This article provides a new look at Weimar Germany's Conservative Revolution by exploring its suspicion of conceptual and discursive language. It argues that Conservative Revolutionaries not only disdained intellectualism and public discourse; they also extolled their presumed opposites—instinct, intuition, self-evidence—as crucial ingredients in an “ineffable nationalism” which held that a true nation is based on unexpressed or difficult-to-articulate feelings and values. The origins of this ideology are found in a modernist crisis of representation and in sociological accounts of traditional “organic” communities. These themes were politicized by World War I, whose seeming incommunicability magnified the problem of representation and made the unspoken harmony of wartime comradeship an attractive model for a revitalized national community. The article's final section examines the early writings of Ernst Jünger in order to show in detail how these issues came together to create the Conservative Revolutionary mind.

不可言喻的保守革命:语言危机作为魏玛激进右翼的动机

本文通过探讨其对概念性和话语性语言的怀疑,对魏玛德国的保守革命提供了新的视角。它认为,保守的革命者不仅蔑视知识分子和公共话语;他们还颂扬了他们假定的对立面——本能、直觉、不言而喻——作为“不可言喻的民族主义”的关键成分,认为一个真正的国家是基于未表达或难以表达的感情和价值观。这种意识形态的起源可以在现代主义的代表危机和对传统“有机”社区的社会学描述中找到。这些主题被第一次世界大战政治化,其表面上的不可交流放大了代表问题,并使战时同志情谊的不言而喻的和谐成为振兴民族社区的有吸引力的模式。
