Heathen Front
The Allgermanische Heidnische Front (AHF) was an international neo-Nazi organisation, active during the late 1990s and early 2000s, that espoused a philosophy known as "Odalism". The AHF's folkish heathenry was imbued with anti-semitism, xenophobia, and blood and soil nationalism. It cited among its ideological forebears Richard Walther Darré and far right German Greens such as Herbert Gruhl, August Hausleiter, Rudolf Bahro; Bahro being most infamous for his call for a "Green Adolf". These pronouncements placed the AHF firmly within the "green-brown" or ecofascist perspective.
Famous quotes containing the words heathen and/or front:
“So stick up ivy and the bays,
And then restore the heathen ways,
Green will remind you of the Spring,
Though this great day denies the thing,
And mortifies the earth, and all,
But your wild revels, and loose hall.”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
“Tennis is more than just a sport. It’s an art, like the ballet. Or like a performance in the theater. When I step on the court I feel like Anna Pavlova. Or like Adelina Patti. Or even like Sarah Bernhardt. I see the footlights in front of me. I hear the whisperings of the audience. I feel an icy shudder. Win or die! Now or never! It’s the crisis of my life.”
—Bill Tilden (1893–1953)
