There's the 'sense' of 'modernization' that MAY befoul his Work -- >that< MAY occur but I'm NOT-gonna "buy into" it. I can't . We must always "keep in Mind" that Hesse underwent Jungian Analysis, and his Work either reflects or echos Jungian Concepts . Here it is where Jung's "Process of Individuation" is CLEARLY Expressed by Hesse . His Search for HIS Soul is OUR Search for OUR Soul . After Magister Ludi he was awarded the Noble Prize in Literature . It was RICHLY Deserved .
We need not "follow in his footsteps" so much as 'follow' his 'Drive' --[where Drive is] the Inner Will that manifests as a tireless outpouring of HIS Characteristics, {attributes, shortcomings and Resolve} found within the Characters he 'supplied' in his novels . Indeed, his Life IS his novels . How GREAT {SUPER-TERRIFIC} is THAT ?
Here we find this : "Seeing into one's self, and the attainment of Buddha-hood".
