One of his masterpieces . . . without doubt a great novel GuardianOne of Hermann Hesse s greatest novels, Narcissus and Goldmund is 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 Goldmund can only be compared to such films set in medieval Europe as Bergman s The Seventh Seal and Tarkovsky s Andrei Rublev. It is a gripping, profound reading experience - as startling, in its different way, as Hesse s Siddhartha and Steppenwolf.

V roce 1920 vyšly pod titulem Klingsor poprvé tři povídky Hermanna Hesseho, pozdějšího nositele Nobelovy ceny za literaturu. Na první pohled se jeví dosti různorodé, a přece mají jedno společné: vztah k expresionismu. Povídka Klein a Wagner je patrně autorovým nejexpresionističtějším textem, rozdvojením hrdiny se do ní promítá Hesseho zkušenost s psychoanalýzou i nevole k měšťáckému světu. V Dětské duši reflektuje Hesse z pohledu dospělého zážitek z vlastního dětství. V povídce Klingsorovo poslední léto se bezesporu odrazila velká změna, která se udála v Hesseho životě: Jeho první žena Maria Bernoulli byla trvale hospitalizována pro schizofrenii, manželství se rozpadlo, Hesse byl propuštěn z oddělení péče o válečné zajatce, Německo ovládl zhoubný nacionalismus a Hesse přesídlil do slunné Montagnoly ve švýcarském kantonu Ticino, kde našel nejen nový domov, ale i novou lásku k malířce a zpěvačce Ruth Wengerové. Prostřednictvím hlavní postavy, osamělého malíře, Hesse zkoumá umělectví jako možnost a způsob existence. Klingsor vyděšený blížící se smrtí se snaží prožít zbývající čas co nejlépe a nejradostněji, cele se oddává umění, noci tráví u vína a v náručí žen. Povídka vrcholí Klingsorovým posledním uměleckým počinem, autoportrétem, který jako by byl zpodobněním mnoha tváří. Hernann Hesse (1877-1962) je nejvydávanějším německým autorem 20. století, mnohá jeho díla dosáhla milionových nákladů. Intenzita jeho působení se po 2. světové válce výrazně zvyšovala od 50. let nejprve v Koreji a v Japonsku, posléze v 60. a 70. letech obzvláště v USA. Pro mladou generaci se Hesse nechtěně stal jakýmsi guru, mladí z něho čerpali inspiraci pro svůj boj proti autoritám, pro odmítání utilitárnosti západní civilizace, přejímali jeho intenzivní vztah k přírodě, k východním filozofiím a náboženstvím atd. Hesse však v podstatě nikdy neopustil svou křesťanskožidovskou orientaci a dalšími vlivy ji pouze obohacoval.

An insight into the life and mind of an icon of American art through the diaries of sculptor Eva Hesse. â ˜I open my new book. What will you tell for the next year. To bring forth a new chapter of wisdom, hopes, joys fears. I shall be honest with myself; and therewith SUCCEED.â ™ These lines open Eva Hesseâ ™s 1955 diary and lay out the task of her writing. In between weekly to-do lists and personal musings, Hesse used her diaries as a space to process her experience of the world and to reckon with what it means to be an artist. In this extensive collection of Hesseâ ™s diaries, recorded from 1955 to 1970, readers are given an intimate glimpse into the mind of one of contemporary sculptureâ ™s most prominent figures. Despite personal tragedies and the difficulties she faced as one of the few female artists in the male-dominated postminimalist movement, Hesse remained intrepid in both her life and craft. Composed of twisted ropes and delicate plastic among other unconventional materials, Hesseâ ™s sculptures defy traditional notions of form; her deeply thoughtful practice as a sculptor and a painter are revealed at length in her writing.

Žádný německý autor 20. století nenadchl více čtenářů než Hermann Hesse. Jeho dílo je součástí světové literatury. Renomovaný novinář Heimo Schwilk napsal skvělý životopis básníka, který žil stejně intenzivně a rozporuplně jako hrdinové jeho románů. Kniha o propastech rozervané osobnosti, o krizích a triumfech, o lásce a jejím selhání. Hermann Hesse zemřel 9. srpna 1962 ve věku 85 let. Zanechal dílo čítající bezmála 40 titulů vydávaných po celém světě v úctyhodných 125 miliónech exemplářů. Jen v zemích německé jazykové oblasti se prodalo téměř 25 miliónů jeho knih. Dosud byla publikována přibližně sedmina z jeho 35 000 dopisů. Hesseho recenze obsahují pět svazků, sekundární literatura k jeho životu a dílu plní celé regály. Od jeho smrti byly vydány nesčetné svazky s materiály k jeho tvorbě. Navzdory této široké bázi pramenů překvapuje základní tón utvářených soudů, který se v posledních desetiletích téměř nezměnil. Kdo se Hermannem Hessem zabývá, narazí záhy na celou řadu klišé, kterými se lidé pokouší vysvětlit iritující, ba přímo nesmírný úspěch tohoto autora. Hesse je podle těchto soudů básník mládeže a protestu, buřič proti jakékoli autoritě a zastánce maximálního individualismu. Jeho fenomenální úspěch v USA v období války ve Viet­namu se přičítá hluboce pacifistickému charakteru jeho humanis­mu inspirovaného Dálným východem. Masové rozšíření jeho knih v Japonsku, Číně a Koreji se vysvětluje jeho funkcí prostředníka mezi kulturami. V Německu je vnímán na jedné straně jako ostýchavý, schizoidní out­sider (Stepní vlk), na druhé straně jako osvícený kritik ,černé pedagogiky‘ (Pod koly). Pomáhají však taková klišé fenomén Hesse opravdu pochopit? Je jeho komplexní, fascinující dílo skutečně výrazem veskrze anarchistické povahy? Je načase ukázat, co je vlastně na Hermannu Hessem tak fascinující.

