On the Soul of Chivalry...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The central theme of the “mystery” of the Grail, besides the test of mending a broken sword, consists in a regal restoration; there is the expectation of a knight who will restore the prestige of a decadent realm and who will avenge or heal a king who is either wounded, paralyzed, or in a catatonic state. Crisscrossing references connect these themes both to the imperial myth and to the very idea of a supreme, invisible and “polar” center of the world. It is obvious that in this cycle, which was important to the medieval chivalrous world, a particular tradition was at work. This tradition had little to do with the dominant religion, and although it occasionally adopted some elements from Christianity, maybe it did so to better to express, or conversely, to hide itself. The Grail is truly a myth of the “regal religion” that confirms what has been said about the secret soul of chivalry. - Julius Evola, Revolt Against the Modern World

“The born commander requires neither an office nor a diploma; he is recognized by his gaze and his voice. And the man predestined to create is recognized by the dreamlike mood he emanates. That is the effect of artworks, their immeasurable, incomprehensible enchantment, and also their power to console.”
— Ernst Jünger, Eumeswil
