Summary
Hermann Hesse: Narcissus and Chrysostom + Short stories: The King, Cyclone, The Marble Turner, Walter Kempf, In the former inn "Kod sunca"
*excerpt from the library
Narcissus and Chrysostom is a study of the different life paths and different world views of Narcissus, a monk and scholar, turned exclusively to the spiritual, and Chrysostom, an artist, who with his creativity wants perpetuate the worldly and glorify God through the visible. Different approaches to the world and life, and even to God, do not prevent their exceptional friendship, set in the medieval framework. Hesse proves that diversity does not have to separate, but can provide new stimuli and grow and enrich those who are able to understand that their understanding is not the only possible and acceptable one. The novel is an elaboration of one of the central preoccupations of Hesse's creativity, the motif of the contradiction between spiritual, thought existence and the sensual way of living, logos and eros, proving that exactly contradictions lead to new insights and new qualities.
