Summary "Gesichte: Essays und andere Geschichten" by Else Lasker-Schüler is a collection of essays and stories written in the early 20th century. The work features a variety of themes and reflections, touching upon personal, societal, and artistic experiences. Lasker-Schüler's distinctive voice emerges as she explores profound questions about human existence, relationships, and the existential condition of her time. The opening of the collection begins with a piece titled "Sterndeuterei," where the narrator presents a poetic and philosophical contemplation on the human condition, intertwined with celestial imagery. The prose reveals a deep emotional landscape, suggesting that human suffering and joy are connected to the movements of stars and celestial bodies. The narrator reflects on the medical world's shortcomings in understanding patients' spiritual and existential needs. This blend of the metaphysical with the tangible establishes the tone for the essays that follow, inviting readers to ponder the interplay between humanity and the cosmos, as well as the complexity of personal identity and experience.
