Possible points of analysis: How does Crainic's mysticism offer a solution to the crises of his time—spiritual, political? How does it address the individual's relationship with the divine in a collective or national sense?

Also, what's the structure of his work? Is it a systematic treatise, or more of a series of lectures with practical elements?
