Human societ
The human inn is a actually complicated structure. It consists of a Brobdingnagian quantity of members, distri scarcelyively of them with their take thoughts, emotions and experiences. The nonion of lodge unifies alone those members and thitherfore, they moldiness correspond to the standards of that purchase lay out. They have to elaborate round special mode of living, thinking, doings in order to be ilk other. Being like all thats the main(prenominal) motto of human society of all times. inwardly the complex structure of society one coffin nail be content and rich, other unhappy and poor besides everyone tries to be like the rest. yet it is fountainhead known that each rule sewer have its exceptions. So, the human society has. There argon people who ar non able to dress their place in the society. Each of them has his own reasons. One just doesnt want to be like all, the other just cant behaviour like people around him and so on. In the orb literature the not ion of the foreigner has been alternatively often discussed. Among these discussions the view of outlander by Thomas Mann and Albert Camus ar one of the most interesting. Tonio Kroeger in the unused of the same name by T. Mann is rather a typical alien. So, what do him to be so?Surely, he is an creative person and the real artist is unendingly a little bit different from the crowd. But thither are many talented artists which are not outsiders at all in their real live(a)ness. Tonio is a lonely artist. These two words- lonely artist are able to explain the Kroegers job. The first word is lonely and the assist is artist. The lonely is the reason and the artist is the consequence. Kroeger has become an artist because he was lonely and couldnt beat himself in this bread and justter. All he can do is creating art describing the reality around him but he is not able to live in this reality.He realizes that his inability and brings a lot because of that. or so of the even ts of this story must be perceived in symbolic air because of Kroegers difficulties in being like other. His homo knowledgeable sympathy to Hans Hansen hasnt to be go out as just a physical sexual expression. This sympathy symbolizes the Kroegers aspiration for prestige bourgeois animation as Hans was the bright representative of same. Kroeger couldnt find himself in this bourgeois look but was eager of living like his average contemporaries. Thats wherefore Hans attracted him. Kroeger lived in constant paradox deep down him.His heart was the heart of an artist but in his veins the bourgeois blood was flowing. He wanted to be as easygoing and careless as his friends but he couldnt be so because his mind was depressed all the time by the events of the life around him and he could precisely describe them in his art. That was the main reason of Kroegens being the outsider. The main thing Kroeger had to read during his life was that probably his outstanding skills as an artist were conditioned by his withdrawing from the ordinary life. In other words, if he had been an ordinary bourgeois personality he wouldnt have been a gifted artist.The main reason of his sadness was that he didnt want to understand that simple thing it is not possible to connect things which can not be connected the threadbare satisfied life and the delicate, sensitive vision of the artist. Should Kroegen understand that in time, the life would be much easier for him. But he understood that later. Perhaps, thats the part of each real talent to pass through many difficulties in order to find oneself in the art. The ordinary unceasingly remains to be ordinary. It is not worth to dramatize it.We must follow things that we have skills for and thither always will be place for the ordinary in our life it will come into our lives by itself. But if talented person tries to secure the ordinary or to live surrounded by the ordinary and the exalted he or she is doomed to unhappiness a nd misfortune. Precisely that started to happen with Tonio Kroeger. When he understood that it is not possible to find compromise between the Dionysian (all the fervent and emotional) and the Apollonian (rational and reasonable) he decided to combine them in his art and that was the unique sort decision for him.Albert Camus in his Stranger gives us the other notion of outsider. Meursault a man of absurd in the world of absurd, thats the Camus vision of the hassle in case. When after the first sentence of the novel -Maman died to sidereal day follow the indifferent meditations of the protagonist regarding when died his mother today or yesterday, we understand the Meursault is only indifferent to the notions of time, place and many other phenomena of our real world. All on the novel new arguments prove that. Meursault lives being ruled by purely physical instincts.His life consists of a number of patterns (ways of behaviour) which he uses every day. For example, he becomes sa d because Sunday came and broke the customary way of his everyday life. The commove produced by the sun when he goes back from the funeral of his mother worries him more than the very death of his mother. In other words the Meursault activities look completely irrational for other people, but not paradoxically for him. Camus presents in his hero his apprehensiveness of life in general and of righteousness in particular. To separate more, Meursault believes unfeignedly in justice and truth.But he has his own notion of that truth. Yes, he doesnt cry at his mothers funeral. But on the other hand he neer dictates lies. He doesnt recover any sense in acting like the rest of people. He just shows his own true emotions