Siddhartha, en indisk brahmanpojke, lämnar sin faders gård och de gamla gudarna för att leva i självövervinnelse och askes. Men inte heller förnekelsen tillfredsställer hans längtan efter fulländning, och han ger sig ut i världen för att söka livets mening. Han blir framgångsrik och förmögen, en livsnjutare som lär sig den sinnliga kärlekens alla möjligheter hos kurtisanen Kamala. Men ledan, och smärtan när en älskad son glider ifrån honom, driver återigen Siddhartha ut på vandring, mot en tillvaro som rymmer verklig kunskap och kärlek till världen som den är.

Siddhartha

Harry Haller, hovedpersonen i fortællingen om Steppeulven, deler forbogstav med sin forfatter. Han er en ulv i menneskeklæder: udadtil anstændig og dannet, men bag den ensomme tænkers og litterats borgerlige ydre rører de dyriske drifter på sig. Hovedpersonen Harry Haller, Steppeulven, er dybt splittet mellem drift og ånd, men på sine nattevandringer og værtshusbesøg møder Harry Haller luderen Hermine, der tvinger ham fra selvmordstankerne og lærer ham at elske. Han helbredes i kærlighedens skole under kyndig vejledning af Hermine, halvt en prostitueret, halvt et arketypisk symbol. Romanen skildrer, hvordan han trækkes ind i et karnevalsagtigt virvar af dans og erotik, og hvordan et nyt liv hinsides godt og ondt kan rejse sig af det gamles ruiner. Steppeulven er blevet nyoversat af René Jean Jensen og udgives med forord af Ib Michael. Lydbogen er indlæst af Torsten Adler

Steppeulven

In the novel, Siddhartha, a young man, leaves his family for a contemplative life, then, restless, discards it for one of the flesh. He conceives a son, but bored and sickened by lust and greed, moves on again. Near despair, Siddhartha comes to a river where he hears a unique sound. This sound signals the true beginning of his life -- the beginning of suffering, rejection, peace, and, finally, wisdom

Hesse's debut book. The novel uniquely describes the subterranean anxieties of the youth who sacrificed themselves at the slaughter of the Great War, between fatuous well-being, the absence of a future and the waiting of history. The genius, in all the manifold manifestations of the mind, finds in its perennial actuality one of its fundamental postulates. The book was a publishing case that shocked Europe: the young people who had returned from the great war saw themselves represented so well and with such accuracy that they believed that the author, precisely under a pseudonym, was their contemporary, one as their survivor of the carnage of trench. The work was welcomed by an almost unanimous consensus even in the swampy milieu of continental culture: Thomas Mann called it a small masterpiece, regretting that it could not contact that mysterious author hidden under a false name. A book that attempts an existential path very similar to what we are looking for today.

Siddhartha (Illustrated)

Hermann Hesses Eventyr er inspireret af de klassiske eventyr med deres evige livsvisdom og fantasi, men bærer også præg af den “indre rejse” forfatteren foretog i disse år mellem 1913 og 1918. I de tidlige eventyr, Augustus, Digteren og Fløjtedrøm, finder man tydelige spor af østlig filosofi og digtning. Mærkværdige beretninger er et udtryk for pacifisten Hesses syn på krigens absurditet og rædsel, som forudså han allerede den krig som skulle hjemsøge Europa. I de to drømmetekster, Den tunge vej og En drøm, er det underbevidstheden som taler om det at finde vej, om hvad skæbne og frihed kan være. Mens Faldum i nærmest klassisk eventyrstil handler om hvad mennesket ønsker sig af tilværelsen, beskriver det lille mesterværk Iris den indre rejse Hesse selv foretog i en personlig krisetid, hvor han gik i jungiansk analyse. Hesses eventyr er derfor ikke kun smukke og poetiske, de har også et skær af noget barskt og uhyggeligt, hvor det poetiske billedsprog står i skarp kontrast til tilværelsens grusomhed. Det eventyragtige får en dimension af sjælegys og ubønhørlig livserfaring, som ikke kan undgå at bevæge læseren.

Eventyr

Hermann Karl Hesse (1877 –1962) was a German-born poet, novelist, and painter who received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946. His best-known works include Demian, Steppenwolf, and ‘Siddhartha’, a novel that deals with the spiritual journey of self-discovery of a man named Siddhartha during the time of the Gautama Buddha. The structure of the novel reflects three of the traditional stages of life for Hindu males (student, householder and recluse) as well as the Buddha's four noble truths and eight-fold path. The narrative of “Siddharta’ contains a blend of Buddhist precepts, Jungian archetypes and Western individualism. Since the publication of the English translation in 1951, the novel has had an enormous influence on popular culture, especially rock music.

