petr camenzind hermann hesse

Román Petr Camenzind, vydaný poprvé roku 1904, založil Hesseho literární věhlas. Zachycuje vývoj mladého umělce, jenž po delším putování a sbírání zkušeností názorových i citových dospívá ke skeptickému postoji v otázce existence umělce v současné společnosti. Hesseho text navazuje na tradici německého vývojového románu a dodnes neztratil nic na svém půvabu a barvitosti.

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.

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.

''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.

First he spends time with a group of ascetics called Samanas. For a while he embraces their doctrine and rejects all worldly goods. When he hears about a man called Gotama the Buddha he leaves the Samanas. However Buddhist teaching disappoints him and he realizes that self-discovery must come from his own experiences. He rejects the spiritual life, takes a lover and becomes a rich merchant. But after some years, dissatisfied with materialism, he takes off again in search of the spiritual peace he longs for.

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.

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.

Autobiograficky laděná povídka Pouť do Země východní bývá mnoha literárními historiky považována za prolog Hry se skleněnými perlami. Hesse ji začal psát v roce 1930, v době, kdy velké naděje na lepší duchovní uspořádání společnosti po první světové válce pomalu braly za své. Povídka reflektovala autorův pocit osamění a zmaru i rozchod s přítelem a duchovním učitelem Gustavem Gräserem považovaným za "Gándhího Západu". Ústředním motivem je hledání ideálu, potřeba mravní zralosti a podřízení života jednotlivce nadosobnímu celku. Vypravěč, bývalý hudebník H. H., prožívá osobní krizi. V prázdnotě života beze smyslu vzpomíná na dobu, kdy se jako člen tajného Bratrstva vydal na Východ, vstříc světlu a zázraku. Jejich společná pouť byla cestou prostorem i časem, na hraně snu a skutečnosti. Působivý, poetický styl, umné proplétání motivů a postav reálných i literárních činí z povídky mimořádný klenot.

Herman Hesse remained clear-sighted and consistent in his political views and his passionate espousal of pacifism and the bloody absurdity of war from the start of the First World War to the end of his life. He wrote the earliest essay in this book in September 1914, before he cemented his fame with the novels Steppenwolf and Siddhartha, and continued writing a stream of letters, essays and pamphlets throughout the war. In his native Germany his views earned him the labels ''traitor'' and ''viper'', but after World War II he was moved to reiterate his beliefs in another series of essays and letters.If the War Goes On . . . resonates as strongly today as it did when originally published and begs the question: have our politicians learnt nothing in the last seventy years?

An insight into the life and mind of an icon of American art through the diaries of sculptor Eva Hesse. ‘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.’ These lines open Eva Hesse’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 Hesse’s diaries, recorded from 1955 to 1970, readers are given an intimate glimpse into the mind of one of contemporary sculpture’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, Hesse’s sculptures defy traditional notions of form; her deeply thoughtful practice as a sculptor and a painter are revealed at length in her writing.

They were the most unlikely of siblings – one, Adolf Hitler’s most trusted henchman, the other a fervent anti-Nazi.Hermann Goering was a founder member of the Nazi Party, who became commander of the Luftwaffe, ordering the terror bombing of civilians and promoting the use of slave labour in his factories.His brother, Albert, loathed Hitler’s regime and saved hundreds – possibly thousands – across Europe from Nazi persecution. He deferred to Hermann as head of the family but spent nearly a decade working against his brother’s regime. If he had been anyone else, he would have been imprisoned or executed. Despite their extreme and differing beliefs, Hermann sheltered his brother from prosecution and they remained close throughout the war.Here, for the first time, James Wyllie brings Albert out of the shadows and explores the extraordinary relationship of the Goering brothers.

Hermann Göring je spojován především se skutky a zločiny, které spáchal v letech 1933-1945 jako jeden z nejvyšších představitelů třetí říše, avšak jeho činnost za první světové války byla přehlížena. Americký historik Peter Kilduff vytvořil zásadní dílo založené na intenzivním výzkumu Göringových raných vojenských záznamů, včetně jeho vlastních bojových hlášení, souvisejících písemností a tisíců německých a dohodových dokumentů. Jeho kniha je proto důkladnou studií, která Göringa přibližuje jako vojenského letce a velitele během první světové války a uvádí zkušenosti formující osobnost muže, jenž si získal světovou pozornost v následující válce. Na začátku války se Göring horlivě snažil prokázat svoji hodnotu vlasti v úvodních střetnutích s francouzskými vojáky. Když byl v září 1914 postižen vážnou revmatoidní artritidou, hořel 21letý důstojník ambicemi, a nedokázal si připustit, že by byl odstaven na vedlejší kolej. Další měsíc zahájil svoji novou kariéru jako letecký pozorovatel. Následně se stal stíhacím pilotem, který si na své konto připsal 22 uznaných vítězství nad nepřátelskými letadly, a byl posledním válečným velitelem stíhací eskadry Rudého barona, Jagdgeschwader Freiherr von Richthofen Nr. I, a nositelem prestižních vyznamenání, včetně nejvyššího pruského/německého řádu za statečnost, Pour le Mérite. Knihu doplňuje 75 kreseb a fotografi í, včetně těch ze soukromé Göringovy sbírky, které nebyly ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Zvláště když žijete na americkém Jihu a máte jinou barvu pleti než bílou. Jenže když vám zabijí dceru, nemáte jinou možnost. I když víte, že stojíte proti všem a že vaše cesta nemá šťastný konec. Zabili Divokýho Billa – v Deadwoodu roku 1876 nezemřel jen Divoký Bill Hickok. Kousek za městem byla vyvražděna rodina a mladý Melvin toho byl svědkem. Nezbývá mu než se dát na útěk, na dlouhou cestu… nejdřív za přežitím, potom za pomstou. Hermann představuje nejen svou osobitou kresbu a vypravěčský talent, ale i krásný a krutý svět, který z lidí vymačkává to nejlepší… ale i to nejhorší. Silné obrazy i silná dramata – ...
