Siddhartha is a compelling and deeply philosophical novel written by Hermann Hesse, first published in 1922. This literary masterpiece explores the spiritual journey and existential quest of its titular protagonist, Siddhartha, in ancient India. Set against a backdrop of lush, mystical landscapes and steeped in Eastern spirituality, the novel offers a profound exploration of the human search for meaning and self-discovery.Siddhartha, the central character, begins his life as a young Brahmin, blessed with privilege and a promising future. However, he feels a profound sense of emptiness and restlessness within him, which drives him to leave his comfortable life behind in search of a deeper truth. His journey takes him through various stages of existence, from the asceticism of the Samanas to the materialistic world of business and wealth, and finally to the banks of the sacred river where he encounters the enlightened Buddha himself.Throughout his odyssey, Siddhartha grapples with profound questions about the nature of self, desire, suffering, and the ultimate purpose of human existence. He encounters a cast of diverse characters, each representing different facets of human experience and philosophy, from Kamala, the courtesan, to Vasudeva, the wise ferryman.Hesse's prose is lyrical and introspective, weaving a narrative that is both timeless and universal. Siddhartha's quest mirrors the universal human struggle to reconcile the demands of the material world with the longing for spiritual enlightenment. As the novel unfolds, readers are invited to contemplate the eternal themes of self-discovery, transcendence, and the interconnectedness of all living beings.Siddhartha is not merely a story; it is a profound meditation on the human condition and a spiritual guide that encourages readers to embark on their own journeys of self-discovery. This literary classic continues to captivate and inspire readers around the world, offering profound insights into the pursuit of wisdom, enlightenment, and the elusive path to inner peace.

Unterm Rad ist eine Erzählung von Hermann Hesse, die 1906 erschien. Ursprünglich wurde sie von Hermann Hesse als Roman bezeichnet. In Unterm Rad wird das Schicksal eines begabten Jugendlichen erzählt, der an einer ihn einseitig fordernden Pädagogik, aber auch an sich selbst scheitert. In einer Kleinstadt im Schwarzwald lebt Joseph Giebenrath, Zwischenhändler und verwitweter Vater des Protagonisten Hans Giebenrath. Hans wird vom Rektor seiner Schule und von seinem Vater von Gleichaltrigen ferngehalten, um einen in ihren Augen "schlechten", kindlichen Einfluss auf den Jungen abzuwehren. Er bekommt Extraunterricht, um sich für das Landexamen in Stuttgart vorzubereiten, zu dem er als Einziger aus seiner Stadt antritt. Die Naturverbundenheit des Knaben wird immer wieder betont. Allerdings zerschlägt Hans am Abend vor der Abreise zum Landexamen einen Kaninchenstall, den er früher stets schätzte. Er besteht landesweit als Zweiter das Landexamen. Dies erlaubt ihm, das Seminar in der Klosterschule in Maulbronn zu besuchen, in dem Landesbeamte und Pastoren ausgebildet werden. Zur Belohnung für seinen Aufstieg in die Bildungselite wird ihm von seinem Vater das Angeln wieder erlaubt. Direktor und Stadtpfarrer drängen Hans zum Lernen in den Ferien, um der gesteigerten Konkurrenz im Seminar gewachsen zu sein. So erhält er täglich einige Stunden Unterricht. Lediglich Schustermeister Flaig, ein einfacher Mann, Menschenfreund, Pietist, der dem Stadtpfarrer ablehnend gegenübersteht, rät ihm zu mehr "Luft und Bewegung".

"If what this subtle clever old bard was singing in his muted voice was true, then all my songs were only nonsense and silly child's play." When Hesse turned thirteen he wanted to be a poet. In the words of John Keating, the character played by Robin Williams in the Dead Poets Society, a poet sucks the marrow out of life without choking on the bone. A bard, on the other hand, is a professional poet employed to compose eulogies for his lord. In Scotland in the 16th century it was a derogatory term for a traveling musician. "Flute Dream" is a short fairy tale written by Hermann Hesse in March 1914, when he was about to turn thirty seven. The story, which was titled "Flötentraum" in German, deals with the subconscious dream world and is based on two of Carl Jung's shadow archetypes, the "Impotent Lover" and the "Weakling King". In Jungian psychology, the poet is one of the main manifestations of the "Lover" archetype. The "Lover" archetype is usually the first that develops in a man. It is the archetype of emotion, feeling, idealism, sensuality and of opening to the world. The Lover feels vigorously alive and is totally connected to those around him and to the world at large. He enjoys good food and drink, beautiful art, gorgeous women and uses all his senses, touching, tasting, smelling, hearing, and seeing, to enjoy life's pleasures. The Greek god Dionysus, the god of wine, art, passion, and sex is perhaps the best example. The "Impotent Lover" shadow arises when a man is out of touch with the Lover archetype in its fullness or feels shame when he indulges himself in life's pleasures. While the Lover in his fullness sees the world in vivid colors and textures, the Impotent Lover only sees gray. A man dogged by the impotent lover archetype feels depressed, flat, and dead inside. Nothing brings him joy, he has no passion for life. The "King" archetype is totally centered and functions as an intermediary between man and god, or heaven and earth. He serves as both the geographic and the spiritual center of his realm. All existence radiates from the King archetype. When a man lives the King archetype in its fullness, he feels confidence, purpose and a sense of well-being that gives him a supreme sense of balance and a centering power within himself. He's the rock in crisis and acts rather than reacts. Even when the world around him becomes chaotic, he remains cool, calm, and collected. A man fully engaged with positive King energy is completely present as a man. The "Weakling King" shadow is passive. Instead of taking control of his life and making decisions in a resolute fashion, a man possessed by the Weakling shadow abdicates his throne to others. This edition also contains "The Poet", which depicts a variation on the true "Lover" archetype where the love of poetry was the main lover's desire and the poet manages to suck the marrow out of life without chocking on the bone.

