Project Gutenberg 2008-01-05 Public domain in the USA. 168 Walser, Robert 1878 1956 Jakob von Gunten: Ein Tagebuch Produced by Jana Srna and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Jakob von Gunten: Ein Tagebuch" by Robert Walser is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around Jakob von Gunten, a student at an unusual school called the Institute Benjamenta, where the education is minimal and focused on instilling obedience rather than knowledge. Jakob's reflections reveal his existential musings about identity, purpose, and the mundane yet peculiar nature of the institution and its inhabitants. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Jakob and his impressions of the Institute Benjamenta, which he views with a combination of irony and resignation. The opening portions depict his relationships with fellow students, like Kraus, Schacht, and Heinrich, each representing different aspects of life within the school. Jakob grapples with feelings of insignificance and humor as he navigates the constraints of the institution that prioritizes conformity over enlightenment. His observations are tinged with a profound sense of alienation and curiosity about the world outside the school's walls, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of human experience and individuality as the story unfolds.
