From a Traditionalist perspective, the cultural history of the
Modern Era amounts to the genesis of the Dark Age. The
Traditionalist meta-historical narrative deconstructs the modernist
myth of "historic progress" as an anti-intellectual superstition.
It exposes the quintessential features of Modernity - namely,
secular nihilism, historical materialism, socio-political
egalitarianism, and collective narcissism - as structural
inversions of Traditional values. The historic accumulation of
these inversions set the stage for a final showdown between
Tradition and Modernity. In terms of ancient prophecy and
Traditionalist philosophy, the Great War represents the apocalyptic
sunset of the world of Tradition. This work follows the forgotten
path of the philosophia perennis to trace the historic onset of the
Dark Age. It clears away a century-deep deposit of "progressive"
illusions and "politically-correct" axioms. The restored road of
Traditional thought will lead a new generation of scholars to their
rightful inheritance: an intellectual tabula rasa on which history
can be written anew.
