The Third Rome (Laurent James)

 

 

Laurent James believes that the future of Europe needs to be both Christian and Pagan. How and whether at all these theologically incompatible systems can thrive along side each other seems to me one of the central issues of our civilization.  And whether anything from both parents will be born strong enough to occupy the space at the heart before Islam expands into it. 

 

FROM THE FIRST ROME TO THE THIRD ROME. OR FROM JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA TO DOSTOYEVSKY.

 

To understand the Third Rome is to understand the deep meaning of a letter of Dostoyevsky to Nikolai Strakhov in 1869: “The basis of Russian destiny consists in revealing to the world a Russian Christ, unknown to the universe, and whose principle is contained in our orthodoxy. In my opinion, this is where the elements of future power lie, the civilizing, of the resurrection by us of Europe ".

 

  Laurent James is a friend of Alexander Dugin and I think the ideas in this talk will make that evident.  

 

  He will speak of the legend of the saints of Provence, of the potential rôle of Constantinople as the capital of a "universal Empire", and the wedding of Ivan III under the aegis  of the eagle with two heads as a demonstration of the metaphysical duality of the peoples of the Eurasian continent.

 

  Laurent James is a writer and physicist, who was born in Lyon in 1970.  To date, he has contributed to eight books, and is working on a novel.  He is Roman Catholic and regularly goes on retreat. In 2000, he moved to Marseille to deepen his faith and his knowledge of Saint Mary Magdalene.  He has given lectures on revolutionary esotericism and the relationship between the Apocalypse of Saint John and the Tarot of Marseilles.  In November 2016 in Bucharest, he founded the Comité Jean Parvulesco to promote the work of the eponymous writer and perennialist.  He co-organized the first Colloquium in Chisinau (Moldova) with Lurie Rosca and Alexandr Dugin in May 2017: "From the Atlantic to the Pacific: For a common destiny of the Eurasian peoples.
