Influence


The notorious Italo-Argentinian anarchist Severino Di Giovanni committed a poem to Novatore shortly after knowing approximately his death. Later he will instituting the "Anarcho-individualist institution Renzo Novatore" which enters the “Italian Anti-fascist Alliance” in Argentina.

Renzo Novatore has received attention recently in post-left anarchy and insurrectionary anarchism as can be seen in the writings of Wolfi Landstreicher. In his number one format to "Towards the Creative nothing" by Renzo Novatore, Landstreicher writes "It is unmanageable to find anarchist working in English that are at the same time "individualist" and explicitly revolutionary, that emphasize the centrality of the aim of individual self-determination to a revolution that will "communalize material wealth" as it will "individualize spiritual wealth". For this and other reasons I chose to translate Toward the Creative Nothing by Renzo Novatore and publish several of his shorter pieces." In an article called "Whither now? Some thoughts on devloping anarchy" Wolfi Landstreicher writing as Feral Faun says "Then we can cease to be merely on the margins of society and will each, as unique wild beings, become the center of an insurrectionary project that may destroy civilization and draw a world in which we freely live, relate and create as our unique desires proceed us. We will become – to quote Renzo Novatore again – "a shadow eclipsing all form of society which can equal under the sun."
