Nell'ultima parte della sua vita Guénon si ritirò al Cairo, come convertito all'Islam. Quanto egli ha scritto su questa tradizione assume perciò nella sua opera un significato peculiare. E tanto più quanto ha scritto sul Sufismo che per Guénon è il cuore esoterico dell'Islam. Del tutto opposta nel modo di manifestarsi, ma orientata verso le stesse verità iniziatiche, la tradizione cinese, di cui qui si esamina la polarità Taoismo-Confucianesim...

René Guénon (1886-1951) is undoubtedly one of the luminaries of the twentieth century, whose critique of the modern world has stood fast against the shifting sands of recent philosophies. His oeuvre of 26 volumes is providential for the modern seeker: pointing ceaselessly to the perennial wisdom found in past cultures ranging from the Shamanistic to the Indian and Chinese, the Hellenic and Judaic, the Christian and Islamic, and including also ...

A study of the traditional metaphysics of the Taoist tradition, with many comparisons made to Western esoteric traditions, such as Alchemy, Hermeticism, and Freemasonry, as well as parallels with Christian and Islamic doctrine.

A study of the constitution and development of the human being from the metaphysical point of view, with special reference to Vedantic doctrine.

In Symbols of Sacred Science, Guénon, a master of precise, even 'mathematical' metaphysical exposition, reveals himself as a consummate exegete of myth and symbolism as well, superior in many ways to Mircea Eliade, and comparable perhaps only to his respected friend Ananda K. Coomaraswamy. This extraordinary text unveils the cosmological meanings of root symbols organized under such general headings as: The Center of the World, Cyclic Manifest...

The articles collected in this volume represent some of the most unusual from Guénon's pen. They could be described as fragments of an unknown history, a history reaching back through prehistory to protohistory, for they begin with the Primordial Tradition contemporaneous with the beginnings of present humanity. The text opens with a study on cosmic cycles, taking as point of departure the Hindu doctrine of the Manvantara, though similar doct...

Excerpt from Le Théosophisme: Histoire d'une Pseudo-Religion Nous devons avant tout justifier le mot peu usité qui sert de titre à cette étude pourquoi théosophisme et non théosophie C'est que, pour nous, ces deux mots désignent deux choses très différentes, et qu'il importe de dissiper, même au prix d'un néologisme ou de ce qui peut paraître tel, la confusion que doit naturellement produire la similitude d'appellation. Cela importe même d'au...
