Annotation
This is one of the "Important Books" listed for the guided reading programme at the Faculty of Humanities; as an integral part of the undergraduate liberal curriculum, this programme offers an opportunity to enhance students' knowledge in the humanities and social sciences, and thus helps the students not only to improve their preparation for the compulsory comprehensive exams, but also to gain deeper insight into the subject matters which they pursue in their final bachelor's thesis.
