Description
Gradiva: A Pompeiian Fancy is a novel written by Wilhelm Jensen and first published in 1918. The story revolves around a young archaeologist named Norbert Hanold, who becomes obsessed with a relief sculpture of a woman he sees in a museum in Rome. The sculpture is named Gradiva, which means ""the woman who walks"" in Latin. Hanold believes that Gradiva is a real person and becomes determined to find her.Hanold travels to Pompeii, where he believes Gradiva lived, and begins to have vivid hallucinations of her. Gradiva appears to him in his dreams and leads him on a journey through the ancient city, where he discovers the truth about her identity and the tragic events that led to her death.The novel is a psychological exploration of Hanold's obsession with Gradiva and his descent into madness. It also explores themes of love, desire, and the power of the imagination. The novel has been praised for its vivid descriptions of Pompeii and its exploration of the human psyche. It has been adapted into several films and has influenced numerous artists and writers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
