The fight with the demon: Hölderlin - Kleist - Nietzsche

Boekbeoordeling

Meer over het boek

The great writer and biographer's Stefan Zweig's work, The Fight with the Daemon, is a superb study of the European psyche. Friedrich Holderlin, Heinrich von Kleist, and Friedrich Nietzsche are three giants of German literature and thinking.They were powerful minds whose thoughts clashed with the logical positivism of their time; troubled souls whose intoxicating emotions made them insane but inspired them to great works.Stefan Zweig represents the tension at the core of the European soul - between science and art, cause and imagination - in their battle with their inner artistic power.This is the most interesting of his esteemed biographical studies, as it is both intensely intimate and philosophically wide-ranging.
