Knulp
"I cannot read Hermann Hesse without feeling that I am drawn into the presence of a deeply serious mind, a mind that is searching for the meaning of life." - Carl Jung
A new 2023 translation of the original German manuscript of Hermann Hesse's Nobel Prize-winning novel "Knulp". This edition also contains an epilogue by the translator, a philosophical glossary of concepts used by Hesse and a chronology of his life and work. Hesse won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1947. "Knulp: Three Stories from the Life of Knulp" (in German "Knulp: Drei Geschichten aus dem Leben des Knulp") is a third-person narrative following an eponymous protagonist, a wanderer who embodies freedom but also intense loneliness. These three stories about a vagabond, which Hesse wrote between 1907 and 1914, highlight the humanity and profundity of Knulp's life, in mimicry of Dickens and Hugo. There is a pervading little homesickness for freedom in these stories.
