Description
""Youth and Egolatry"" is a novel written by Pio Baroja, a Spanish writer. The book is a coming-of-age story that follows the life of a young man named Fernando Ossorio who is from a wealthy family. The story takes place in Madrid during the early 20th century, a time when Spain was undergoing significant changes.Fernando is a sensitive and introspective young man who is struggling to find his place in the world. He is torn between his desire to live a carefree life and his sense of duty to his family. He is also deeply affected by the political and social upheavals that are taking place around him.As Fernando navigates his way through the complexities of youth, he becomes increasingly obsessed with his own ego and begins to see himself as the center of the universe. This egocentric worldview leads him down a dangerous path, and he begins to make decisions that have far-reaching consequences.Throughout the novel, Baroja explores themes of youth, identity, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. He also delves into the darker aspects of the human psyche, including narcissism and self-destruction.Overall, ""Youth and Egolatry"" is a thought-provoking and insightful novel that offers a compelling look at the challenges of growing up in a complex and ever-changing world.Such are the words of the psychologist, DuBois-Reymond, in one of his well-known lectures. The agnostic attitude is the most seemly that it is possible to take. Nowadays, not only have all religious ideas been upset, but so too has everything which until now appeared most solid, most indivisible. Who has faith any longer in the atom? Who believes in the soul as a monad? Who believes in the objective validity of the senses?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
