Wyndham Lewis was born on this day in 1882. A first-rate novelist, critic, and painter, he was a leading English exponent of fascist modernism. In honor of his birth, I wish to draw your attention to the following works on this website:

• Kerry Bolton, “Wyndham Lewis” (French translation here)


• Jonathan Bowden, “Classical Modernism and the Art of the Radical Right“


• Jonathan Bowden, “Elitism, British Modernism, and Wyndham Lewis” (transcript)


• Jonathan Bowden, “Wyndham Lewis” (podcast)


• Jonathan Bowden, “Wyndham Lewis’ Tarr: An Exercise in Right-Wing Psychology” (Bulgarian translation here)


• 
  
  

  You can buy Kerry Bolton’s Artists of the Right here.

  
  

  Jonathan Bowden, “Wyndham Lewis’ The Apes of God” (Bulgarian translation here)



• Jonathan Bowden, “Wyndham Lewis’ Childermass: Black Metal, without the Music“


• Adrian Davies, “Culture and ‘Engagement’: French and English Perspectives“


• Alex Kurtagić, “Some Sort of Nietzschean“

Kerry Bolton’s essay and Bowden’s “Elitism, British Modernism, and Wyndham Lewis” are both excellent overviews of Wyndham Lewis’s life and work.
