Kondrakov, S. A. Longing for the Golden Age in George Moor’s Novel
‘Confession of a Young Man’
Abstract:
Longing fo the Golden Age is becoming one of the
most important elements of cultural reß ection at the turn of
centuries. A bright example is a novel written by an English
and Irish author George Moor (1852–1933) called ‘Confessions
of a Young Man’ (written in 1888). Describing the years spent
by the author in Paris, this novel raises a unique cultural issue
depicted by Moor as longing for the lost harmony of abundant
life free of the tyrany of time and morals.Being compared with
the modern age, the Golden Age image acualizes the motive of
‘cultural unsatisfaction’ which allows to view ‘Confesssions of a
Young Man’ in terms of Modern mythopoetics.
Keywords:
