The New Patricians: An Essay on Values and Consciousness

R.W.K. Paterson

4.9/5 (26959 ratings)

Description:This book expounds a set of values that the author styles patrician. It is simultaneously a critique of plebeian attitudes to life. The figures of the patrician and the plebeian do not represent different social classes, but are rather personifications of sharply contrasting beliefs and responses that any individual may evince. Dr. Paterson argues that the main issues we face are within our own consciousness and are to be resolved by transforming our self-images, rather than by changing the external world. Our experiences are not mere brute occurrences but are pregnant with symbolism, which we can construe to reveal hope, opportunity and purposiveness, or meaninglessness, sterility and disenchantment. This we do through our feelings and emotions, but above all through the quality and intensity of our imagination.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
