AWAKENING AS NARATED IN HERMANN HESSE’S NOVELS
Abstract
Literature, issuing from a sense of wonderment about life and the world, involves a keen interest in major questions about human experiences and their patterns in the world. Therefore, a philosophical analysis of literature develops a reflective concern for life and makes suggestions for life-problems. It requires a careful and systematic reading of work of arts and a critical, logical examination of the arguments they put forth. It offers a chance to create and adopt seminal beliefs about human development, life and the world. Hermann Hesse, ‘a writer of man’s interior’ (Freedman, 1920, p.11) presents his heroes undertake self exploration within themselves and into the world they live. Their lifecourse charts a particular pattern of human development.
