Description

First published in 1894, Knut Hamsun's "Pan" is former lieutenant Thomas Glahn's retrospective narrative of his life and adventures in the Norwegian woods. A man of fascinating complexity, Glahn is in some respects a modern successor to a long line of "superfluous" men in Western literature, an heir to Goethe's Werther and the protagonists of Turgenev and Dostoyevsky. This portrait of a man rejecting the claims of bourgeois society for a Rousseauian embrace of Nature and Eros explores the veiled mysteries of the unconscious by means of thoroughly modern techniques. "Pan" features quasi-musical modulations of pace and rhythm, haunting use of leitmotifs that contract and distend time, startling versions of myth and legend, and ecstatic evocations of nature in its various phases and moods, all attesting to the novel's Modernist innovations.
