Abstract

Unamuno, therefore, had a twofold purpose in writing novels. He wanted to delve into the soul of the person to find out what struggle caused his personality, and then he wanted to see how this struggle effected the individual's attitude towards death and eternal life.

The purpose of this study is to see how well Unamuno succeeded in carrying out these two central themes, first, intimately, in his own character; second, remotely, in the character of his reader; and third, creatively, in the characters of his novels.
