five by mogtus-sanlux
This bundle brings together five rare, limited-edition booklets from mogtus-sanlux, exploring the fringes of philosophy, science, and the existential. Each 16-page square 8vo booklet is a numbered artifact of subterranean thought, spanning from ancient wisdom to radical 20th-century theorizing.
The Collection Includes:
-
Ecclesiastes (Ltd. Ed. 20) A haunting presentation of the biblical classic. "Vanity of vanities... all is vanity." This edition distills the quintessential meditation on the fleeting nature of life and the futility of human endeavor.
-
A Procession of the Damned – Charles Fort (Ltd. Ed. 20) A foundational excerpt from the father of "Forteana." Charles Fort marches a battalion of "excluded data"—strange phenomena and anomalous facts that mainstream science has exhumed and cast aside.
-
Flying Saucers... – J. Posadas (Ltd. Ed. 20) The infamous Trotskyist leader J. Posadas theorizes on the intersection of extraterrestrial life and the socialist struggle. He argues that advanced civilizations from other planets must have already achieved socialism to survive, offering a unique, radical lens on the cosmos.
-
What is Aristocratic? – Leone Gioacchino Sera (Ltd. Ed. 20) A clinical, "naturalist" exploration of egoism, violence, and leisure. Sera strips away moral sanctions to examine the aristocratic impulse as a biological and social reality rather than a ethical category.
-
The Shortness of Life – Jeremy Taylor (Ltd. Ed. 50) A profound reflection by the 17th-century cleric, contemplating the brevity of our existence. Taylor compares generations of men to bubbles rising and falling in a great storm of nature and providence.
