Encounters and Destinies : A Farewell to Europe EPUB
by Stefan (Author) Zweig
EPUB
Description
A new collection of essays by Stefan Zweig: tributes to the great artists and thinkers of the Europe of his dayStefan Zweig was a born eulogist.
In this collection of powerful elegies, homages and personal memories, Zweig forms a richly interconnected portrait of key creative figures in the European cultural diaspora up to 1939.
Many of those mourned or celebrated here cast a long spiritual shadow over Zweig's own writing life: Verhaeren, Rolland, Nietzsche, Roth, Mahler, Rilke and Freud. Zweig's farewells, souvenirs and declarations of gratitude demonstrate his ardent pan-Europeanism and rich friendships across borders.
Elegant and haunting, these tributes are a monument to his reverence for the arts and his belief in the sacredness of individualism.
