Eidola (eBook)

In 'Eidola', Frederic Manning delves into the intricate weaving of human perceptions and philosophical musings, offering a unique exploration of existence through a blend of poignant narratives and reflective prose. This special edition, presented by DigiCat Publishing, breathes new life into Manning's lesser-known work, ensuring its preservation as a classic. The text's literary style is characteristically Manning, with an emphasis on introspective depth and an eloquent voice that echoes the intellectual zeitgeist of early 20th-century literature. It is a remarkable piece that frames its analysis of the self within the broader spectrum of worldly ephemera, a characteristic trait of modernist literature of which Manning is an often overlooked proponent.
Frederic Manning, known primarily for his powerful war literature, particularly 'The Middle Parts of Fortune', brings the same authenticity and psychological finesse to 'Eidola'. Manning's own experiences as an erudite scholar and soldier during World War I undoubtedly influenced his thematic choices and existential contemplations. His work encapsulates the turmoil of his era, reflecting the paradigmatic shift in human thought patterns emerging from the chaos of conflict to question the nature of reality and identity.
Eidola is a must-read for those who cherish literary gems that transcend their time. It provides readers with a profound glimpse into the human condition, through the lens of a historically pivotal period. Scholars and literary enthusiasts alike will find this republished work both enlightening and essential, as it exemplifies Manning's intellectual legacy. DigiCat's commitment to revitalization of such texts not only preserves the cultural heritage encapsulated within their pages but also invites a new generation to engage with ideas that continue to resonate with contemporary audiences.
