‎Fourth issue of Jünger's second published work. In 1920 Jünger had published his WWI-diaries ""In Stahlgewittern"". Together with a few other early works, the two first publications make up his account of WWI. The second publication is much more reflected and systematically written than the first.Ernst Jünger (1895-1998) was a famous German writer and philosopher. He is by many regarded as one of the greatest modern German writers as well as somewhat of a hero of the conservative revolutionary movement following WWI" - besides his important contributions to philosophy, he is mainly famous for the accounts of his experiences during the two world wars. Jünger distinguished himself greatly during WWI he was wounded several times, and was honoured with the highest military order, the medal of bravery, Pour le Mérite.‎
