Does any of you know any non-Marxist books in literary and cultural theory? Anything that does not promote Cultural Marxism and does not build its arguments on flawed premises of Cultural Marxism but is still recognized in Western academia will do.

or you could read the source materials for yourself and have your own thought and theories.

Most philosophers wrote something about art at one point or another. If you don't want anything Marxist, there's a fair few philosopher's which that includes. Kant's Critique of Judgement is great (it's about beauty and the sublime) or Martin Heidegger's Poetry Language Thought are both good and are recognized in academia. If you want something more recent, Harold Bloom's The Western Canon is (among other things) about how academics try to integrate weaker works into teaching to further a political agenda, and how that weakens the humanities as a whole.

Also >>9425 makes a good point. If you don't like them that much, I'd say you should read them in order to argue against them.

Unless you are going full on "red-pill" then no, not really. Everything is either right-wing psychoanalysis or written by the ancient Greeks.

Go to /lit/ or /pol/ and they often have lists of essential reading, which touches upon some of these themes.

Jung, Spengler, Yockey, and Evola all might be what you're looking for.

Evola is pretty much the final boss of rad-trad lit though, he was either insane or so far down the rabbit-hole that he couldn't be detected from the surface.

Also, I personally love the works of Savitri Devi, but you should only read that if you're remotely willing to entertain the idea that what Hitler did wrong was actually not kill enough Jews, lel
