(1) The quotation at 33:30 is taken from the famous scene in Bernardo Bertolucci’s 1987 film ‘The Last Emperor’, in which the child Pu-yi is named to succeed as Emperor by the Empress Dowager Tzu-hshi.
(2) For those interested in a Traditionalist take on Modern Cultural History and/or Post-modern Meta-Politics: the interviewer in this episode of Interregnum, has published several books relevant to both topics: ‘The Sunset of Tradition’ (Cambridge Scholars, 2018), ‘Traditionalist History: The Former Earth’ (Cambridge Scholars, 2021), ‘Alba Rosa’ (Arktos: London, 2019).
(3) To add some artistic fire to this philosophical talk: an appropriate theme song to this Interregnum edition, which touches upon the primordial creativity of all authentic Tradition, would be ‘Pfhat A flash... and the sky opened!’ by Giacinto Scelsi (1974). It is a ‘half-coded’ reference to the Ancient Egypt Creator God Ptah. Link to YT: https://youtu.be/KMfF4vRTxdY
