Будда — моё прибежище

Rate this book
Имя Густава Майринка, одного из ярчайших представителей «черного романтизма», широко известно читателям. Оккультные знания, кристаллизованные в художественном слове в романах «Голем», «Вальпургиева ночь», «Ангел Западного окна», заставляют трепетать души и выводят сознание за границы обыденной реальности. Мистические тайны мира и человеческой души, занимавшие главенствующее место в произведениях Майринка, нашли отражение и в рассказах, включенных в сборник «Будда — мое прибежище».

Meyrinck founded his own bank but was accused of fraud for which he spent 2 months in prison.

He worked as a translator and translated in German 15 volumes by Charles Dickens while working on his own novels.

Among his most famous works are Der Golem (1914) and Walpurgisnacht (1917).

Мрачный настрой и стремление преодолеть конечное, раскрывшись бесконечному и истинному. Антология рассказов из разных сборников Густава Майринка. Особенно впечатлило название рассказа «Всё бытие есть пламенное страдание».
