Bowden's oratorical firepower is on full display in this 2009 interview. Members of the London New-Right put every question to him you ever wanted to ask, letting Bowden hold forth on such topics as race and politics, the EU, Islam, gender roles, paganism and Christianity, modern art, and his own vision of the future. This volume also includes three short reflections on Bowden the man by members of the London New-Right. Far from suggesting a misty-eyed return to a nostalgic past, the picture Bowden paints here is one of great intellectual daring, aesthetic dynamism, and the sort of bravado needed for any political movement to succeed. This is a foundational voice of the dissident right reminding it of lessons it has forgotten. The inaugural release in the Studies in Reaction series, Bowden's Why I Am Not a Liberal serves as a sweeping overview of illiberal thinking, and makes for an excellent entré into dissident right politics.

Reactionary Modernism

Since the Second World War, "Modernism" in the arts has been overwhelmingly associated with the cultural and political Left. But before the War, there was vigorous debate between Modernists of the Right and the Left. Jonathan Bowden was a latter-day Reactionary Modernist in both literature and the visual arts. Reactionary Modernism collects Bowden's lectures and essays on such great Reactionary Modernist artists as Wyndham Lewis, Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot, W. B. Yeats, and Arno Breker, as well as his criticisms of the degenerate Modernism of Stewart Home and the Turner Prize. The statements collected in Reactionary Modernism do not merely dwell on the past, for by returning to tradition, Bowden hoped to inspire an artistic renaissance on the Right. "Let us return to tradition to go forwards with modernity in a different direction."-Jonathan Bowden

Originally published in 1992 prior to Jonathan Bowden’s reactionary political conversion, Aryan is a kaleidoscopic, prose-poetic study of “Nazism and the twilight of modern man.” This Nine-Banded Books edition has been transcribed with careful fidelity to the original text and represents the final installment of our “Bowden trilogy,” with Mad and Sade preceding.\nWhat everyone would put in a book – what no one can jot down in a line. Undutiful, irreducible, garrulously subversive, a testament of hatred for the system, in which those who seek it, may find a love of the individual who refuses subjection.

Between the late 1970s and the early 1990s, Jonathan Bowden wrote 27 books, about which almost nothing was known until after his death. Combining cultural criticism with memoir, high journalism, and selected correspondence, these texts belong to no particular genre, the prose being allowed to roam where it may, drawing from many strands, fi nding unexpected links, and collecting shrewd insights along the way. More than anything, they are exercises in exploration and selfclarification, wherein one will fi nd, as work in progress, many of the themes that would later emerge in his orations. The Jonathan Bowden Collection aims at making these obscure texts readily available for the fi rst time, complete with annotations and indices, so that they may be studied and / or enjoyed by present and future generations interested in the dissidents at the margins of British intellectual life at the turn of our century.Written during the Spring of 1993, Jonathan begins with a commentary on a Deathlok comic, going vignette by vignette, which leads him onto a prescient discussion of the prospect of resurgent authoritarianism through technology in the liberal state. Deathlok’s world of urban blight then recalls a visit to the Isle of Sheppey, told in cinematic detail. And from there Jonathan dedicates the rest of the volume to a wide-ranging discussion—always through the prism of right and left—of religion, magic, and the occult, paying particular attention to Christianity, paganism, and Satanism, and touching on Alister Crowley, Anton LaVey, and the novels of British occult writer Dennis Wheatley. An interesting volume spanning from the modern and the popular, to the ancient and the transcendent.
