On Lovinescu's death, Hyperion had been taken over by one of his followers (Florin Mihaescu) who in 1997 established a Traditionalist publishing house (Rosmarin) that by 2001 had published 34 titles, concentrating on the work of Lovinescu. Ten other important Traditionalist books (by Guénon, Coomaraswamy, Evola, Schuon, and Burckhardt) were published in the same period by Humanitas, a mainstream publisher. By 1998, the weekly Traditionalist radio program by a follower of Mihaescu, the radio journalist Daniela Rei (1969- ), was well established. For Rosmarin, see http://webzter.ro./rosmarin [June 2001].
