In this window on to the roots and evolution of international neo-Nazism, Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke reveals the strong impact of 1 of fascism’s most inventive minds.
Savitri Devi’s affect on neo-Nazism and other hybrid strains of mystical fascism has been continuos since the mid-nineteen sixties. A Frenchwoman of Greek-English birth, Devi became an admirer of German National Socialism in the late nineteen twenties. Deeply amazed by its racial heritage and caste-technique, she emigrated to India, where she developed her racial ideology, in the early nineteen thirties. Her operates have been reissued and dispersed by way of numerous neo-Nazi networks and she has been lionized as a foremother of Nazi ideology. Her attractiveness to neo-Nazi sects lies in the extremely eccentricity of her believed â€" merging Aryan supremacism and anti-Semitism with Hinduism, social Darwinisn, animal rights, and a in essence biocentric look at of daily life â€" and has resulted in curious, yet effective alliances in radical ideology.
As one particular of the earliest Holocaust deniers and the 1st to recommend that Adolf Hitler was an avatarâ€" a god come to earth in human type to restore the planet to a golden age â€" Devi grew to become a fixture in the shadowy neo-Nazi world. In Hitler’s Priestess, Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke examines how somebody with so minor tangible link to Nazi Germany became such a potent advocate of Hitler’s misanthropy.
Hitler’s Priestess illuminates the life of a girl who reached the standing of a prophetess for her penchant for redirecting genuine non secular energies in the support of regenerate fascism.
