Sinossi
L’operaio apparve in Germania nel 1932, un anno prima dell’avvento di Hitler, suscitando entusiasmo, furore e scandalo, ma è così poco legato al momento storico in cui fu scritto, e tanto meno alle scelte politiche della Germania in quegli anni, da risultare per metà interamente smentito dal corso degli eventi, e per l’altra metà paurosamente profetico. In una società in cui l’individuo borghese e romantico è stato stritolato dalla tecnica, il suo successore più degno, secondo Jünger, sarà l’operaio, figura svincolata da ogni connotato di classe, che dominerà la tecnica trasformandola in forza costruttiva. Egli imporrà il dominio della forma; anzi, l’operaio è la forma superiore. L’analisi di un rapporto reale impone a Jünger assoluta verità, e perciò crudeltà. Per questo, L’operaio è uno dei libri più crudeli del nostro secolo.

If you ever wondered why people like playing Euro Truck Simulator 2, here's the book for you
I used to think I was clever, telling leftists how much they had to learn from reactionary sources. I don’t think I was wrong, really, but there’s definitely diminishing returns. I guess I just like sampling many kinds of ideas and writing and wanted a rationale to get friends on board. Maybe a bett Leggi tutto
a masterpiece, if read as a prescient work of dystopian science fiction
De analyse in dit boek is werkelijk fenomenaal en tegelijkertijd ook schrikwekkend. Via een totaal andere invalshoek dan een Evola of Guénon - zonder enig gebruik van metafysica - komt hij tot hetzelfde besluit: de dominantie van de arbeider zal die van de bourgeois vervangen. De enige reden dat ik Leggi tutto
This book is mostly a childish screed on making the worker foundational to the coming political chaos (1933 – 1945) and justifying the social revolution enabling the NAZIs to act like they care about the workers by making them the ground of the “national socialist German’s worker party.” This is one Leggi tutto
As a portrait of its own time, the essay is insuperable. But the philosophy of history and eschatological impressions it conveys were proven wrong by the passage of the years. The bourgeois world is yet to be overcome by the Form of the Worker or by anything else. Liberal society emancipated element Leggi tutto
One of the best criticisms on Liberalism i have ever read.
The invective against liberals Ernst unleashes throughout this book makes it a sort of "Chicken Soup for the Soul" for anyone with a shred of decency or morality. That alone makes it worth the price of admission. Important points: 1) The Liberal/bourgeois system of government is completely separate f Leggi tutto
Wie de voorkaft van “De arbeider” bekijkt, denkt aan een essay over de rol van de arbeider in de 19e eeuwse maatschappij en dit hoogstwaarschijnlijk vanuit een marxistische insteek. Het boek leest niet vlot weg. Dat heeft het wel gemeen met communistisch-geïnspireerd werk, maar voor het overige blij Leggi tutto
