The Glass Bead Game (German: Das Glasperlenspiel) is the last full-length novel of the German author Hermann Hesse. It was begun in 1931 and published in Switzerland in 1943 after being rejected for publication in Germany due to Hesse's anti-Fascist views.[1] A few years later, in 1946, Hesse went on to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. In honoring him in its Award Ceremony Speech, the Swedish Academy said that the novel "occupies a special position" in Hesse's work.[2]
"Glass Bead Game" is a literal translation of the German title, but the book has also been published under the title Magister Ludi, Latin for "Master of the Game", which is an honorific title awarded to the book's central character. "Magister Ludi" can also be seen as a pun: lud- is a Latin stem meaning both "game" and "school". However, the title Magister Ludi is misleading, as it implies the book is a straightforward bildungsroman. In reality, the book touches on many different genres, and the bulk of the story is on one level a parody of the biography genre.

本书是老年黑塞回溯其一生的精神体验的结晶。作品从1931年写到1934年,几乎与希特勒上台到灭亡同步。作者的目标很明确:“一是构筑抗拒毒化以卫护我得以生存的精神空间,二是表达悖逆野蛮势力的精神思想”。十二载的苦心经营,作者几乎动用了一切文学手段:诗歌、格言、书信、传记、理论等等,在这部小说中可称应有尽有,而且各种题材在书中既打成一片又相对独立,如作为附录的三篇记述不同历史时期不同国家信仰者的传记,貌视互不相关,却在本质上与整部作品浑然一体,密切呼应。
