Transcript Measuring the World online

Measuring the World by Daniel Kehlmann
Daniel Kehlmann
The younger Austrian author Daniel Kehlmann conjures an excellent and lightly comedian novel
from the lives of 2 geniuses of the Enlightenment. towards the tip of the eighteenth century,
younger Germans got down to degree the world. one in all them, the Prussian aristocrat
Alexander von Humboldt, negotiates savanna and jungle, travels down the Orinoco, tastes
poisons, climbs the top mountain identified to man, counts head lice, and explores each gap
within the ground. The other, the hardly socialized mathematician and astronomer Carl Friedrich
Gauss, doesn't even have to go away his domestic in Göttingen to end up that area is curved.
He can run major numbers in his head. He can't think a lifestyles with out women, but he jumps
up and about on his marriage ceremony evening to put in writing a mathematical formula. Von
Humboldt is understood to heritage because the moment Columbus. Gauss is famous because
the maximum mathematical mind in view that Newton. Terrifyingly well-known and greater than
eccentric of their outdated age, the 2 meet in Berlin in 1828. Gauss has rarely climbed out of his
Measuring the World carriage prior to either males are Measuring the World embroiled within
the political turmoil sweeping via Germany after Measuring the World Napoleon’s fall.Already
an incredible top vendor in Germany, Measuring the area marks the debut of a wonderful new
expertise at the foreign scene.
Gauss, il principe dei matematici, e von Humboldt, il principe degli esploratori. Due ingegni
straordinari, due personaggi eccentrici, due spiriti liberi, ideali protagonisti di un romanzo che si
propone di mescolare in modo equilibrato verità e finzione letteraria, in step with narrare una
bella storia e a ways riflettere il lettore su alcuni temi importanti.Dico subito che il risultato è
nettamente al di sotto delle aspettative. Il primo dei (molti) difetti del romanzo di Kehlmann è
l’inconsistenza della trama, costruita completamente a casaccio e fatta di episodi biografici più
o meno lunghi, giustapposti senza alcun nesso logico. (view spoiler)[Nel primo capitolo troviamo
Gauss che fra mille intoppi si reca in carrozza alla conferenza scientifica che avrà luogo a
Berlino nel 1828. Segue un lungo flashback che coinvolge il matematico e l’esploratore, dei
quali, a capitoli alternati, vengono narrate infanzia e giovinezza con lunghe e arbitrarie ellissi
temporali, fino alla maturità. Passati i due terzi del libro, ecco che ritorniamo improvvisamente e
del tutto inaspettatamente a Berlino, dove si svolge l. a. conferenza (in realtà una serie di noiosi
ricevimenti) e dove i due finalmente si incontrano in step with vivere pochi drammatici eventi.
Negli ultimi capitoli le loro vicende sembrano intrecciarsi, ma in realtà ciascuno prosegue
consistent with los angeles sua strada, e il dialogo epistolare fra i due si trasforma in un doppio
monologo interiore. Nelle ultime pagine prevale un tono meditativo e si comincia a comprendere
il senso del libro e il messaggio del suo autore (occhio alla destinazione di Eugen Gauss,
spiega molte cose). (hide spoiler)]Sembra che lo scopo principale del romanzo sia mettere in
scena un ritratto vivace, irriverente e accattivante dell’Illuminismo tedesco tra l. a. Rivoluzione
francese e l’affermarsi del Romanticismo. Kehlmann vuole narrare, in una sorta di racconto
filosofico, il tentativo, immane e disperato, di misurare il mondo con gli strumenti scientifici e con
los angeles razionalità illuministica in un momento storico in cui i Lumi entrano in crisi e si fanno
strada nuovi paradigmi di percezione del mondo. Il desiderio di conoscere, los angeles
matematizzazione della realtà fisica, l. a. mappatura della superficie terrestre o della volta
celeste, los angeles ricerca e los angeles scoperta della soluzione di antichi enigmi sono i
possenti motori dell’agire dei due protagonisti, che si scontrano in modo violento e doloroso
contro l’impossibilità materiale di dare tutte le risposte e soprattutto con l’incapacità mostrata
dal resto dell’umanità di accettarle e farne tesoro. Il fallimento dell’impresa scientifica di Gauss
e von Humboldt si intreccia con il fallimento delle loro esistenze, messe continuamente di fronte
