Описание: The definitive guide to Traditionalism: the world's least-known major philosophy, but one that is essential for understanding our past, present and futureTraditionalism is founded on ancient teachings that, its followers argue, have been handed down from time immemorial, forming a basis of the sacred order that must be defended from modernity and the disorder it brings. It has been used to encourage respect for the environment, compose great music and reduce hostility between followers of different religions. But Traditionalism has applied to darker causes: from the election of Donald Trump to fascist movements and even terrorism.
How has Traditionalism been so influential for so long, yet so little acknowledged and understood? Its followers have never aimed to reach the masses and have sought to affect the world quietly. In this book, the first of its kind for a wide audience, Traditionalism's history, ideas and profound impact are laid out, shining a light onto this shadowy world and the thought of its three founders, Rene Guenon, Julius Evola and Frithjof Schuon. Once you understand Traditionalism, you will see its influence everywhere.
Описание: This book follows the life of Ivan Agueli, the artist, anarchist, and esotericist, notable as one of the earliest Western intellectuals to convert to Islam and to explore Sufism. This book explores different aspects of his life and activities, revealing each facet of Agueli's complex personality in its own right. It then shows how esotericism, art, and anarchism finally found their fulfillment in Sufi Islam.
The authors analyze how Agueli's life and conversion show that Islam occupied a more central place in modern European intellectual history than is generally realized. His life reflects several major modern intellectual, political, and cultural trends. This book is an important contribution to understanding how he came to Islam, the values and influences that informed his life, and-ultimately-the role he played in the modern Western reception of Islam.

Some say what we do in our daily lives doesn't matter in the total scheme of things, but there are actually multiple things we can do. and it can be easy. You know those things where you say, "if only everyone did whatever]"? Moxie Moves explores ten of these as ways to help positively change the world, and in the process ourselves. While partly based on chaos theory, chaos can result in the positive as well as the negative, these actions also become a personal challenge. It has been shown that knowing you make a difference improves happiness and productivity. Here each Move is described briefly, is accompanied by exercises, and includes an artist's response to the word or term. The ten actions used in the book are smile, be grateful, sleep, be litter free, learn, listen, love your body, keep your word, vote, and play. Every chapter is an effective conversation starter for sharing ideas with others, but primarily they are presented as a prompt for individuals to explore and adopt simple ways to make powerful differences for themselves and the world.

Описание: An astonishing untold story from the nineteenth century--a "riveting...engrossing...'American Epic'" (The Wall Street Journal) and necessary work of history that reads like Gone with the Wind for the Cherokee. "A vigorous, well-written book that distills a complex history to a clash between two men without oversimplifying" (Kirkus Reviews), Blood Moon is the story of the feud between two rival Cherokee chiefs from the early years of the United States through the infamous Trail of Tears and into the Civil War. Their enmity would lead to war, forced removal from their homeland, and the devastation of a once-proud nation. One of the men, known as The Ridge--short for He Who Walks on Mountaintops--is a fearsome warrior who speaks no English, but whose exploits on the battlefield are legendary. The other, John Ross, is descended from Scottish traders and looks like one: a pale, unimposing half-pint who wears modern clothes and speaks not a word of Cherokee. At first, the two men are friends and allies who negotiate with almost every American president from George Washington through Abraham Lincoln. But as the threat to their land and their people grows more dire, they break with each other on the subject of removal. In Blood Moon, John Sedgwick restores the Cherokee to their rightful place in American history in a dramatic saga that informs much of the country's mythic past today. Fueled by meticulous research in contemporary diaries and journals, newspaper reports, and eyewitness accounts--and Sedgwick's own extensive travels within Cherokee lands from the Southeast to Oklahoma--it is "a wild ride of a book--fascinating, chilling, and enlightening--that explains the removal of the Cherokee as one of the central dramas of our country" (Ian Frazier). Populated with heroes and scoundrels of all varieties, this is a richly evocative portrait of the Cherokee that is destined to become the defining book on this extraordinary people.
