I have just learned that Cologero Salvo, the man behind the Gornahoor blog and site that was a part of the Synlogos feed, passed away on Ascension Eve -- May 17.
Salvo's metaphysics were not exactly my metaphysics, but he possessed a remarkable depth of knowledge when it came to metaphysical matters. He was an interesting and engaging writer, particularly when he concentrated on themes and topics I tend to ignore or neglect.
Salvo published his final post on April 11. A month or so later, I began to wonder why he was not showing up on the Synlogos feed, so I checked his site and found it inactive. Assuming he was taking a break, I left the site. I returned a few times over the summer. Still nothing.
When I went back to the site today, I took the time to read the comments on his last blog post, which is where I learned of his death.
Apparently, he died of something birdemic-related. His son will maintain the site.
The following appears on the Gornahoor "About" page (bold, blue added):
Live free, acquire knowledge, speak the truth
What is needed is not a revolution in the opposite direction, but the opposite of a revolution. ~ Joseph de Maistre
An exploration of metaphysics, physics, religion, and high culture connecting Ancient Wisdom to the modern world.
Thanks for your work, Cologero. You are missed.
