In the current historical period of time, many people are carried away by fashion trends, without bothering to study the true foundations of life. The Italian philosopher and esoteric Julius Evola considered such behavior frivolous and unacceptable.

According to some researchers, human civilization began from the moment when people began to think about the meaning of their existence. Millennia have passed, but a clear answer to the question has not yet been found. Julius Evola, an Italian thinker, throughout his life tried to clarify this topic. In his writings, he paid great attention to criticism of the existing social structure. The philosopher personally took part in the conflicts that unfolded in Europe in the first half of the twentieth century.
The author of the book "Rebellion against the Modern World" was born on May 19, 1898 in an aristocratic family. At birth, he inherited the title of baron. Parents lived in the eternal city of Rome. The child received a home education. Upon reaching the appropriate age, he entered the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Rome. When the First World War began, Julius volunteered to join the army. He received an officer rank and commanded an artillery battery.
Works and hobbies
After the war, Evola searched for his place and destination for several years. The country's declining economy was recovering very slowly. The former artillery officer became interested in painting. And he achieved decent results in art. One of the paintings of the thinker is kept in the Roman Gallery of Modern Art. Julius regularly wrote articles analyzing the economic situation of the country and published them in various publications. At one time he published his own magazine, which was called "Tower". Only ten issues were released. After that, censorship banned publication.
In the mid 30-ies Evola works closely with the magazine "Fascist system". On the pages of this publication, the author maintains a regular column in which he popularizes his views on the structure of society and the state. As subsequent events showed, the views of the philosopher did not suit either the Nazis, or the monarchists, or the Communists. Julius argued convincingly and convincingly that comparing a man and a woman is a meaningless and harmful procedure for everyone. Not surprisingly, the philosopher was attacked from all sides.
