7. Cologero on 2012-11-05 at 21:34 said:

Since this essay was written, there has been no progress on this proposed
task. The historiography of the left is accepted as obviously true: to wit,
history, or at least modern history, has been the progressive growth of
knowledge, freedom, and tolerance; it has overcome a series of enslavement,
oppression, and discrimination.

Opposed to this, Evola expresses the counter-view of Tradition. Modern

history has been the decline from a spiritual, heroic, hierarchical civilization
to a materialist, undifferentiated, meaningless existence. The cause is the
“degeneration of castes”.

He assumes that current events will be understood in this light, at least by the
few who are up to this task. Are there any takers?

Nowhere, even with the micro-surge in the interest in Tradition in some

quarters, is such an historiography being written. I assume the global right
that Evola referred to was GRECE, or the New Right as it is more commonly
called. Unfortunately, the perspective of this movement is far from what
Evola is describing here.
