The Forest Passage

Book • 1951
In 'The Forest Passage', Ernst Jünger conceptualizes resistance to totalitarian systems through the metaphor of the 'forest rebel'—a figure who pursues higher freedom through spiritual independence rather than direct political confrontation.

The work argues that true resistance involves maintaining inner autonomy and moral integrity, even while engaging with practical societal structures.

While Martin Heidegger critically engaged with Jünger's philosophy (particularly regarding technology and metaphysics), he did not co-author this book—common references to their intellectual dialogue stem from Heidegger's analysis of Jünger's concepts in his own writings.
