1000 tulosta hakusanalla Herman Hesse
Encrucijada de todas las obsesiones e intuiciones de HERMANN HESSE (1887-1962) y exponente de su singular talento para el relato, EL LOBO ESTEPARIO se inscribe dentro del empeno, patente a lo largo de toda su obra, por iluminar la zona oscura de la condicion humana a fin de poner al descubierto su carga tragica y su incierto destino. Ser solitario e incomunicado, extrano y extranado, Harry Haller, protagonista de esta emblematica novela, ha acabado convirtiendose en un arquetipo literario en el que se reconocen quienes padecen los devastadores efectos deshumanizadores de una sociedad insolidaria y atomizada."
In Journey to the East "H. H." becomes a member of "The League," a timeless religious sect whose members include famous fictional and real characters, such as Plato, Mozart, Pythagoras, Paul Klee, Don Quixote, Puss in Boots, Tristram Shandy, Baudelaire, Goldmund and the ferryman Vasudeva. A branch of the group goes on a pilgrimage to the East in search of the Truth. The narrator speaks of travelling through both time and space, across geography imaginary and real.But soon the Journey runs into a crisis in a deep mountain gorge called Morbio Inferiore when Leo, apparently a simple servant, disappears, causing the group to plummet into anxiety and argument.Years later the narrator tries to write his story of the Journey, even though he has lost contact with the group and believes the League no longer exists. But the crisis in Morbio Inferiore was only a test of faith.
One of the most acclaimed and best-selling spiritual classics of the twentieth century--now in the Shambhala Pocket Library series. This book chronicles the spiritual evolution of a man living in India at the time of the Buddha--a tale that has inspired generations of readers. We are invited along on Siddhartha's journey experiencing his highs, lows, loves, and disappointments. Hesse begins by showing us the life of a privileged brahmin's son. Handsome, well-loved, and growing increasingly dissatisfied with the life expected of him, Siddhartha sets out on his journey, not realizing that he is fulfilling the prophesies proclaimed at his birth. Siddhartha blends in with the world, showing the reader the beauty and intricacies of the mind, nature, and his experiences on the path to enlightenment. Sherab Ch dzin Kohn's flowing, poetic translation conveys the philosophical and spiritual nuances of Hesse's text, paying special attention to the qualities of meditative experience. Also included is an extensive introduction by Paul W. Morris, a Buddhist scholar and former editor of Tricycle magazine, that discusses the impact Siddhartha has had on American culture.

Jes Wienberg gick i pension våren 2025 efter att under många år ha varit knuten till institutionen för arkeologi och antikens historia vid Lunds universitet. I den här boken adresserar trettionio författare lika många ämnen och forskningsproblem, varav många anknyter till de område som alltid varit i fokus för Jes intresse, det kyrkliga kulturarvet i vid mening. Men här finns även artiklar om kastaler, skattfynd, medeltida keramik och de obesuttnas kulturarv. Bokens författare är alla välrenommerade forskare knutna till universitet, museer och arkeologiska företag runt om i Norden. Vi hoppas att såväl många arkeologer och historiker som en intresserad allmänhet kommer att finna i bokens innehåll lärorikt. Med den här boken vill vi hylla en god vän, en god kollega och en framstående forskare i historisk arkeologi.
"A critical biography far surpassing the previous ones." (Times Higher Education Supplement). "There are to be sure many writers whose biographies are more interesting than their fiction but Hesse is not one of these. He led a long and sometimes eventful life with marital tensions, travel controversy, crises, even some thoughts of suicide and a period of time as a student in a home for retarded and unmanageable. In addition, there was his search which led him through the culture and arts of West and East, his views of politics and society, of psychology and philosophy. The difference between Hesse and other writers is that virtually every shred and patch of his life was brought into his writing, his fiction particularly. 'He had to write about himself and there is little of what he wrote that is not confessional in form and therapeutic in function.' Autobiography is the very matter of his work. Mileck's contribution is to extend and fill out the evidence of his life, his psychoanalysis, his drive toward self-realization which was the very engine of his being, to show the raw material and thus to invite readers to see how it was transmuted, transfigured, fantasized, poeticized, symbolized." (Los Angeles Times). "Hesse was a prolific author for some 60 years, and his mind drew everything it contemplated into his private wars between flesh and spirit. objectivity and subjectivity, the longings for society and isolation. No one is better qualified to disentangle this abundance than Mileck, compiler of the huge two-volume Hesse bibliography. For completeness, then, no biography in English compares." (Kirkus Reviews). "Mileck provides his own translations of the German quotations from Hesse's works, and the eight interpretive chapters are thoroughly indexed, making the work readily accessible to researchers and students concerned with specific Hesse questions and themes. This very readable book also contains a number of exceptional photographs, which, together with Mileck's fervor and understanding of the author, help create a living image of Hesse the man and the artist." (Choice). "Professor Mileck ...brings to his task an acquaintanceship with Hesse's published and unpublished writings ...which borders on omniscience. This is a literary biography which concentrates on the works and looks at the life of its subject briefly and always in relation to its involvement with the works ...[This] is true scholarship, which does not make the book less readable and accessible to the general public...a solid and valuable book which should make it easier ...to bring [Hesse] back into the orbit of serious appreciation in the English-speaking world." (Books and Bookmen).
A collection of twenty-two fairy tales by the Nobel Prize-winning novelist, most translated into English for the first time, show the influence of German Romanticism, psychoanalysis, and Eastern religion on his development as an author. Simultaneous.
This masterful synthesis of criticism and biography surveys all of Hermann Hesse's major works and many of his minor ones in relation to the intricate psychological design of his entire life history. Eugene Stelzig examines what it means to be an "autobiographical writer" by considering Hesse's fictions of the self as an exemplary instance of the relationship between life and art and between biography and autobiography. In a graceful and inviting style, he frees this major confessional writer from the confines of German culture and the status of "cult figure" of the 1960s, and situates him in the tradition of world literature and in a variety of literary, psychological, philosophical, and religious contexts. Three introductory chapters on autobiography and Hesse set the stage for a chronological study. Then follows a penetrating analysis of the balance between biographical fact and confessional fantasy in Hesse's long career, from the failed autobiography of his first literary success, Beneath the Wheel, through the protracted midlife crisis of the grotesque Steppenwolf period, to the visionary autobiography of his magisterial fictional finale, The Glass Bead Game. Originally published in 1988. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
