The Foreword to “Frithjof Schuon and the Perennial Philosophy”
In this “Foreword” to author Harry Oldmeadow’s study of the intellectual and spiritual message of Frithjof Schuon, Dr. William Stoddart (a close associate of Schuon’s for many decades) situates Schuon’s writings in the history of human thought, gives suggestions to new readers on how to approach Schuon’s “difficult” expositions, and touches on the esoteric nature and intent of Schuon’s work. Stoddart praises Oldmeadow’s book for its clarity and comprehensiveness.
