James S. Cutsinger (1953–2020) was an author, editor, and teacher whose writings focus primarily on Perennialism and the theology and spirituality of the Christian East. He was professor of Theology and Religious Thought at the University of South Carolina. Dr. Cutsinger was one of the foremost scholars of the English-speaking world on the writings and thought of Frithjof Schuon. His book Advice to the Serious Seeker: Meditations on the Teaching of Frithjof Schuon (SUNY Press, 1997) is an important contribution to studies on Schuon's work. Prof. Cutsinger also edited a series of new editions of books by Frithjof Schuon (click here to see the list of books) that feature extensive editor's notes to help readers unfamiliar with terminology and references used by Schuon in those books.

James S. Cutsinger (1953–2020), après un doctorat à Harvard, occupe la chaire de professeur de philosophie et de théologie à l'Université de Caroline du Sud. Ses écrits traitent principalement des religions comparées, du pérennialisme, de la spiritualité chrétienne orientale et du mysticisme orthodoxe. Il est considéré comme un spécialiste de la sophia perennis et de la pensée de Frithjof Schuon, dont il développe l’essentiel du message dans son Advice to the Serious Seeker: Meditations on the Teaching of Frithjof Schuon. Il a annoté plusieurs rééditions anglaises d’ouvrages de Schuon en tenant compte du lecteur peu familiarisé avec la dialectique de l’auteur.
