The definitive guide to Traditionalism: the world's least-known
major philosophy, but one that is essential for understanding our
past, present and future Traditionalism is founded on ancient
teachings that, its followers argue, have been handed down from
time immemorial, forming a basis of the sacred order that must be
defended from modernity and the disorder it brings. It has been
used to encourage respect for the environment, compose great music
and reduce hostility between followers of different religions. But
Traditionalism has applied to darker causes: from the election of
Donald Trump to fascist movements and even terrorism. How has
Traditionalism been so influential for so long, yet so little
acknowledged and understood? Its followers have never aimed to
reach the masses and have sought to affect the world quietly. In
this book, the first of its kind for a wide audience,
Traditionalism's history, ideas and profound impact are laid out,
shining a light onto this shadowy world and the thought of its
three founders, René Guénon, Julius Evola and Frithjof Schuon.
Once you understand Traditionalism, you will see its influence
everywhere.
