Abstract

In analyzing what seemed to me the two great endeavors of human life, love and work, I have tried to provide a framework for the understanding of consciousness through the progression of the four tropes of metaphor, metonymy, synedoche, and irony, as well as the four literary stages of romance, tragedy, comedy, and irony.
