The philosophical, political, and theological thought of Nicolás Gómez Dávila (1913-1994), perhaps one of the few authentic reactionaries of our time, rises as a reaction - and a most authentic one - to an intellectual, religious and aesthetic crisis whose invariably dire consequences form the heart of his overwhelming critical discourse: That crisis is that of the twentieth-century, with all that it implies.

All of Dávila's work is a serious and passionate attempt to root out some cursed codes that have upset the immutable essence of the human, down through the centuries (and, by extension, the essence of the divine). But at the same time, his work establishes a solid, intellectual alternative to the inanity of our present era.
