The Age of Defeat explores the decline of the heroic ideal in Western culture and its broader implications for humanity. Colin Wilson presents his New Existentialism, a robust philosophy aimed at rekindling the notion of Man as a hero, emphasizing the extraordinary potential within individuals. Written in the mid-20th century, it addresses the contemporary crisis of identity and masculinity, urging a reevaluation of what it means to be a Man amidst cultural ambiguity and insignificance.
