Publisher's Synopsis
Love Of Life: A Longing Not to Die (Volume 2)
Human desire to live forever prompts Unamuno's sincere search for the truth of immortality. Firstly, he tries rationalism, thereby tending towards Hegel's theory. When he sees that the power of human reason cannot express the inexpressible - the cardinal inherent human hunger, thirst, and desire for self-perpetuation and self-preservation, the longing not to die but to live forever - he turns to irrationalism. In other words, Unamuno, claiming that man has eternal soul, substantiates his thesis of immortality of the human soul merely via the method of irrationalism. Is this sufficient? Read to find out! (Volume 2) 'To discover death is to discover the hunger of immortality'(Unamuno, Tragic Sense of Life)