El lobo estepario es una de las lectura más impactantes y que más suelen recordar quienes la emprenden. Por un lado, la historia que narra es un alucinante viaje a los temores, angustias y miedos a los que se ve abocado el hombre contemporáneo. Pero por otro, la pericia narrativa de Hesse llega en esta novela a su punto culminante, pues mediante la combinación de voces narrativas y de puntos de vista nos ofrece diversas dimensiones de un personaje que intenta vivir al margen de las convenciones sociales. Es sin duda la obra a que más estrechamente ha quedado asociado el nombre de Hesse. Un libro de Hesse es siempre un acontecimiento, y la reciente aparición de sus Relatos esenciales, también publicado en Edhasa, fue objeto de una calurosa recepción por parte de la crítica. Quizá entre lo más singular de esta novela esté que se trata de una obra muy leída por los adolescentes, que descubre un modo duro de enfrentarse a la sociedad, a las relaciones sentimentales y a la muerte. Está considerada como la obra cumbre de un gran autor.

Die drei Geschichten aus dem Leben des Landstreichers Knulp, einem Nachfahren von Eichendorffs "Taugenichts", zählen zu den reizvollsten Stücken der frühen Prosa Hermann Hesses. In der Folge seiner Werke gehören sie zum großen Zyklus seiner "Gerbersau"-Erzählungen, der uns das Leben in einer schwäbischen Kleinstadt um die Jahrhundertwende am Beispiel zahlreicher charakteristischer und größtenteils authentischer Einzelschicksale überliefert.

"The most ruthless of Hesse's many self-exposures." Joseph Mileck Klein and Wagner tells the story of Friedrich Klein, a middle-aged clerk who has embezzled from his employer and escaped to Italy. However, Klein is not a common criminal, but rather a self-alienated, tormented bourgeois in search of peace and self-fulfillment. While pondering his fate, Klein recognizes that his primary motivation was a compulsion and urge to murder his wife and children, which he could only avoid by entirely abandoning his old life. This dark drive is associated with the name Wagner, which alludes to the famous composer and also to an actual German schoolteacher who in September 1913 had killed his wife and children. In spite of his flight, Klein fails to transcend his pain: instead of feeling liberated, he regards himself as a victim of his own thoughts, his brain a kaleidoscope in which the shifting images were directed by somebody else's hand. Throughout the story, Klein repeatedly ponders suicide. In this desperate situation he meets Teresina, a young blonde courtesan who mingles with the local art crowd. He is increasingly drawn to her, although his stance remains ambivalent. To Klein, something about Teresina symbolized vitality as well as a connection to the eternal feminine. But when Teresina asks him about his background, he refuses to give a straight answer. Among the most obvious features of Klein and Wagner are the striking autobiographical parallels. By 1919, Hesse's first wife Mia had been diagnosed as mentally ill. The author was still uncertain whether to seek a divorce. In addition, he feared the responsibility for raising their three sons, Bruno, Heiner, and Martin. In the Spring of 1919, Hesse finally succumbed to his urge to escape, left Bern for Ticino and settled down in the mountain village of Montagnola, where he wrote this story. Whereas the character Klein remains trapped in his identification with Wagner, writing down his story proved instrumental for Hesse in overcoming his deep personal crisis. To Hesse, writing Klein and Wagner fulfilled a clear therapeutic purpose: "Klein is a part of Hesse and will always be; without him, without the transference of my suffering into this mirror, I would not have been able to bear this suffering. It was my salvation that I escaped into solitude and lived completely, day and night, in my writing." Strongly influenced by Expressionism, Klein and Wagner is a modern "psychodrama" that introduces key themes and motifs that dominates Hesse's writing during the following decade, including some striking connections to Steppenwolf.

Quality paperback edition of Hermann Hesse's classic novel of pilgrimage and spiritual awakening, Siddhartha. *** Also available: Digital edition for kindle (ASIN B00378L6VY)

Uno de los primeros libros de Hermann Hesse, tan sólo dos años después de su ópera prima Peter Camenzind, y trece años antes de su obra más conocida (y quizás genial) Demian. Bajo la rueda es una obra sencilla y fácil de leer en el que se narra la vida de Hans Giebenrath, un inteligente y vivo muchacho, y de cómo las circunstancias, el egoísmo de otros que quieren vivir a través de él la vida que nunca pudieron alcanzar (por falta de capacidad), la mano de hierro de su padre y educadores, la falta de libertad para poder construirse a sí mismo y tomar las riendas de su vida de la que sólo él debiera ser amo y señor, llevan a la destrucción total de su magnífica y superior personalidad. En definitiva una crítica voraz contra la falta de libertad ahogadora de personalidades geniales en potencia por culpa de una envidia que lleva a cortar de raíz las flores más bellas, y un manifiesto en pro de la inteligencia y la vida en sí misma, como proyecto personal y único de cada ser individual.

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.
