Traditionalists emphasize the bonds of social order and the defense of ancestral institutions over what it considers excessive individualism. Traditionalist conservatism places a strong emphasis on the notions of custom, convention and tradition

>Are there any respectable conservative traditionalist books
"The Republic" is a foundational traditionalist book. It's also one of the most well-respected books in the Western Canon.

GK Chesterson, Mishima, Junger, a lot of good conservative poets like Eliot, Pound, Yeats, Cummings, Wallace Stevens.

I dunno what happened to the right wing intellectual and art movement. I guess neoliberalism will do that to ya.
