I'm thinking of converting to Dark Academia. What are the best non-fiction books that will help me understand its core concepts, tenets, and philosophy.

Just move to Melbourne, wear tweed and a scarf, be seen reading DH Lawrence novels at the trendiest cafes in Fitzroy then spout a load of nonsense on youtube.

The key thing is to sound like you know what you're talking about. You must sound like a well read and educated person.
So you're going to have to at least skim a bunch of Penguin Classics and watch at least one or two Fellini and Bergman films in order to sound credible.
Once you master the art of sounding learned (a learned disguise if you will) you can begin talking the panties off gullible first year Arts students. Remember they want to believe in you, they want to feel like they're part of some groovy, high-intellect bohemian set. So long as you can make them feel that you wil have their cunts on toast.
Good hunting Captain!

This is true as people often see what they want to see, you just have to guide their sight to soothe your needs of getting laid and fooling them into thinking you're actually an intellectual that loves books, life and indulging in vices as much as they do. Most of them overtly concerned with superficial aesthetics and looking the part, instead of actually being it. If everyone is a part of this vicious cabaret, who says you shouldn't put on a mask and have fun with it all?

Sweat won't kill you. If I'm wearing tweed and a scarf I still have to thrown on multiple layers on top of it just to still get frostbite walking from my car. It's impossible to dress as a leaf.
