	Traditionalist School Information
		The Traditionalist School of thought (not to be confused with the "traditionalism" professed by some ultra-conservative Roman Catholics (see Traditionalist Catholic), was founded in its current form by the French metaphysician René Guénon, although its precepts are considered to be timeless and to be found in all authentic traditions.
		Traditionalists accord a high value to the intellectual activities of the pre-modern world and non-Western societies and a good deal of their work lies in the sciences of metaphysics and symbolism, as well as the discussion and elucidation of the various spiritual traditions.
		Where they venture into such realms as social criticism it is clearly from a Traditionalist perspective which turns the Progressivist/Evolutionist assumptions of modernist theorists (both "left" and "right") and of post-modernists alike on their heads.

		The modernist school often seeks to oversimplify areas of scholarly debate into unequivocal terms, be it in the form of prayer posters that advertise the “correct” way to pray or books such as Sayyid Sabiq’s ubiquitous Fiqh us-Sunnah, which attempts to abolish 1,400 years of juristic disagreement in a few slim volumes.
		The traditionalist school, on the other hand, rarefies its knowledge with the passage of time through commentaries and précis of earlier texts, while simplification occurs only through a gradation of the material to correspond with students’ relative levels of proficiency.
