Hermann Hesse

“Your soul is the whole world.” Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha Siddhartha is a 1922 novel by Hermann Hesse that deals with the spiritual journey of self-discovery of a man named Siddhartha during the time of the Gautama Buddha. The book, Hesse's ninth novel, was written in German, in a simple, lyrical style. It was published in the U.S. in 1951 and became influential during the 1960s. Hesse dedicated Siddhartha to his wife Ninon ("Meiner Frau Ninon gewidmet ") and supposedly afterwards to Romain Rolland and Wilhelm Gundert. The word Siddhartha is made up of two words in the Sanskrit language, siddha (achieved) + artha (what was searched for), which together means "he who has found meaning (of existence)" or "he who has attained his goals". In fact, the Buddha's own name, before his renunciation, was Siddhartha Gautama, Prince of Kapilvastu, Nepal. In this book, the Buddha is referred to as "Gotama".

Siddhartha

Anke Dreher

Siddhartha Hermann HESSE (1877 - 1962), Siddhartha is one of the great philosophical novels. Profoundly insightful, it is also a beautifully written story that begins as Siddhartha, son of an Indian Brahman, leaves his family and begins a lifelong journey towards Enlightenment. On the way he faces the entire range of human experience and emotion: he lives with ascetics, meets Gotama the Buddha, learns the art of love from Kamala the courtesan, and is transformed by the simple philosophy of the ferryman Vasudeva whose wisdom comes not from learned teachings but from observing the River. Herman Hesse (1877-1962) was a German-Swiss novelist, poet, and painter. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946.

Der Band wirft Schlaglichter auf die aktuelle Diskussion, wie semantische Information in natürlichsprachlichen Lexika und in der maschinellen Sprachverarbeitung erfasst und repräsentiert werden kann. Dabei werden grundlegende Fragen wie die Repräsentation von Semantik im Grundwortschatz, die Behandlung von Derivationsinformation und von idiomatischen Ausdrücken sowie Phänomene semantischer Übertragung im Sprachkontakt behandelt. Ein großer Teil der Artikel behandelt das Forschungsgebiet aus computerlinguistischer Perspektive.
