Narcissus and Goldmund de Hermann Hesse

Narcissus and Goldmund: Penguin Modern Classics

Autor Hermann Hesse
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 apr 2017
'One of his masterpieces . . . without doubt a great novel'Guardian

One of Hermann Hesse's greatest novels,Narcissus and Goldmundis an extraordinary recreation of the Middle Ages, contrasting the careers of two friends, one of whom shuns life in a monastery and goes on the road, tangled in the extremes of life in a world dominated by sin, plague and war, the other staying in the monastery and struggling, with equal difficulty, to lead a life of spiritual denial.

An superb feat of imagination,Narcissus and Goldmundcan only be compared to such films set in medieval Europe as Bergman'sThe Seventh Sealand Tarkovsky'sAndrei Rublev. It is a gripping, profound reading experience - as startling, in its different way, as Hesse'sSiddharthaandSteppenwolf.

Notă biografică

HERMANN HESSE was born in Calw, Germany, in 1877. As a child, he lived for a time in Basle. He spent a short period studying at a seminary in Germany but soon left to work as a bookseller in Switzerland. From 1904 he devoted himself to writing. After a first volume of verse (1899), Hesse established his reputation with a series of lyrical romantic novels-Peter Camenzind (1904), Unterm Rad (The Prodigy, 1906), Gertrud (1910) and the short story, Knulp (1915). After a visit to India in 1911 he moved to Switzerland and worked for the Red Cross during the First World War. He was denounced in Germany and settled permanently in Switzerland, where he established himself as one of the greatest literary figures in the German-speaking world. His humanity, his searching philosophy developed further in such novels as Siddhartha (1922), Der Steppenwolf (1927), Narziss and Goldmund (1930) and Das Glasperlenspiel (The Glass Bead Game, 1943), while his poems and critical writings won him a leading place among contemporary thinkers. Hesse won many literary awards, including the Nobel Prize in 1946. He died in 1962, shortly after his eighty-fifth birthday.

Recenzii

One of his masterpieces . . . without doubt a great novel
At the medieval monastery of Mariabronn, the restless Goldmund realises he isn't cut out for a cloistered life under the tutelage of his friend and mentor, the ascetic Narziss, and so begins a series of travels that see him work his way through most of the seven deadly sins before finding a psychic resolution of sorts in an apprenticeship to a master sculptor.Only by feeding his appetite for worldly experience does Goldmund finally find the courage to face death.
