{"product_id":"roads-to-consciousness","title":"Roads to Consciousness","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst Published in 1974, \u003ci\u003eRoads to Consciousness\u003c\/i\u003e has for its protagonist the idealistic truth-seeking young man who sees that men are evil and righteously condemns the ways of this wicked world, but then falls into cynicism and despair when he discovers at last that he too is a man, and he too is evil. Through a discussion of works of literature ranging from \u003ci\u003eHamlet\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eLady Chatterley's Lover\u003c\/i\u003e, the author explores the arduous journey to Consciousness or maturity, which liberates the Hamletian hero from doubt and despair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis strikingly original account of the evolution of the Hamletian hero is accomplished by means of a number of masterly interpretations of individual works of literature, but in the final analysis this book should perhaps be regarded as a novel kind of idealised spiritual autobiography under the guise of literary criticism. This book should appeal to those interested in literature in the universities and outside, and also to thoughtful people who are concerned with the spiritual maladies of our time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55702848831832,"sku":"9781041164555","price":107.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781041164555.jpg?v=1768421725","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/roads-to-consciousness","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
