamic faiths. Among several essays included in the appendix is a unique interpretation of the relationship between Christianity, Buddhism, and the Armanist school of Germanic polytheism.

Herman Wirth
Decades before mainstream science rediscovered his ideas, co-founder of the Ahnenerbe society Herman Wirth proposed that all Indo-European religions share a common basis in the astronomical calendar. This groundbreaking work of comparative mythology postulates that the ancient Nordic calendar represented the same principles of cosmic order on which all other pagan religions were based, and which may thus be understood as a “pre-scientific technical language” of metaphysical spirituality.


Franz Altheim
“A History of Roman Religion” is a comprehensive overview of the degeneracy of Aryan Rome into semitized catholicism. Written in 1938 it traces this decline and fall from the origin of Rome to its demise.
Franz Altheim (6 October 1898 – 17 October 1976) was a German classical philologist and historian who specialized in the history of classical antiquity. During the 1930s and 1940s, Altheim served as a member of Ahnenerbe, a think tank controlled by the Schutzstaffel (SS), the paramilitary wing of the NSDAP, and as a spy for the SS.



Seneca
On Benefits, written between 56 and 64 CE, is a treatise addressed to Seneca’s close friend Aebutius Liberalis. It is the longest of Seneca’s works dealing with a single topic – specifically, the giving and receiving of gifts and how to express gratitude appropriately.

Miguel Serrano
A compilation of short articles by Miguel Serrano, with additional interviews and excerpts from various sources never before published in English. The selected works cover a wide range of subjects, providing an introductory overview of Serrano’s esoteric philosophy. This is a facsimile edition.

Niccolo Machiavelli
Machiavelli’s treatise on the nature of rulers has been regarded as a classic of political philosophy for almost 500 years, due to his all-encompassing understanding of men in power, and the common traits, motives and struggles which characterize them.

Julius Evola
First published in 1928, Evola’s Pagan Imperialism is the product of his early radicalization and disillusionment with liberal “progress.” In addition to some novel arguments against the liberal worldview, it contains insightful analyses and critiques of modern Christianity, nationalism, democracy, and other aspects of Western civilization.

Sir George Cox
First published in 1870, this book was immediately established as one of the definitive works on comparative mythology. From the Introduction: “The purpose of this work is to exhibit clearly and with sufficient fullness the general characteristics of Aryan mythology.” This is a facsimile edition.



Heraclitus
Heraclitus of Ephesos (c. 500 BC) was an early pre-Socratic philosopher who believed that life was characterized by strife and change. The surviving fragments of his work suggest that he understood change as synonymous with life, and stressed the importance of waking to the actual meaning of one’s life.



Giovanni Gentile
Through his work at the Critica journal, Gentile sought to re-establish the tradition of philosophical studies in Italy. The present work outlines his view on the danger of naturalism in popular thought and the significance of idealistic philosophy as a necessary response. This is a facsimile edition.


Friedrich Nietzsche
Nietzsche’s personal notebooks, kept by him during his most productive years, offer a fascinating glimpse into the work and mind of a great thinker. Compiled from these notebooks, The Will to Power is arguably one of the most influential books of the past hundred years.

Oswald Spengler
A sweeping account of Western culture by a historian of legendary intellect, this is an astonishingly informed, forcefully eloquent, thrillingly controversial work that advances a world view based on the cyclical rise and fall of civilizations.

Giovanni Gentile
In this important philosophical work, Gentile speculates about the relationship of phenomena and human consciousness. He proposes that our world is ultimately a structure of consciousness, and exists only through consciousness rather than independent of it. This is a facsimile edition.
