where should i start? crisis of the modern world?

>>10449522
Yes.

>> No.10449545

Start with Vico,
then read Maistre,
then take a look at Ballanche,
proceed with Blanc de Saint-Bonnet,
go on with Donoso Cortés.

Don't read Guénon or Evola, they're shit.

Depends what your interest in him is. If purely for his politics, Crisis and then Reign of Quantity, and then whichever of his works interest you, probably his work on initiation.

If you specifically want him for his trad stuff, Hindu Doctrines and Man and his Becoming, then the rest as normal.

Because they're the real Traditionalists
Guénon is a shit-tier occultist that named his stuff Traditionalism, yet it is all but that.
It's full of lieux-communs that you can find in a lot of earlier authors.
Also, masonic scumbag, converted to sufism to marry a girl, which is subhuman-tier.
He had a camel face too.

Archive.org has free pdfs of some 20 translated works of his in chronological order.

Starting with 'Indroduction to the Hindu Doctrines' is a must. 'East and West' further goes over point he made about western vs eastern cultures in 'Intro' and can be skipped if you feel you got it in that one.

The correct order to read his mainly metaphysical works are 1. Introduction to hindu doctrines 2. Man and his becoming according to the Vedanta 3. The symbolism of the cross 4. The multiple states of being

Most of his work is more or less metaphysical but these 4 are heavily metaphysical and are built upon one another.

The rest of his stuff can be read in any order but it's helpful to read the stuff he wrote earlier first because in his later books he references them.

It's pics like these that assure me I'm wasting my youth.

Read 'em if you're curious, OP, but I read de Maistre and the first thing that comes to mind when I think of him is the old anti-Goldwater slogan, "In your guts, you know he's nuts."
