| dc.description | This thesis focuses on investigating the Hegelian Master-Slave Dialectics and its manifestation in the representation of the Byronic Hero in selected narrative and dramatic verses of Lord Byron. As an interdisciplinary research, it attempts at drawing attention to how Byronic Hero acquires knowledge and becomes self-conscious. The research corpus centres on the narrative verses which are Mazeppa, the Prisoner of Chillon, The Corsair and Lara, and the dramatic verses, which are Sardanapalus, The Two Foscari, Marino Faliero and The Werner. The Byronic Hero who is the well-known creation of Lord Byron will be observed within the mentioned poetical works by adapting Hegel's Master-Slave Dialectics. This theory is one of the most notable theories of Hegel, which is presented in "The Phenomenology of Spirit". The analytical framework of Hegelian Master-Slave Dialectics that is used for the investigation is primarily based on the notions of lordship/bondage and dependency/independency as revealed in three stages, mainly, confrontation, recognition, and acceptance and the three phases of thesis, antithesis and synthesis. These stages clarify how the two consciousnesses confront struggle to survive or to establish superiority, recognise and accept each other and attain self-consciousness. Hegel emphasises that discussing lordship/bondage shows that the struggle and conflict are ubiquitous, and they are playing fundamental roles to determine and to declare the freedom and independency of consciousness. The analysis focuses on identifying the Hegelian Dialectics in the interactions and communications between the Byronic Hero and characters and environment in each of the works selected as the research corpus. Such interactions and relationships are associated with gender, political issues and social class. Each of the three contexts involves characters and environment whose connections to the Byronic Hero are identified and analysed based on the three stages of Hegelian Master-Slave Dialectics. The findings indicate that the strong Master-Slave Dialectics in each of the stages and phases of the verses studied reveal that the Byronic Hero becomes in effect the slave to those in both subordinate and power positions. The implications of this study are thus important as they present data that can contribute significantly to establish a scholarship on the Byronic hero.,Ph.D. | - |
