Abstract

The life of Gyorgy Lukacs on, in an amazing way, in a few sentences of his Théorie sur le Roman (Theory of the Novel), published in 1916. In it he says: “(O) tragic hero replaces the living man of Homer, [...] because he gets it that the flame is fading and he does shine again.” Titled “Les civilizations closes, this essay explores the world of epic, that of a metaphysical unity breathable for all.
