mailing list archive - Strange portuguese reference to Ernst Junger


	Hi!

	I've come across this site (sorry, it's all in portuguese). It's
about a portuguese writer called Jose Nunes and it is at
http://www.terravista.pt/ilhadomel/2569 . Anyway, the page wich may
interest Jungerites is located at
http://www.terravista.pt/ilhadomel/2569/link.htm and has links to several
authors or points of interest connected to the author. one of them is on
junger and says (translating roughly):

	"Ernst Junger and Jose Nunes. In fact they never meet although I
know Nunes had projected trip to Wilflingen. I think he always took
Junger longevity has a prof of his immortality, a immortality that
beyhond humam memorie has become also phisycal. His death at his 103
years old was a suprise to this man used to see others die. The
importance of Junger in the life of Jose Nunes is quite significative,
just have to note that "Das abenteuerliche Herz" ("O coracao
aventuroso", in the portuguese translation made by Cotovia) is the only
book that walks with him everywhere he go's.
The principles os the esthetic warrior are to in his work, having both
been in the Legion Etrangere, although in different ocasions (Junger
briefly before WWI and Nunes during the indochinoise campagne). I
remember having discussed with him several times Jungers Anarch against
The Only, from Stirner. Anyway I know he has gone to wilflingen after
all to deposit a strange african insect in the grave of that great german 
figure."

			Well, have a nice day!
