Tragedy and the Whole Truth: Aldous Huxley
このQ&Aのポイント
- Rarely do older literatures reveal the complete truth, only providing fragments of it. This is true for great writers of the past as well, with Homer being an exception. In his Odyssey, Homer presents the whole truth.
- The phrase 'Of the great writers of the past incredibly few have given us that' can be rephrased as 'Few of the great writers of the past incredibly have given us that.' The 'that' refers to the whole truth.
- The phrase 'Bits of the truth, yes; every good book gives us bits of the truth' contrasts with 'But the whole truth, no.' It implies that while there are books that contain fragments of the truth, there are no books that contain the complete truth.