I Demian står hovedpersonen, Emil Sinclair, mellem to verdener. Den ene er hjemmets – bibel, pligt, dårlig samvittighed og fast orden. Den anden er syndens og kønnets dunkle, kaotiske og truende verden. Gennem vennen Max Demian, hans gode dæmon, der er tilhænger af guden Abraxas, lærer han at acceptere kaos i sig selv og derigennem frigøre sig fra moderhjemmet og blive voksen. Da Hermann Hesse døde i 1962, 85 år gammel, omfattede hans forfatterskab 40 bøger, romaner, fortællinger, digte og betragtninger, oversat til 40 sprog og udkommet i mere end 70 millioner eksemplarer. Mest berømt er han for sine romaner Demian, Steppeulven, Siddhartha, Sol og måne og den utopiske fremtidsroman Glasperlespillet, der i 1946 indbragte ham Nobelprisen i litteratur. Det magiske ungdomsvenskab mellem Sinclair og Demian er en skildring af uforglemmelig skønhed. – Tom Kristensen

De Steppewolf is het symbool voor de figuur Harry Haller, die als een wrede wolf eenzaam door de steppe van deze wereld doolt, ertegen in opstand komt, overal doorheen wil breken. Het is een tocht door donkere labyrinten van hartstocht, laster, twijfel, nihilisme en tot de rand van zelfmoord leidende walging. Het verhaal biedt niet zoals Siddharta een harmonische oplossing, maar eindigt ook niet vertwijfeld. Haller begint het leven opnieuw. Hij wordt zich bewust dat achter alle verschijnselen in deze wereld tijdloos en onaantastbaar de ideeën staan, dat er een hogere, onvergankelijke wereld is van waaruit de geest tot de mensen spreekt en een gouden spoor trekt door het warrige duister. Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) ontving in 1946 de Nobelprijs voor Literatuur. Tot zijn beroemdste romans horen Demian, Siddharta, Narziss en Goldmund en Het Kralenspel.

De Steppewolf

Siddhartha is het verhaal van een brahmanenzoon die zijn leven wijdt aan het zoeken naar het ware zelf. Als asceet in de bergen mediteert en vast hij, maar vindt de waarheid niet. Zwervend als bedelmonnik hoort hij spreken over de Boeddha, maar ook de grote Meester kan hem de waarheid niet geven. Dan stort hij zich in het wereldse leven, wordt minnaar van de courtisane Kamala, verwerft rijkdom en bezit, totdat hij voelt hierin ten onder te zullen gaan; en opnieuw wordt hij bedelaar. Geleid door het heilige Om komt Siddhartha ten slotte aan de grote rivier, symbool van harmonie en vergankelijkheid. In de hut van de oude veerman leert hij de wereld der dingen lief te hebben en te begrijpen. Van een steen kan ik houden, en ook van een boom of een stuk schors. Het zijn tastbare zaken, en van wat tastbaar is kan men houden. Maar van woorden kan ik niet houden. Daarom zie ik niets in een leer. Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) ontving in 1946 de Nobelprijs voor Literatuur. Tot zijn beroemdste romans horen Demian, De steppewolf, Narziss en Goldmund en Het Kralenspel.

Narziss en Goldmund is een van de beste en meest geliefde romans van de Duitse schrijver Hermann Hesse. De filosofische roman gaat over de confrontatie tussen de intellectuele Narziss en de artistieke Goldmund en speelt zich af in de middeleeuwen. De gedisciplineerde Narziss overtuigt zijn rusteloze vriend Goldmund zijn hart te volgen en zijn leven in het klooster vaarwel te zeggen. De jonge Goldmund trekt vervolgens de wijde wereld in, op zoek naar schoonheid, genegenheid en spanning. Hij leidt een bewogen liefdesleven en lijkt even rust gevonden te hebben als beeldhouwer, maar het avontuur blijft lonken. Wanneer hij op een dag in hachelijke omstandigheden verzeild raakt, duikt tot zijn grote verbazing zijn goede vriend Narziss weer op. Narziss en Goldmund is een roman over een bewogen en ongemakkelijke vriendschap tussen twee mannen die elkaars uitersten zijn. Een avontuurlijk verhaal over het innerlijke conflict tussen geest en lichaam, logos en eros. Een cultroman die door elke generatie opnieuw ontdekt wordt.

Narziss en Goldmund

“When someone seeks, then it easily happens his eyes see only the thing he seeks, and he is able to find nothing, to take in nothing because he always thinks only about the thing he is seeking. He has but one goal, because he is obsessed with his goal. Seeking means: having a goal. But finding means: being free, being open, having no goal.” FROM SIDDHARTHA Siddhartha is the iconic novel by Hermann Hesse which deals with a spiritual journey of self-discovery of a young Indian man during the time of Gautama Buddha. The classic book, written in 1922, was Hesse's ninth novel, and was written in German, in his charmingly simple, lyrical style. It was later published in the United States in 1951 and became greatly influential during the 1960s. An inspirational audio adventure of the spirit.

