A eterna busca da verdade em Die Lehrlinge zu Saïs, de Novalis

Abstract

Abstract:The purpose of this essay is to undergo an investigation geared towards identifying the consolidation of the symbolized Upper or Ideal Truth illustrated by the figure of the goddess Saïs in the fragmentary novel Die Lehrlinge zu Saïs, from Novalis, written in 1801. As part of our approach, we traced a parallel between the allegorical use of Saïs myth by Novalis and in Schiller´s poem Das verschleierte Bild zu Saïs, aiming at a better characterization of Novalis" concept of the Ideal Truth. Lastly, we analyzed the fairy tale Hyazinth und Rosenblüte, which is part of the novel Die Lehrlinge zu Saïs, where it is possible to envisage the finding of the Ideal Truth searched by the poets of German Early Romanticism, especially by Novalis.
