It is no simple task to find something interesting to add to Marco Pasi's well-balanced and highly detailed discussion of the connections between Crowley and Evola. It seems certain now that they never met each other, even though Crowley lived in Sicily for three years and was not forced to leave his Abbey in Cefalù until 1923 (when Evola was already 25 years old). A meeting would therefore easily have been within the realm of possibility, especially when we consider Evola's family roots in Sicily, as well as the interest in occult matters that was growing in him at the time. But the fact that in June 1928 Evola was still unaware of Crowley's pseudonym, “Master Therion”, and even more the fact that he did not mention Crowley in the chapter on contemporary esoteric currents (“‘Magic’ in the Modern World”) in his book Maschera e volto dello spiritualismo contemporaneo, published in 1932, seems to me sufficient proof that they did not know each other personally. Even in the revised second edition of this same book, from 1949, Evola says nothing about him. Crowley does not emerge until the third revised edition of 1971. It is known that Crowley never once mentioned Evola in his writings, and none of Crowley's previous biographers have written a single line about the Italian author. Nor is anything on this subject to be found in the world's largest collection of Crowley documents, located at the Warburg Institute in London.
