Exploring the often overlooked virtue of hope, Terry Eagleton critiques optimism as a mere rationalization rather than a true understanding of reality. He delves into the nuances of hope, questioning its nature and how it contrasts with desire, while considering its potential to idealize the future. Eagleton introduces the concept of tragic hope, suggesting it embodies resilience and strength that persists even in the face of profound loss, offering a fresh perspective on this complex emotion.
