Abstract

This article reflects on the contacts and dialogues between literature and scientific thought in the works of Austrian writer Hermann Broch in the first half of the 20th century. His first novel, The Sleepwalkers [Die Schlafwandler] (1931-1932), points to certain interpretations, allusions and similarities in connection with thinkers such as Max Weber, Walter Benjamin and Hannah Arendt, which suggest the incorporation of literature to scientific and philosophical knowledge. Conversely, in his last fiction work, The Death of Virgil [Der Tod des Vergil] (1945), Broch seems to question and even to doubt the importance of literature as a way of reflecting on contemporary life. While prioritizing Broch’s early works, this article follows his trajectory as he incorporates philosophical, scientific, and religious considerations to fiction, while reflecting on the time in which he lived.
从艺术学到诗歌之死
本文对20世纪上半叶奥地利作家赫尔曼·布洛克作品中文学与科学思想的接触与对话进行了反思。他的第一部小说《梦游者》(1931-1932)指出了与马克斯·韦伯、沃尔特·本雅明和汉娜·阿伦特等思想家有关的某些解释、典故和相似之处,这些都表明文学与科学和哲学知识相结合。相反,在他的最后一部小说《维吉尔之死》(1945年)中,布罗克似乎质疑甚至怀疑文学作为反思当代生活的一种方式的重要性。在优先考虑布罗克早期作品的同时,本文遵循了他的轨迹,他将哲学、科学和宗教考虑融入小说,同时反思了他所生活的时代。