all’ottusità e alla volgarità dei contemporanei: Gauss non riesce a trovare geni matematici del
suo calibro, con cui possa sentirsi finalmente alla pari, e deve Measuring the World vedersela
con parenti ignoranti e aridi signorotti che gli creano continuamente ostacoli; von Humboldt si
indigna senza successo in keeping with los angeles schiavitù e l’oppressione di interi popoli
che vivono in condizioni di arretratezza culturale e sociale, ma los angeles sua celebrità finisce
in keeping with impedirgli di svolgere seriamente le sue ricerche. Delle loro scoperte, invenzioni
e idee si discute in modo davvero riduttivo e superficiale, ma questa è l’intenzione dell’autore e
in un certo senso, los angeles cosa risulta funzionale alla tesi centrale. Altrettanto funzionali
sono i bozzetti satirici di altri illustri personaggi dell’epoca, fra i quali Goethe e Kant (il quale
condivide con Aristotele il primato della damnatio memoriae fra i nostri contemporanei). Sulla
pretesa accuratezza storica del romanzo, è difficile pronunciarsi: ma certe battute scambiate tra
von Humboldt e Bonpland rivelano molto su quale sia consistent with Kehlmann il rapporto fra
verità letteraria e verità storica.Il fatto è che los angeles farsa tende a prevalere sulla satira e los
angeles dissacrazione finisce presto in step with diventare uno strumento spuntato proprio
perché abusato (e questo è il secondo grosso difetto del libro). Appurato che Gauss, von
Humboldt e suo fratello (a proposito: perché non viene mai nominato? confesso di non averlo
capito), Bonpland, Kant, Goethe, Daguerre, lo zar e il re di Prussia, etc. erano uomini e donne
come noi e quindi vittime di debolezze, meschinità e imperfezioni, che senso ha insistere
ossessivamente sull’insensibilità di Gauss verso i propri parenti o sulla mancanza di umorismo
di von Humboldt? Capisco l’umanizzazione, capisco anche il desiderio di farsi leggere da un
pubblico più ampio e meno preparato, ma è davvero necessario spendere decine e decine di
pagine aneddotiche in keeping with convincerci che according to Gauss risolvere un enigma
matematico period più inebriante che fare sesso con los angeles propria sposa o che von
Humboldt aveva seri problemi con l’altra metà Measuring the World del cielo? Tanto più che los
angeles spinta verso l’umanizzazione appare nettamente in conflitto con l’intento dell’autore di
caratterizzare i due protagonisti come geni incompresi in notevole anticipo sui loro
contemporanei, al punto da prodursi in previsioni publish quem un po’ sospette (soprattutto il
lungimirante Gauss).La ricostruzione storica è piuttosto scolastica e semplicistica, quella di
ambiente limitata e banale. Talvolta il linguaggio si fa un po’ troppo moderno e i personaggi si
trovano a conversare in un modo che stride notevolmente con l’epoca dei fatti narrati (come a
pagina 111: “Il missionario, con l. a. bocca piena, scosse los angeles testa. Non gliene sarebbe
fregato niente a nessuno.”). Non sembra essere un problema di traduzione. Un pregio del libro
è che si legge piuttosto in fretta, info l. a. sintassi estremamente piana e semplice e l’uso del
discorso indiretto libero.L’idea di usare un conte philosophique Measuring the World in step
with proporre l. a. propria visione di quel periodo culturale è interessante: il problema è che
Kehlmann, sia detto con il Measuring the World massimo rispetto, non è Voltaire (che
saggiamente non trascendeva mai los angeles brevità costituzionale di questo genere letterario)
e un romanzo di circa 250 pagine risulta sproporzionato agli scopi che l’autore si propone. Lo
testimoniano le lunghe, noiose e ripetitive descrizioni dei perigliosi viaggi di von Humboldt in the
United States latina e del massacrante lavoro di agrimensura di Gauss, che sembrano avere
l’unico scopo di intrattenere il lettore con aneddoti leggeri e forzatamente dissacranti in attesa
di svelargli l’arcano nell’ultimo capitolo e che purtroppo finiscono in line with indisporlo a tal
punto che quando arriva l. a. rivelazione, ormai il povero lettore ha già tirato i remi in
barca.Consigliato a chi tende a mitizzare i propri eroi, dimenticandone le debolezze.Sconsigliato
a chi non ama il racconto filosofico.["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]
