Descripción
Sumario:René Girard's "Mimetic Theory" explains why we desire what we desire and how conflict appears. This book looks into how we imitate others' desires, what can trigger rivalry and violence. Learn about the scapegoat mechanism underlying cultures and the profound cultural effect brought forth by Christianity, which uniquely stands with the innocent victim. Through examples from literature, philosophy, and religion, gain insight into these core concepts and their wide-ranging implications for society and understanding human nature.
