Three Aspects of The Jewish Problem by Julius Evola

Introduction

By the early twenty-first century, most of the books by Julius Evola have been translated and published in the English language, with the notable exception of those dealing with the racial question, namely Il Mito del Sangue (The Myth of Blood, 1937), a history, commissioned by the publisher Hoepli, of the genesis and the development of the racial theory, from antiquity to modern times; Sintesi di Dottrina della Razza (Synthesis of Racial Doctrine, 1941; published in a slightly modified version in German in 1943 as Grundrisse des faschistischen Rassenlehre), a doctrine of race based on the classical principle of the tripartition of the human being into body, soul, and spirit; and Indirizzi per una Educazione Razziale – The Elements of Racial Education (1941), a didactic exposition of this doctrine, intended for the youth and for the educator, published by us in English in 2005.

Our aim has been to fill this editorial lacuna, while developing a critical analysis of the author’s work, and more particularly, of his racial work, from a standpoint that is radically different from that adopted in the introduction to Men Among the Ruins (2002), which includes the first attempt ever made in the English language at presenting a comprehensive account of the views of Julius Evola on race. To that end, as yet untranslated writings of Evola have been published in various Indo-European languages at [the link is broken but kept for historical interest] since 2003 and related studies posted, among other things,at [the link is broken but kept for historical interest] since 2005.

Tre Aspetti del Problema Ebraico – Three Aspects of the Jewish Problem was first published in English in 2005, however, due to circumstances beyond our control, this edition soon became unavailable and thus it became necessary to publish it once again in a newly revised edition, this time accompanied by a critical analysis of the views expressed therein. Indeed, some of the considerations developed are even questionable, not to say problematic, and they shall be examined in due course, hence the afterword.

The reader familiar with works on the Jewish question who opens this book for the first time may be struck by its sobriety and brevity. This brevity may be due to the fact that the three chapters first appeared as articles in a journal (Regime Corporativo); the fact however remains that the text of these articles was gathered and published in 1936 as Three Aspects of the Jewish Problem without any modification. It must therefore be inferred that Julius Evola considered he had said everything he had to say regarding this question, all the more so given that he never published any further systematic work on the matter. Besides, the Jewish question was dealt with in its properly religious, scientific, political, or historical aspects – including the Jewish psychology – in a series of some forty articles he wrote for various Italian papers between 1932 and September 1941 – to be compiled in 1992 by the Italian publisher Il Cinabro into an anthology, Il ‘Genio’ d’Israele.

Indeed, the last word has not been said. The essential has been.
