dc.description.abstract | IV Abstract Throughout history, individuals who tended to undergo the sinews of such extraordinary journeys towards the unknown were to be glorified and circumambulated in their countries. Hence, their valiant endeavor to survive in the multitudinousnesses of complexities and to escape the ultimate dead ends is often engraved in the screen of mind of their peoples as they are kept twinkling just like stars over generations. In this respect, The Road by Cormac McCarthy has received paramount success in the world. It has often been characterized as a post-apocalyptic literary genre, yet it is more about journey literature, which is the crux of the matter behind achieving the present research. Throughout the current research, we tried to encapsulate the historical background of the topic which is of high significance as far as such trends “apocalyptic, post-apocalyptic, journey literature“are concerned. The second part was consecrated solely to the study of the novel as we tried to approach one of the core concerns of the Road, survival. This theme was depicted and analyzed from different angles for the sake elucidating the authenticity and the originality of our work. | en_US |
