Tradição
For Evola, the word Tradition had a meaning very similar to that of Truth. The doctrine of the four ages and a broad characterization of the attributes of Tradition, and their manifestations in traditional societies compromised the bulk of Evola's major work Revolt Against the Modern World.
Revolt Against the Modern World (Rivolta contro il mondo moderno) is a book by Julius Evola, first published in Italy, in 1934. Widely seen as his magnum opus, it is an elucidation of his Traditionalist world view.
The first part of the book deals with the concepts of the Traditional world; its knowledge of the bridge between the earthly and the transcendent worlds. The second part deals with the modern world, contrasting its characteristics with those of traditional societies: from politics and institutions to views on life and death. Evola denounces the regressive aspects of modern civilisation (using Tradition as a normative principle).
