Traditionalism

Traditionalism is a shadowy philosophy that has influenced much of the twentieth century and beyond. It is a worldview that rejects modernity and instead turns to mystical truth, perennialism, and tradition as its guide. Mark Sedgwick, one of the world's leading scholars of Traditionalism, presents a major new intellectual history, pulling back the curtain on the foundations of Traditionalist philosophy and its major proponents. Traditionalism provides an expansive guide to this important school of thought--one that is little-known and even less understood--and shows how pervasive these ideas have become.