A modernist work of profound wisdom that continues to enthral readers with its subtle blend of Eastern mysticism and Western culture, the Penguin Modern Classics edition of Hermann Hesse s Steppenwolf is revised by Walter Sorell from the original translation by Basil Creighton.At first sight Harry Haller seems a respectable, educated man. In reality he is the Steppenwolf: wild, strange, alienated from society and repulsed by the modern age. But as he is drawn into a series of dreamlike and sometimes savage encounters - accompanied by, among others, Mozart, Goethe and the bewitching Hermione - the misanthropic Haller discovers a higher truth, and the possibility of happiness. This blistering portrayal of a man who feels himself to be half-human and half-wolf was the bible of the 1960s counterculture, capturing the mood of a disaffected generation, and remains a haunting story of estrangement and redemption.Herman Hesse (1877 - 1962) suffered from depression and weathered series of personal crises which led him to undergo psychoanalysis with J. B. Lang; a process which resulted in Demian (1919), a novel whose main character is torn between the orderliness of bourgeois existence and the turbulent and enticing world of sensual experience. This dichotomy is prominent in Hesse s subsequent novels, including Siddhartha (1922), Steppenwolf (1927), Narcissus and Goldmund (1930) and his magnum opus, The Glass Bead Game (1943). Hesse was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946.If you enjoyed Steppenwolf, you might like Hesse s Siddhartha, also available in Penguin Classics.

I loved it Lucy Jones, author of MatrescenceIn the summer of 2020, when Amanda Hess was pregnant for the first time, a routine ultrasound screening detected a mysterious abnormality in her baby. Without hesitation, she reached for her phone, looking for answers online. But rather than allaying her anxieties, her search unleashed a destabilizing onslaught of data and technology, and she was vulnerable - more than ever - to conspiracy, myth, judgement, commerce and obsession. In Second Life, Hess tells her deeply personal story of a pregnancy that falls outside the fêted category of normal . But this is also a story about all of us. For as she made her way through a bizarre digital world of pregnancy apps, prenatal genetic tests, gender reveal videos, rare disease Facebook groups, freebirth influencers and hospital reality shows, Hess realised that ideas of eugenics, surveillance, ableism and hyper-individualism are being sold through shiny technologies to a new generation of parents.At once funny, surreal and heartbreaking, Second Life asks compelling questions about how our most fundamental human experiences are fractured and reshaped by technology.

Patnáct drobnějších próz je tematicky i časově spjato s pozdním obdobím tvorby tohoto nositele Nobelovy ceny za literaturu. Svá nejzákladnější celoživotní témata v nich vybrousil v miniaturní slovesné klenoty. V črtě Štěstí Hesse přináší stručný, leč zásadní komentář k tomu nejdůležitějšímu ve svém životě a díle: na duchovním základě křesťanském i orientálním si vypěstoval odolnost vůči uhranutí takzvaným pokrokem nebo smyslem dějin a objevil smysl cykličnosti, jejíž osou je věčná vertikála . V Přerušené vyučovací hodině se vyznává z pocitu, jako by mu všechny pokusy o smysluplné vyprávění protekly mezi prsty, ale právě na této hranici začíná moderní literární tvorba. Žebrák vypráví o samotě plné obrazů, o hře s nimi. Ukradený kufr je povídka, za niž by se nemusel stydět ani Čechov, tématem je lidské pinožení se za majetkem - na čem všem jsou lidičkové schopni lpět. Broskvoň je podobenstvím o životě a smrti, vepsané do osudu plodného ovocného stromu.

