As further information about the text we presented a few days ago on
Evola's cremation, here are Evola's last wishes. In their adjective-
free austerity, through what little Evola says, and through what he
does not say, especially with respect to his work, many things
regarding Evola's personality may be glimpsed by the attentive reader.
Rome, 30 January 1970
I have prepared this handwritten document in order to declare that my
will, in the case of my death, is that my body be cremated.
The ashes are to be given to Maria Antonetta Fiumara, who already has
my instructions with respect to their disposal. (follows the address -
note of the publisher)
Any form of funeral cortege, church ceremony, or Catholic religious
intervention, is to be excluded. My body is to be transported
directly from my home to the place of cremation.
Finally, I do not want any 'death notice' to be published in
newspapers, except those which they would like to give on their own
private initiative.
This declaration has been handed by myself to Countess Amalia Bacceli-
Rinaldi, and another identical to it, to my current doctor and friend
Placido Procesi ; this is to ensure that, if necessary by their joint
effort, my instructions will be followed precisely.
I grant to no one whomever any right to interfere in these last
wishes of mine.
Giulio EVOLA
