The Authentic Unconscious Reference Notes Index of Names 330 8 $aSurveys Western literature and thought to reveal the evolution of the ideals of sincerity and authenticity.$b"Now and then," writes Lionel Triling "it is possible to observe the moral life in process of revising itself." In this new book he is concerned with such a mutation: the process by which the arduous enterprise of sincerity, of being true to one's self, came to occupy a place of supreme importance in the moral life--and the further shift which finds that place now usurped by the darker and still more strenuous modern ideal of authenticity. Instances range over the whole of Western literature and thought, from Shakespeare to Hegel to Sartre, from Robespierre to R.D. Laing, suggesting the contradictions and ironies to which the ideals of sincerity and authenticity give rise, most especially in contemporary life. Lucid, and brilliantly framed, its view of cultural history will give Sincerity and Authenticity an important place among the works of this distinguished critic. 606 $aSincerity 606 $aAuthenticity (Philosophy) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSincerity. 615 0$aAuthenticity (Philosophy) 676 $a179/.9 700 $aTrilling$b Lionel$f1905-1975.$0159851 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455382303321 996 $aSincerity and authenticity$9182565 997 $aUNINA
