Old age, an inevitable outcome of the process of aging, in which biological, mental and social changes lead to biological and mental imbalance, has been present as a subject in literature since the very beginning, and we can find both male and female elderly protagonists, with the changes observable in their final stages of lives. The article analyses selected protagonists of literary works of Martin Walser created in the 20th century, their spiritual, emotional and physical aging, problems of sexual nature, the deepening gap between elderly women or man and the young generation, or loneliness and lack of understanding connected with aging. The subject of transience, aging, declining vital force, existential dilemmas which accompany the last years of life, has been present in Walser’s works for decades, not only in those created recently the motif of the fear of life, the truth, ageing, loss and inevitable death, determining the attitudes and actions of the protagonists has been particularly foregrounded. The early works “A Runaway Horse” and “Breakers” provide material for analysis herein.

en Untersuchungsgegenstand bildet das Problem der Altersliebe in ausgewählten Werken von Martin Walser, die im XX. und XXI. Jahrhundert entstanden sind, das in ihnen dargestellte geistige, emotionale und körperliche Altern der männlichen Protagonisten sowie die damit verbundenen Probleme im Bereich der Sexualität, die Kluft zwischen den Senioren und der Jugend, ihre Einsamkeit und Liebessuche. Die Thematik der Vergänglichkeit, des Altseins, der schwindenden Kräfte und existenzieller Probleme, die mit dem fortgeschrittenen Lebensalter einhergehen, ist in vielen Romanen Martin Walsers präsent, doch besonders in den Werken der letzten 15 Jahre tritt das Themenkomplex Liebe und Altern sichtbar in den Vordergrund. Dieses zu beschreiben, ist das Ziel dieser Analyse.

Przedmiotem analizy są wybrane sylwetki męskich bohaterów dzieł Martina Walsera powstałych w XX i XXI wieku, ich starzenie się duchowe, emocjonalne i fizyczne oraz związane z tym procesem problemy natury seksualnej, pogłębiająca się przepaść między seniorami a pokoleniem ludzi młodych czy związana ze starzeniem się samotność i niezrozumienie. Tematyka przemijania, starości, spadających sił witalnych, rozterek egzystencjalnych towarzyszących schyłkowi życia obecna jest w pisarstwie Walsera od dziesięcioleci, jednak zwłaszcza w utworach napisanych w ostatnich 15 latach motyw determinującego postawy i postępowanie bohaterów lęku przed starością, utratą miłości i nieuchronną śmiercią eksponowany jest w sposób szczególny. Celem pracy jest analiza zjawiska starości i miłości w wieku dojrzałym ukazana w owych utworach.

Martin Walsers Novelle Ein fliehendes Pferd ist Psychogramm und Gesellschaftsanalyse zugleich; Themen wie Diskrepanz von Lebensplan, gespielte Rollen und Alltagsrealität, sowie der Verlust des Ichs, die Suche nach der eigenen Identität, Beziehungsarmut, Produktion von Schein, Lebenssterilität und der Mangel an wahrer Kommunikation werden durch die Gestalten der Novelle projiziert. Die Viererkonstellation der Novelle zeigt eine starke Polarität der Männergestalten, die aber tief von einem gemeinsamen Fluchtzwang geprägt ist. Die grundlegende Zielsetzung des Artikels ist die Problematik der Charaktergestaltung unter die Lupe zu nehmen, sodass der Fokus an das schachspielartige Verhältnis von Helmut und Klaus gesetzt wird.
EN
Martin Walser’s short story called Ein fliehendes Pferd is simultaneously a psychogram and analysis of the society depicted; discrepancy and sterility of life, performed roles and reality, loss of the self, search for identity, relational poverty, construction of fake identities and the lack of real communication are themes projected into the novella through the characters. The constellation of the four figures reveals a strong polarity between the male characters, being deeply marked by the compulsion to flee. The main aim of the present paper is the analysis of various aspects of the character constellation so that the focus is directed on Helmut and Klaus’ chess-like relationship.
