Abstract

For as long as political theory and political philosophy have existed time immemorial, the concept of the hero has not been adequately treated. Although this appears to be the case, the surface does not reveal the entire truth, and fact does not fit fiction. The concept of the hero in political theory has existed indirectly. The concept of the hero and hero-worship has been applied to all walks of life and all forms of fiction, fantasy, and reality. This study explains the evolution of the concept of the hero in terms of Western philosophy and focuses on how it has evolved over the centuries. There can be no hero without the anti-hero and no victory without defeat.
