The Crisis of the Modern World is one of the most influential works of René Guénon, a French philosopher and metaphysician who became an iconic representative of 20th-century traditionalism. In this book, the author raises important and topical issues related to the spiritual and cultural crisis that has engulfed modern society. Guénon not only states the problems, but also offers an in-depth analysis of the reasons behind this crisis, which makes his work not only interesting, but also extremely relevant for the modern reader. The book begins with reflections on how modern civilization has lost touch with traditional values and spiritual truths. Guénon argues that in pursuit of material progress and scientific achievement, humanity forgets about its roots, about what is really important for its existence. He examines how this break with tradition leads to the degradation of culture, morality and spirituality, creating a void that cannot be filled by any material goods. The “crisis of the modern world” will be of interest to those who are looking for answers to questions about the meaning of life, about the place of a person in the world and about how to maintain their identity in the context of globalization and cultural confusion. This book will be a real discovery for young people, students of philosophical and cultural faculties, as well as for anyone interested in metaphysics, religion and cultural criticism. Guénon addresses the reader with deep respect and understanding, which makes his ideas accessible and understandable, even if they require thoughtful analysis. The topics raised in the book relate not only to philosophical aspects, but also to social, political, and cultural aspects. Guénon analyzes how modern society faces an identity crisis, how the individual loses his connection with the collective and tradition. He also raises the question of how to restore this connection and return the lost values. In this context, the book becomes not just a theoretical work, but also a practical guide for those who seek spiritual revival. René Guénon's style is clear and deep. He skillfully combines philosophical reflections with concrete examples from history and culture, making his ideas clear and convincing. His other works, such as The Symbolism of the Cross and Tradition and Modernity, also explore similar themes, but The Crisis of the Modern World is perhaps his most significant and comprehensive work. This book is not just for reading; it is for thinking. Each paragraph is filled with meaning, and the reader can return to it again and again, discovering new facets of thought. Guénon urges us to think about what we can do to restore the lost unity with tradition and spirituality, which makes his work relevant for all who are looking for a path to self-discovery and inner peace. If you are interested in the issues of philosophy, culture and spirituality, if you are concerned about the state of modern society and you are looking for ways to improve it, the Crisis of the Modern World will become an invaluable source of inspiration and knowledge for you. This book is not just an analysis of problems, but also a call to action, a search for deep meaning in our existence.
