Frithjof Schuon

    18 de junio de 1907 – 5 de mayo de 1998

    Frithjof Schuon fue un filósofo y metafísico reconocido como una autoridad en religión y espiritualidad, y un destacado exponente de la Escuela Perennialista. Su obra se centra en el concepto de una religión eterna (Religio Perennis), ofreciendo una crítica al relativismo académico moderno. Schuon articuló una profunda fe en un principio absoluto, Dios, como el regidor del universo, enfatizando la conexión entre este principio divino y la humanidad a través de la revelación. Si bien sus principales obras metafísicas fueron compuestas en francés, también incursionó en la poesía en alemán.
