News and test
New posts are on their way, although not anywhere near the predicted average of two post per month this year. Those who are patient can look forward to excerpts from René Guénon as well as new ones from Julius Evola and Ernst Jünger.

Old year, new year, same Spöknippet
About half of the posts have been written by Spöknippet. Admittedly, a fair number of those have been rather short. If we are to commit self-criticism it must be said that Spöknippet has failed to produce syntheses.
In addition it must also be said that the excerpts has leaned a bit more to the “right” than first intended. Therefore the posts if treated statistically does not reflect Spöknippets standpoint. There is however a very simple explanation to this, the availability of socialist and communist original texts is far better than the availability of “fascist” original texts. When it comes to conservative revolution and third position the situation is even worse. He who on the other hand wishes to read Marx or Lenin need look no further than Marxists.org, Spöknippet has no rôle to play there.
Looking back over the past eighteen months our slogan “Metapolitics, march music and militaria” might be considered false marketing. In fact, only one post has dealt with march music (combined with metapolitics).
The next twelve months will probably look pretty much like those that have passed. So, to the disappointment of Spöknippets friends (and our more self hating enemies) we can only say that the frequency of posting is unlikely to increase. Those who are hoping for more than an average of two posts a month will probably be disappointed.
Other than that, Spöknippet will of course, as always, continue to act as a beacon of Preußentum and as a bulwark against modernity.Finally it can be mentioned that the CIA graced us with a visit some time ago.

Book chain-blog
Copyriot invited Spöknippet to participate in what might be called a "chain-blog" about books. Admittedly rather plebeian, this does provide some indication on what you can expect to read in the not to distant future here.
Total number of books owned?
At the moment, 400-500.
The last book I bought?
Julius Evola - Revolt against the moden world together with Thomas Hobbes - Leviathan.
The last book I read?
Carl Schmitt - Political Theology. Excerpts are on the way.
Five books that mean a lot to me? (AKA books I've read more than 3 times)
- Johan Tralau - Människoskymming - Främlingsskap, frihet och Hegels problem hos Karl Marx och Ernst Jünger.
- Carl-Göran Heidegren - Preussiska anarkister - Ernst Jünger och hans krets under Weimarrepublikens krisår.
- Atos Wirtanen - Tekniken, Människan, Kulturen.
- Carl von Clausewitz - Vom Krige.
- The Bible.
Tag 5 people and have them fill this out on their blog.
Update May 31, 2005
It seems like some kind of motivation for the books chosen would be in place.
• Johan Tralau's Människoskymmning pretty much "saved" marxism. Tralau convincingly shows the similarities between Ernst Jünger and Karl Marx. "The young" Marx was in no way a humanist, quite the contrary.
• As for Dennis C-G Heidegren's Preussiska anarkister served as an important introduction to Ernst Jünger and people around him as well as to conservative revolution in general.
• Atos Wirtanen's Tekniken, Människan, Kulturen introduced Oswald Spengler and in a way also Nietzsche many years ago. Wirtanen's combination of Marx and Darwin together with the near futuristic technological optimism of the Fifties was at the time very inspiring.
• When it comes to analysing conflicts in general and wars in particular there are few books that come close to Carl von Clausewitz' Vom Krige. A metapolitical classic.
• There is always something in the book of books. The Bible is not only an immense source of inspiration but also fundamental for understanding Europe as well as the west.

[Swedish] Lite om bloggar
"Vi kommer att akta oss för att göra något för högern eller vänstern. Vi befinner oss lika långt från båda. Men vi kommer även akta oss för att företa något riktat mot dessa krafter i samtiden. Ty det är inte vår avsikt att väcka dessa till nytt liv genom att angripa dem utifrån. Överlåt dem åt sig själva. Bekymra er inte om dem. Då går de hädan. Samtliga." (Friedrich Hielscher)
Att nedlåta sig till debatterande är för Spöknippet otänkbart. Varje gång någon liberal untermensch med en blogg skriver om Spöknippet genereras givetvis trafik hit. Samtidigt är det ju knappast några andens aristokrater som trillar in den vägen. Det är måhända ingen slump att de bloggar (Café Exposé, Project Subaltern, Svartvit, Future/Past) som har Spöknippet bland sina länkar inte heller de refererar andra bloggar i någon större utsträckning.
Spöknippet finns däremot av någon outgrundlig anledning inte med bland Copyriots fasta länkar men rsms har trots allt haft den goda smaken att upprepade gånger länka Spöknippet. Oavsett detta är Copyriot en utmärkt sida som, ämnet till trots, lyckas undvika att helt och hållet sjunka ned i dagspolitikens förgörande träsk.
Den blogg som föranledde denna post är dock av ett annat slag. PoMOQueer, vilken görs av någon slags postmodernistiskt lagd homofil kulturkofta. Dess länk till Spöknippet förefaller något märklig.
Om däremot någon till äventyrs skulle känna till någon Traditionalistisk, konservativt revolutionär eller bara preussisk blogg, var inte främmande för att posta en länk i comments. Då skulle det kanske finnas anledning att länka andra bloggar något flitigare. Det sägs nämligen att dylik verksamhet är en cental del av "bloggandet"...
