Description:
"From the State the exceptional individual cannot expect much. He is seldom benefited by being taken into its service; the only certain advantage it can give him is complete independence. Only real culture will prevent him being too early tired out or used up, and will spare him the exhausting struggle against culture-philistinism." - Friedrich Nietzsche As a publication, Aristokratia unequivocally and unapologetically postulates ideas which challenge popular thought.

"From the State the exceptional individual cannot expect much. He is seldom benefited by being taken into its service; the only certain advantage it can give him is complete independence. Only real culture will prevent him being too early tired out or used up, and will spare him the exhausting struggle against culture-philistinism." - Friedrich Nietzsche As a publication, Aristokratia unequivocally and unapologetically postulates ideas which challenge popular thought. Aristokratia is a publication for the Aristocrats of the Soul, the Creators of the Spirit and the Artists of the Mind. The concept behind Aristokratia presents a collection of essays on authors and artists such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Plato, Carl Jung, Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, Julius Evola, Rene Guénon, Oswald Spengler, Fernando Pessoa, Frithjof Schuon, Huston Smith, H. P. Lovecraft, Henry James, Emil Cioran, Nicholas Gómez Dávila, Aleister Crowley, and George Brandes. Aristokratia deals with the following topics: High Culture, Theories of Civilization, Philosophy, Aesthetics, Ethics, Morality, Cultural Criticism, Tradition, and Gnosis. It does not promote, nor attach itself to any contemporary model of politics. Rather, Aristokratia declares itself to be entirely divorced from the corpus of contemporary Western politics as it is currently defined, to create new socio-cultural paradigms which are primarily culture driven. Authors include Gwendolyn Taunton, Marek Rostkowski, K R Bolton, Brett Stevens, Boris Nad and many others...
