Abstract
Rene Guénon, a French traditionalist scholar, is known as a prominent representative of metaphysical thought, traditional studies, and the founder of eternal wisdom in the twentieth century. In his works, he examined and explained metaphysical and traditional concepts valid in Eastern and Western religions and philosophy. Guénon's thought has had a strong impact on metaphysical literature and traditional studies through concepts such as originality, unity of existence, and epistemological organization. On the other hand, Friedrich Nietzsche is known as one of the pioneers of the philosophy of human advancement. He challenged traditional and conventional values and concepts and examined their role in human existential life. His theories about the strong will, the superman, and the death of God have inspired movements such as human advancement, nihilism, spiritual will, and the philosophy of human existence. How do we arrive at a critique of modernity and modern art by analyzing the thoughts of Rene Guénon and Friedrich Nietzsche? And what impact does this analysis have on our understanding of these concepts? First, we should point out the importance of the critique of modernity and modern art, and then we will discuss the lives, thoughts, and works of these two philosophers, and finally their critiques.
