Description

Myth in the Modern Novel: Imagining the Absolute explores how contemporary fiction engages with mythological narratives and the search for transcendent meaning. Part of the Culture & Conflict series, this volume examines the intersection of ancient myth and modern literary form, investigating how novelists harness mythic structures to address philosophical questions about meaning, identity and human experience. The book offers critical analysis of how myth functions as a powerful vehicle for exploring the absolute within the constraints and possibilities of modern narrative, making it essential reading for scholars of literature, philosophy and cultural studies interested in how literary tradition bridges classical and contemporary thought.
