Demian is a psychological masterpiece of modern literature that explores the duality of human nature and the alienation of the human soul. A powerful story of self-discovery that inspires thousands of readers worldwide. Emil Sinclair is a young man tormented by the lack of answers to his questions about the world. Upon meeting Max Demian, a precocious and charismatic classmate, Sinclair rebels against the conventions of his time and embarks on a journey of discovery. Originally published in 1919, this classic, considered a watershed moment in the career of Hermann Hesse, reflects the German writer's questions about humanity, with its contradictions and dualities. Influenced by the ideas of Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology, Hesse describes the individual's search for inner fulfillment and self-knowledge. Besides being a turning point in Hermann's career, Demian is also a work that, \"with frightening precision, struck a chord with the times, drawing an entire youth into a grateful enchantment\"—as defined in a 1947 essay by none other than Thomas Mann, the greatest monument of 20th-century German literature and winner of the 1929 Nobel Prize. Thus, this \"novel of education\" (Erziehungsroman), of \"formation\" (Bildungsroman), is constructed along a path that leads the narrator to his own self-discovery. It is not simple. “Nothing is more repugnant to man than to follow the path that leads to himself!”, the protagonist emphasizes. After Demian, Hermann’s style asserts itself in books such as Siddhartha (1922), Steppenwolf (1927) and The Glass Bead Game (1943).","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159216406780,"sku":"9788501020291","price":64.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/4161ff4cd8b04a3136af82d3184c9e98_b0142902-4f9a-4d1e-90f8-1f6a5922d063.jpg?v=1778874722"},{"product_id":"demian-1","title":"Demian (Edição especial)","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWith an unpublished preface by Thomas Mann, who describes it as “a poetic work that struck with sinister precision the nerve of the time and swept an entire youth into the most grateful delight,” \u003cem\u003eDemian\u003c\/em\u003e is now in a special edition.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWritten by Nobel Prize winner in Literature Hermann Hesse, this book is a psychological masterpiece of modern literature that explores the duality of human nature and the alienation of the human soul.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e In \u003cem\u003eDemian\u003c\/em\u003e , a brilliant psychological portrait, a young man begins to recognize his individuality and perceives a world of possibilities beyond the conventions society has imposed on him.

Its title, Das Glasperlenspiel, literally \"The Game of Glass Pearls,\" refers to a playful, yet purely intellectual, activity whose roots can be traced originally to the thought of Pythagoras, reborn in the gnosis and hermetic humanism of the Renaissance, with echoes in Descartes and Leibniz. The name of the game originated from the fact that Bastian Perrot, a music theorist, used glass beads or pearls instead of graphic symbols in the notation of melodies. This novel describes a mythical community in which intellectuals dedicated to music, astronomy, and mathematics delight in the practice of a complex and exquisite playful activity, the ultimate avatar of a culture. The players sought to create a secret, universal language that would express, like a symbolic algebra, the quintessence of knowledge, similar to the dreams of ancient sages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe action takes place in 2200, in the utopian community of scholars gathered in Castalia.

Through him, Servo, acting as magister ludi (master of the game), discovers the value of history, questions his universe, and rebels. Combining the wisdom of the West and the East, Hesse leads us in The Game of Glass Beads to a surprising conclusion in a work built on lessons from many masters.\u003c\/p\u003e \"","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159831527676,"sku":"9788501119872","price":99.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/1d00dc4ce1c0387a04b2ab2b23b94401.jpg?v=1778324078"},{"product_id":"box-hermann-hesse","title":"Box Hermann Hesse","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThree indispensable books from the work of Hermann Hesse, one of the most important authors of the 20th century.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eThis deluxe collection—featuring a new format, hardcover, and three-sided painting—also includes a booklet written by writer and translator Marcelo Backes.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Nobel Prize winner in Literature in 1946 and an icon of German literature, Hermann Hesse is undoubtedly one of the world's most renowned writers.

Influenced by the ideas of Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology, Hesse describes the individual's search for inner fulfillment and self-knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e \"","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176278606076,"sku":"9788577994137","price":39.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/8cd2423b376adcdc911d3d0cba06568c.jpg?v=1778314228"},{"product_id":"o-jogo-das-contas-de-vidro-edicao-de-bolso","title":"The Glass Bead Game (Paperback)","description":"\"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNovel by the great writer Hemann Hesse in pocket format.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"A novel that achieves a rare feat: being both universal and timeless.\" \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times Books review.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eWhat could this \u003cem\u003e\"The Glass Bead Game\"\u003c\/em\u003e be, the basis of Hermann Hesse's last novel, published in 1943? Its title, \u003cem\u003eDas Glasperlenspiel\u003c\/em\u003e , literally \"The Glass Bead Game,\" refers to a playful, yet purely intellectual, activity whose roots can originally be traced to the thought of Pythagoras, reborn in the gnosis and hermetic humanism of the Renaissance, with echoes in Descartes and Leibniz. The name of the game originated from the fact that Bastian Perrot, a music theorist, used glass beads or pearls instead of graphic symbols in the notation of melodies. This novel describes a mythical community in which intellectuals dedicated to music, astronomy, and mathematics delight in the practice of a complex and exquisite playful activity, the ultimate avatar of a culture. The players sought to create a secret, universal language that would express, like a symbolic algebra, the quintessence of knowledge, in the manner of the dreams of ancient sages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe action takes place in 2200, in the utopian community of scholars gathered in Castalia. According to scholars of Hesse's work, in \u003cem\u003eThe Glass Bead Game\u003c\/em\u003e , the hero Joseph Servo and his fictional autobiography represent the life the author would have envisioned. He is tasked with teaching the Benedictine monks the glass bead game, as the secular order he represents must establish relations with the religious order led by Father Jacobus, a historian. Through him, Servo, acting as \u003cem\u003emagister ludi\u003c\/em\u003e (master of the game), discovers the value of history, questions his universe, and rebels. Combining the wisdom of the West and the East, Hesse leads us to a surprising conclusion in a work built on lessons from many masters.\u003c\/p\u003e \"","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176878686460,"sku":"9788577990030","price":49.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/d1664ee417730383cf3ad69640d9b4c3.jpg?v=1776892386"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/hermann-hesse.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
