Journey to the East

G

99K0

"Voyage to the East" written by Hermann Hesse tells the story that Hermann Hesse had a temple of Eastern culture in his heart. It not only displays his unique insights into oriental literature, painting, and religion, mainly represented by China and India, but also engraved with the oriental scenes he painted with satirical stories, fairy tales, and fables. But whether he is trying to clarify the intricate relationship between Buddhism, Brahmanism and Hinduism, or telling the story of a king with an "Indian life trajectory" in a very folklore-like way, he without exception expresses the theme that runs through his life of creation: individuals strive to achieve the harmonious unity of divided selves in the process of actively seeking their true self.

"The Scent of Time: The Art of Dwelling" Today's time crisis is not an acceleration. The days of acceleration are long gone. What we currently think of as acceleration is just one of the symptoms of time being lost. This book looks back to history to draw attention to the need for a different way of understanding everyday life in order to avoid falling into a temporal crisis. What the author remembers is not "the time of telling." The end of telling, or the end of a story, does not necessarily mean a gap in time. It has the potential to open up a life time that is free from theology and teleology and exudes its own unique fragrance. Its premise is to revive the "contemplative life." "The Crisis of Narrative" Today is an era when everyone is talking about narrative. Paradoxically, the proliferation of narrative topics actually exposes a narrative crisis. Amid the din of "storytelling," there is a narrative vacuum that is meaningless and directionless. Capitalism takes ownership of narrative through storytelling. It subordinates telling to consumption.
