 | | Brother Narcissus, a monk at the Mariabronn cloister is the epitome of the analytical intellectual; his student, the young Goldmund, is the total opposite, an individual with the soul of an artist and a lover, born to live life to the fullest, yet fighting his desires due to paternal forces. |
 | | It is Narcissus who recognizes Goldmund as "a dreamer with the soul of a child," and urges him to leave the cloister and pursue the life he was meant to lead. |
 | | Goldmund lives out his life as a wanderer, a lover and an artist, only returning to Mariabronn and Narcissus when it is time for him to die. |