or indifference in each particular moment of his life. He is independent in the full gist of this word. He doesnt believe in God, he lives by his own motives. Society tries to find some subject matter in his behaviour but all in vain. It is not possible to find se nse in absurd. Otherwise, it will not be absurd any more. Thus, Meursault embodies the Camus notion of supposed relative truth.That is not all societys truth but the truth of one person. Yes, he guns down the Arab but he believes in justice and doesnt effort to avoid it. Certainly, it sounds terribly but that is Camus absurd vision of the truth. On the one hand Meursaults activities are horrible as that his relative truth makes a lot of injure to other people but on the other hand he is not eager of making harm to anyone, he never lies, he is just living his own life which is right to his opinion. This difference between Meursaults truth and societys truth makes Meursault to be the outsider.He cant understand the sense of the societys existence (to say it more exactly he doesnt even want to understand it as it is not important for him) and the society, in its turn, cant find out any meanings in the mode of Meursaults life. Nevertheless, Meursault has learnt his lesson towards th e end of the story. When we key him sentenced to death it is already possible to speak about new Meursault. It doesnt mean that he has completely changed his incorrupt perception. He still doesnt believe in God and is sure that after death there is nothing but non-existence.But he started using his memory what he has never done sooner. He remembers his father and understands all the advantages of human memory. He had never resorted to his memories and lived only following his physical impulses. When being in prison he understood how good it can be to remember something that has happened once. Meursault starts to distinguish the gone and the future. His visual modality and feelings work like they never did before. He realizes that both imagination and feelings (spiritual, not physical feelings) are rather useful in prescribed life.Only in prison he begins to perceive each new day like a gift (as there were few left before his death penalty) without classifying them in eld whi ch are good and in days which break his customary way of life. In other words he began to understand that his life was not as correct as it seemed to him before. But he started to understand that too late when his life was going to be cut by those who havent managed to find some meaning in his life. both Tonio Kroeger and Meursault realized the mistakes of their existence.Kroeger understood that he was unable to learn living like other people because the problem which was, by the way, created by himself was already too significant and complex for him and he had to find some area in which he could get rid of that immense moral tension. That area became his art for him. Meursault couldnt change his life because he was already sentenced to death for the actions of his previous egoistic self-life. These two protagonists are similar in this respect as they both realized the necessity to change their lives. Nevertheless, there is a clear difference in being outsider between Kroeger and Me ursault.Kroeger was a brightly expressed outsider as he couldnt find himself in his society and that was hurting him a lot. He very was out of societys side. He crossed successfully with the society within his professional skills only when he was describing that society in his works. As to the commonplace reality- he was an unhappy man. Meursault, contrary to Kroegen, represents another type of outsider outsider within society. Meursault was the member of society and thats wherefore society was astonished by his behaviour. He was a stranger within society and that made his activities paradoxical.Kroeger experienced pain because he was outsider and the society didnt care a lot about it. Meursault didnt suffer a lot because of being outsider but society suffered because of his activities. speech production about the outcomes made by each of these two protagonists it is necessary to say that Kroegers conclusion was more successful than Meursaults. Kreoger found the decision of his problem in his art and Meursault had not already time for the correction of his mistakes as he realized them under the threat of guillotine. Being outsider mean to not coincide with the publics opinions and norms of life.T. Mann and Albert Camus showed us that the notion of the outsider is poly-semantic. Tonio Kreoger and the stranger Meursault are both outsiders but each in his veracious manner. Kroeger is an outer outsider (he wants to be within the society being like all) and Meursault is an inner outsider (he doesnt feel himself to be outsider but the society consider him to be so). Regarding Manns story it would be helpful to conclude that it is not worth to follow the common opinion and try to be like all. The most important thing is to preserve the skills and the high-sounding given to you by the nature.As to the Camus novel, it is possible to learn from it that being honest only for oneself is not enough, it is also necessary to thing about the society you live in and tha t ones notions of truth are not always common for all. The society was created by people precisely in order to find the compromise between different peoples opinions. Both Kroeger and Meursault have become outsiders by themselves. The conclusions they have made from their mistakes are rather consoling. So, hope that Mann and Camus novels will serve as good examples for many for not being an outsider in the future.
