This book analyzes the world of 1914 by combining the approaches of
traditionalist hermeneutics and 20th century geopolitics. The
juxtaposition of these two frameworks, incorporated in the
principles of Sacred Geography and Sea Power, allows for a
Traditionalist perspective on the choices facing the Ten Great
Powers on the eve of the Great War. The book's multifaceted
approach follows the iconoclastic "culture critique" method of the
Traditional School that was developed by Rene Guenon, Frithjof
Schuon and Julius Evola; it shows the pre-war world as essentially
different from the post-war world. Thus, the Ten Great Power
protagonists of the Great War may be understood on their own terms,
rather than through a backward projection of politically-correct
values on the existentially different human life-world of 1914.
Dislodging the historical-materialist "progress" premise that
underpins contemporary academic historiography, this book reasserts
the highest claim of the Art of History: meta-narrative meaning.
