In his war diaries 'In Stahlgewittern' (1920) and 'Der Kampf als inneres Erlebnis' (1926), Jünger glorified the war as a mythical natural event, from which he saw a 'new steel-hard blow of man entering the present'. From the horror of the trenches to the sound and fury of the battlefields on the Western front, Jünger celebrates war as a total event belonging to our nature. For him, Man is not destroyed but created by war; he is measured by his capacity to endure pain and sacrifice - if war brings cruel death, it also brings the re-birth of a new Man and of a new world.