Siddhartha is an allegorical novel by Hermann Hesse which deals with the spiritual journey of an Indian boy called Siddhartha during the time of the Buddha. The book, Hesse's ninth novel, was written in German, in a simple, yet powerful and lyrical, style. It was first published in 1922, after Hesse had spent some time in India in the 1910s. It was published in the U.S. in 1951 and became influential during the 1960s. The word Siddhartha is made up of two words in the Sanskrit language, siddha (gotten) + artha (meaning or wealth). The two words together mean "one who has found meaning (of existence)" or "he who has attained his goals". The Buddha's name, before his renunciation, was Prince Siddhartha Gautama, later the Buddha. In this book, the Buddha is referred to as "Gotama"

Hermann Hessen romaani "Peter Camenzind" (1904) on syvällinen ja itseanalysoiva tarina nuoren miehen, Peterin, matkasta itseensä ja elämän merkityksen etsimiseen. Teos sekoittaa filosofisia pohdintoja ja lyyrisyyttä, mikä tekee siitä merkittävän osan saksalaista kirjallisuutta. Hesse käyttää rikasta ja symbolista kieltä, luoden eläviä kuvastoja luonnosta ja ihmismielen syvyyksistä. Kirja on aikansa intellektuaalisten ja taiteellisten liikkeiden, kuten romantismin ja varhaisen modernismin, yhteydessä, ja se heijastelee Hessen omaa taiteellista kehitystä ja maailmankuvaa. Hermann Hesse (1877–1962) oli saksalais-sveitsiläinen kirjailija, joka voitti Nobel-palkinnon vuonna 1946. Hesse kasvoi kulttuurisessa perheessä, jossa kirjallisuus, taide ja filosofia olivat keskiössä. Hänen nuoruutensa ja varhaiset kokemuksensa, kuten ristiriidat perheessä ja henkinen etsintä, vaikuttivat merkittävästi "Peter Camenzind"-kirjan syntyyn. Hesse oli lisäksi kiinnostunut itämaisista uskontoja ja psykologisista teorioista, jotka näkyvät kirjan syvällisessä pohdinnassa. "Peter Camenzind" on suositeltava lukeminen kaikille, jotka etsivät syvällisiä pohdintoja ihmisen olemassaolosta ja itsensä löytämisestä. Kirja tarjoaa lukijalle unohtumatonta kauneutta ja tunteita, ja se haastaa syvällisiä kysymyksiä identiteetistä ja suhteesta maailmaan. Hesse onnistuu yhdistämään filosofian ja kaunokirjallisuuden, mikä tekee teoksesta ajankohtaisen ja relevantin myös nykylukijalle.

Peter Camenzind

Hermann Hessen romaani "Peter Camenzind" on taitava kuvaus nuoren miehen sisäisestä matkasta itsensä löytämiseen ja olemassaolon merkityksen pohdintaan. Kirja, joka julkaistiin ensimmäisen kerran vuonna 1904, yhdistää realistisia ja romanttisia elementtejä, ja sen kerronta on syvällistä ja runollista. Hesse käyttää Kamenziinin tarinaa ilmentääkseen nuoruuden tuskaa, unelmia ja epävarmuutta, samalla korostaen luontosuhteen merkitystä. Teoksen arvoja vahvistaa Hessen elävä kerrontatyyli, joka yhdistää filosofian ja taiteen, ja se heijastelee aikansa kulttuurista muutosta ja saksalaisen kirjallisuuden suuntauksia. Hermann Hesse (1877–1962) oli saksalainen kirjailija ja runoilija, joka voitti Nobelin kirjallisuuspalkinnon vuonna 1946. Hänen omat kokemuksensa, mukaan lukien nuoruuden ristiriidat ja kiinnostus itämaiseen filosofiaan, ovat vahvasti läsnä teoksessa. Hesse pyrki ymmärtämään ihmisen sisäistä maailmaa, ja "Peter Camenzind" on merkittävä askel hänen myöhemmässä kehityksessään, jossa teemojen käsittely syvenee. Suosittelen "Peter Camenzindia" kaikille, jotka etsivät syvällistä ja ajatuksia herättävää lukukokemusta. Teos tarjoaa ainutlaatuisen ikkunan nuoren miehen olemassaolon kysymyksiin, ja sen runollinen kieli ja voimakkaat teemat tekevät siitä ajankohtaisen edelleen. Hesseen tutustuminen avaa myös uusia ulottuvuuksia ymmärtää ihmisen psykologista kehitystä ja kulttuurista kontekstia.