Kniha je druhým dílem Antologie Divoké víno 1964-2007 V deseti kapitolách odpovídajících letům 2007-2017 přináší to nejlepší ze stránek Divokého vína, literárního a uměleckého časopisu založeného v roce 1964. Vydavatel časopisu Ludvík Hess zřizuje od roku 2005 babyboxy, a tak čtenáři předkládá i výčet 70 bedýnek a půl druhé stovky do nich odložených nechtěných lidských mláďat. Aby deset let svého života zobrazil co nejvěrněji, přidává vyprávění o koních, kteří se narodili v jeho hřebčíně, a o dětech narozených jeho ženám. Texty jsou plné erotiky, která je Ludvíku Hessovi blízká a pochopitelně ji vyzdvihuje taky u autorů svého časopisu. Básníci Divokého vína Jiří Žáček, Karel Sýs, Jaroslav Holoubek, Petr Cincibuch, Pavel Verner, Václav Bárta a desítky ostatních neskrývají svůj dobrý vztah k erotice, ale zřetelně ukazují, jakými rozzlobenými muži dokážou být. Výtvarníci a fotografové Jindřich Štreit, Pavel Jasanský, Pavel Hudec Ahasver, Oldřich Kulhánek, Milan Kuzica, Jan Reich, Tomáš Hřivnáč a další s literáty rezonují.

What does it mean to live a life of completeness? And how far must one go to understand the pain of others? Is change truly possible? This is the story that proves that it is. In what could be described as equal parts self-help book and a novelistic guide to spiritual awakening, Siddhartha has been hailed as prolific and unlike any other. Growing up, Siddhartha never experienced true pain.He was sheltered, as many are, turning a blind eye when the hardships of daily life made itself visible to the peasantry around him. Awakening from a hazy reverie that has shielded Siddhartha from the inevitable, he vows to make a change. With the hope of finding a deeper and resounding life s purpose, Siddhartha, a young man living in the ancient Indian kingdom of Kapilavastu, embarks on a journey of self-discovery and actualization.Accompanied by his best friend Govinda, the pair abandon the comfort of their old life by trading their material possessions for what they hope will be eternal enlightenment. Ridding themselves completely of the comforts of their previous life, the duo vow to a life of attempted purity. In a world where suffering is inevitable, Siddhartha hopes that by experiencing the pain so many face, only then will he find the true meaning of life.Siddhartha, written by German author Hermann Hesse in 1951, is a tale of self-discovery and spiritual awakening. The novel as a whole explores the totality of the human experience, of what it means to abandon the parameters of comfort and routine in search for a higher calling.

Franz Beckenbauer – known as ‘the Kaiser’ – is Germany #39;s greatest-ever footballer and one of the game #39;s biggest icons of all time, a World Cup winner as player and manager. But what is often described as a blessed life has in fact been a rollercoaster ride with stunning highs and bitter lows. He rose to fame at the 1966 World Cup in England, where after West Germany’s final defeat the British press marvelled at the grace of a ‘beaten but proud Prussian officer’. Yet there was nothing Prussian about the Bavarian boy who flouted authority, disregarded rules and viewed the traditional German work ethic with the disdain of someone to whom everything comes naturally. After a glittering early career at Bayern Munich – captaining them to three European Cup victories and pioneering the playmaking libero role in central defence – Beckenbauer made a controversial move to the recently formed New York Cosmos in 1977. Praised as ‘the greatest’ by none other than Muhammad Ali, he gently warded off overtures from Rudolf Nureyev and partied the night away with Mick Jagger and Grace Jones at Studio 54. Back home, though, people often wondered what to make of this most famous German athlete who was so un-German. Beckenbauer’s country had finally learned to love him by the time he managed the national side to World Cup glory in 1990, but allegations of corruption surrounding Germany’s successful bid to host the 2006 World Cup have made him a controversial figure all over again. In The Three Lives of the Kaiser, leading football writer Uli Hesse gives us the definitive biography of this truly remarkable legend.

Winner of the US - Russia Relations Book Prize from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts UniversityVladimir Putin s first invasion of Ukraine, in 2014, set off a global economic clash, as the West used its clout with international markets to deter and penalise the Kremlin. The battlelines of this war by other means traversed a series of deep economic connections, built up during Russia s oil, gas and commodities boom: global equity and capital markets, and transnational kleptocracy. Maximilian Hess s startling book lifts the lid on Russia s response to Western sanctions, and the ensuing skirmishes in London s courts, on Swiss trading desks and in boardrooms in New Delhi. He explores how pipelines, mines, loans and crypto-markets were weaponised. This narrative sets the stage for Putin s all-out assault on Kyiv in February 2022, which turned financial, food and fuel markets into bona fide battlefields, bringing the fight into everyone s home, from Pennsylvania to Pakistan. Rather than a new Cold War , we are witnessing a conflict over finance, energy and capital markets. How such economic warfare turns out will determine the future of liberalism and democracy; it will also set a precedent for economic relations between the West and China, as the two diverge into rival spheres of influence and power.
