Through a rewriting of the works of René Guénon, Julius Evola, Gnosticism, and the Corpus Hermeticum, the author develops a conceptual framework for understanding and transforming the contemporary world. This essay expands upon the Durkheimian thesis of the social as sacred, adding an esoteric dimension that classical theories of esotericism ignored, as they focused on a cosmic or natural being with individual consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work explores the intersection between the social and the sacred from a perspective that combines philosophy, social theory, and esotericism. The author starts from the fraternal archetype, which emerged 2,500 years ago in the West, to build a point of view he calls sociosophy. Through a critical rewriting of sources such as René Guénon, Julius Evola, Gnosticism, and the Corpus Hermeticum, Bergua Amores places the social in the place of being, deploying concepts intended to understand the contemporary world in reflexive terms and transform it in political ones. The central thesis is that the social is not only sacred from an exoteric point of view, as Durkheim pointed out, but also from an esoteric perspective—something that classical theories of esotericism never considered, as they understood being as cosmic or natural and of exclusively individual reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFraternal archetype in Western civilization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritical rewriting of Guénon, Evola, Gnosticism, and Hermeticism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe social as the foundation of being from an esoteric perspective\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePolitical and reflexive transformation of the contemporary world\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion of the Durkheimian theory of the sacred\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in social and political philosophy, sociological theory, esotericism, and spirituality.
