A Handbook of Traditional Living
A Handbook of Traditional Living er en bok utgitt av Arktos i 2010. Boken inneholder to lengre artikler: The World of Tradition og The Front Of Tradition. Begge ble først gitt ut hver for seg på italiensk av den evolianske kulturorganisasjonen Raido med base i Roma, og så siden oversatt til engelsk og utgitt samlet av Arktos. Boken tar for seg den "evolianske verdensanskuelse" med alt dette innebærer av kritikk mot moderniteten og fremming av et tradisjonalistisk tankesett. Boken er tiltenkt som en håndbok i hvordan det differensierte individ skal føre seg for å overleve i den moderne verden.
Fra bokens bakside
” | "This book consists of two texts originally published by the Italian cultural organisation Raido, translated here for the first time: The World of Tradition and The Front of Tradition. The first is a comprehensive summary of the principal ideas of Julius Evola. The esoteric history of the world, the nature of the Primordial Tradition, and the crisis of the modern world are discussed. The second, while also steeped in the Evolian worldview, presents a more practical guide for living as a traditionalist. Guidelines for life as an individual living in detachment from modernity, as well as for developing and being a member of an organisation dedicated to the restoration of Tradition, are outlined. This book argues that ideology and strategy are not enough by themselves. The individual who desires a revolt against the modern world must first internalise and conduct all of one’s actions in accordance with the way of life of Tradition. Also included are methods for doing this."
"Whether the reader is an Evolian, a traditionalist or is merely seeking a means for survival in a degraded age, this handbook will be inspiring to them all." |
