mailing list archive - _The Details of Time - Conversation with Juenger_

Just bought _The Details of Time - Conversation with Juenger_
by Julien Hervier (New York: Marsilio Publishers, this edition
1995) from www.HamiltonBook.com for US $ 1.00. They
only deliver within the United States so you either have
to live in the US or have somebody who can take delivery
in the US. It seems as if the company has bought the
rest stock of the book, so there might be other copies
available.

A short excerpt from the book:

"Hervier: If I focus on the two utopias of your great novels
_Heliopolis_ and _Eumeswil_ - 1949 and 1977 respectively -
it seems that your view of the world has definitely grown more
somber.

Juenger: Yes, but I would like to say that I do not want this
to be interpreted as a prophecy abou the future...Total
decadence is sertainly possibe. But it is still indispensable for
man to intervene and make use of his freedom. He can always
change everything." (p. 125).

With Juengerian greetings

Bertil Haggman
