Lanz von Liebenfels - Die Neutempler und die assyrischen Menschentiere - Theozoologie und Ariosophie

Let us not look for the 'infernal fires' anywhere else but in ourselves. The whole of humanity is dying the death of Sodom today, drowning in the mongrel jar of the Babylonian crabs who have slurped the marrow from its bones and the brains from its skulls. Our bodies are buried, despite all the soaps, verudumt, verpagutet and verbaziatet. Never has human life been so miserable as it is today, despite all the technical achievements. Devilish beasts of men press from above, unconscionably slaughtering millions of people in murderous wars waged to enrich their personal purses. Mankind is as rotten as Lazarus and already exudes the stench of Sodom's death. What more do you want a hell in the hereafter! Isn't the one we live in, and which burns within us, gruesome enough?' Lanz v. Liebenfels Horst Lorenz, the "chronicler of the ONT", presents a groundbreaking treatise on one of the most fascinating figures in European religious and intellectual history of the last 100 years: Lanz von Liebenfels, for some a prophet, for others "the man who gave Hitler the ideas". The author presents a balanced and comprehensive account of Lanz and his teachings Ariosophy and Theozoology beyond the usual politically motivated fixations. The Ordo Novi Templi (ONT), founded by Lanz, is subjected to a closer examination - for the first time including its post-war history.
