The American Minervan seeks to revive and develop the lost civic revolutionary philosophy and tradition of American Republicanism. The origins of Republicanism are intimately tied to the lineage, history, and philosophy of ancient eclectic theosophies. A revival of Republicanism within American life, politics and culture is the best strategy to save, enhance and fortify democratic practices. It demands a dedication to wisdom, discipline, principles and morals the United States government claim as its heritage but fails to live up to. It is up to you to ensure it does, and aid in lifting up the People.
