The following is a late writing by Ernst Jünger, published in 1993, a prognosis for the coming century.
Brilliant thoughts, thank you for making them available in English!
Thanks for your comment. A writing worthy of a larger audience I think.
Indeed—I very much agree!
Thank you for making this available.
Junger's prognosis seems... dim.
Dim, but also hopeful.
"I perceived your splendor, Lord, from afar,
I would like to link heart to it in advance,
And, Sublime Creator, I would so much like
To give you the gift of my negligible life."
A hymn he refers to regarding the apocalyptic dangers of technology.
I think from the Hervier interview, I did not find the hymn itself, but perhaps in the original language it could be searched. I can look for it.
Incredible
