Ellis\u003cbr\u003eintroduction by Benjamin DeCasseres\u003chr\u003eMr. Ellis has been a student of the philosophy of Jules De Gaultier for many years, and in this brochure he has given to the English-speaking world for the first time a complete survey, of the Frenchman’s philosophy of Bovarysm and his great doctrine of universal illusion as the condition of life, together with an exposition of his cosmic aesthetic: life is justified by its spectacular and dazzling beauty without beginning, without end, without ethical purpose. Hence Mr. Ellis’ compound word, “art-philosophy.” “De Gaultier,” says Mr. Ellis, “retains the intellectualism and the disillusioned joy of living of Nietzsche, his Apollinism and his Dionysism. With De Gaultier, the sadness of life is transformed into an aesthetic sensibility, eager to perpetuate the spectacle, to evoke it, to describe it.” His score of books sustain an altitude as high and as serene—serene, above all, when viewing the catastrophes of Man—as Spinoza or Shakespeare. The Beethoven who will put in symphonic form the core of De Gaultier’s vision of God as Supreme Artist of Chance and Beauty, unallied to messianic hopes, has not yet been born. -Benjamin DeCasseres","brand":"Union of Egoists","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31299398991941,"sku":"SA1110","price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/0461\/0117\/products\/SA1110.jpg?v=1585490162"},{"product_id":"anathema-litanies-of-negation","title":"ANATHEMA: Litanies of Negation","description":"\u003cp\u003eAuthor: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/underworldamusements.com\/collections\/benjamin-decasseres\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBenjamin DeCasseres\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword: \u003cstrong\u003eEugene O'Neill\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfterword: \u003cstrong\u003eKevin I.

Henry M. Tichenor was a writer and magazine editor prominent in the socialist and freethinking movements during the Progressive Era of American history. His writings frequently condemned organized religion, Christianity in particular, as a tool used by the upper classes to maintain control over the working class. In the realm of opposition to religion, he has been ranked beside Clarence Darrow and Madalyn Murray O’Hair as a leading American freethinker of the twentieth century. In “The Sorceries and Scandals of Satan”, Tichenor employs the figure of Satan as a literary symbolic character to represent rebellion against tyranny — a symbolism with a robust tradition in literature and political works. In his book, the character symbol of Satan is employed as a foil against which to compare the horrors of organized religion, especially Christianity More importantly, however, Tichenor reminds us all that there was a time in American history that open skepticism and opposition to religion was a major facet of social political discourse so American’s certainly should not shy away from it today.

Traditional and innovative at the same time, and expressed in a myriad of styles, these new poems demonstrate that the runes are much more than an object of idle antiquarian curiosity.

Wilson suggests that a Mundus Imaginalis (world or images or imagination) exists. In this world, there are imaginal personae or archetypes. This idea of an imaginal world comes from the work of comparative religion scholar Henry Corbin. Imaginal means that something exists in the world of images and archetypes—it does not mean imaginary. For Bey (and Corbin), we can have relations with this realm. In his discussion of archetypes, Bey suggests there are three realms—the level of oneness of being, the imaginal level, and the material level. ...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs in Jungian theory, Bey maintains that archetypes express structural universals of the human condition. For this reason, lost religious and indigenous traditions can often be reconstructed by interpreting them through archetypes. Such texts are not fictional, so much as polemics for imaginal initiation, which manifest a process of such initiation. Imaginal links are actual—both material and spiritual—and not simply symbols or metaphors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Other","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47044281729307,"sku":"PHILOCHAOS","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/0461\/0117\/files\/philosophy_of_chaos_8b21beb1-c708-4c17-a054-7ca09e5a806a.png?v=1697484967"},{"product_id":"strong-songs-of-the-dead-the-pagan-rites-of-sacred-harp-th-metzger","title":"Strong Songs of the Dead: The Pagan Rites of Sacred Harp | Th.

Not the cruelty — the flinch. \"You cannot say that wolves generally eat lambs and that it is their duty as wolves,\" he complained, \"without sending a shudder of horror through the crowd.\" \u003cem\u003eOn Christianity\u003c\/em\u003e, lifted from his late and unrepentant \u003cem\u003eLe chemin de velours\u003c\/em\u003e, is the Symbolist master of \"the dissociation of ideas\" laying his scalpel against the one idea no one is permitted to touch: the universal, obligatory morality of pity that even Christianity's loudest enemies, he noticed, take pains to leave intact — would sooner make heavier than lighten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eHis quarrel is not with faith but with sentimentality, with a \"middling happiness\" that sacrifices liberty first and calls the bargain salvation. (\"The terrestrial ideal of humanity smells of the pigsty, as its celestial ideal smelt of the stable.\") He has no patience for the patrician who kneels to the religion of slaves—\"the apostates of their caste and their race\"—and a cold admiration for the few who dare to say \u003cem\u003e\"My justice is my strength,\"\u003c\/em\u003e and who prove it. Readers of this catalog will know the phrase. Aldington's faithful rendering of «ma justice, c'est ma force» is, idiomatically, nothing other than \u003cem\u003eMight is Right\u003c\/em\u003e—the motto Max Stirner armed and Arthur Desmond made notorious. Gourmont reaches the same precipice by the velvet path: not a manifesto, but an essayist's quiet, surgical dissociation of a thing his century had glued shut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe translator is no accident. Richard Aldington—Imagist, early hand at \u003cem\u003eThe Egoist\u003c\/em\u003e under Dora Marsden—moved in exactly the milieu of intellectual independence and cheerful heresy Gourmont's prose demands, and would go on to render the Frenchman for English readers at length. (Gourmont, returning the favor across the Channel, had introduced France to Benjamin DeCasseres—no stranger to this catalog.) This edition annotates Gourmont's idiosyncratic vocabulary—his pre-biological \u003cem\u003erace\u003c\/em\u003e, his aristocratic \u003cem\u003eliberty\u003c\/em\u003e, his juridical \u003cem\u003eequity\u003c\/em\u003e—restoring the precision the polemic runs on, and that a careless century has smeared.
