A website is now in place for The Initiate, a Journal of Traditional Studies created and edited by clansmen of the Great Bear.

The Initiate seeks to provide a forum for academic research into fields related to Tradition and Traditionalism. Our scope covers folklore, myth, culture, religion, politics, language, history, esoteric studies, archaeology, anthropology and the relevance of Tradition in the modern world. Our goal is to make the work and philosophy of both well-known and upcoming Traditionalists more widely accessible to the English-speaking world.

The Initiate does not take a partisan position on religion, politics or culture. However, our vision is to promote the rebirth of the diverse traditions of the Integral cultures that once graced the face of the Earth, in opposition to the shallow, fragmented culture of modernity.

The Initiate stands against the ethos of materialism, atomized individualism, political correctness and multiculturalism that characterises the modern world. In our studies, we seek to honour the eternal quest for higher meaning, which characterises the human condition in the world of Tradition and Initiation.

Our aim in this quest is to remember and preserve the traditions and voices of generations past.
