About this site

The Frithjof Schuon Archive constitutes the most comprehensive repository of material pertaining to Schuon’s life and work, including published articles, personal correspondence, private papers, poems, photographs, and works of art. This site also contains archival information related to the "Perennialist School", of which Schuon was the preeminent exponent. Various summaries of information and different archives allow readers to view the depth and breadth of Schuon’s life and corpus from different points of view.

And, no one translation is adequate to convey the nuance and depth of meaning in the original languages. Reasonable minds often differ regarding the best translation, yet it is not possible to print the same material in multiple translations. This archive therefore preserves multiple translations of the same document in several instances, thus allowing readers to form their own opinions.
