[21] The Zulu battle trance is another example of the tendency of certain groups to work themselves up into a killing frenzy.

Zweig'ın karakterleri hislerini hep yoğun yaşıyor. Bu kitapla birlikte buna artık kesin kanaat getirdim. Bilinmeyen Bir Kadının Mektubu'nda aşkı doruk noktasında yaşayan bir kadın, Yakıcı Sır'da tutkuyu ve şehveti doruk noktasında yaşayıp onun için her şeyi yapan bir adam, Amok Koşucusu'nda da pişmanlığı en uç noktada yaşayan bir adam vardı örneğin. En azından bana göre. And this novella has reminded me, like no other by Zweig, of the writings of his British contemporary W. Somerset Maugham, whom I read years ago. Also extremely popular (the highest paid author during the 30s), he relished in these stories of “other” people and of the “Other” during the interwar and in the Colonies. In the Philippines, amok also means unreasoning murderous rage by an individual. In 1876, the Spanish governor-general of the Philippines José Malcampo coined the term juramentado for the behavior (from juramentar – "to take an oath"), surviving into modern Philippine languages as huramentado. [23] It has historically been linked with the Moro people of Mindanao, particularly in the Sulu Archipelago, in connection with societal and cultural pressures. [24]Passion, different sorts of passion, lie at the center of the story. Passion can be felt between two people. It can also be felt for one’s occupation and for an ideal. Stanley, Henry E.

Experience the interactive, fascinating and equally gloomy atmosphere! Zweig however uses it exceedingly well, because the first narrator, the anonymous Ich (Zweig?) provides us the readers with the best seat on the actual story. We are there. We talk to the second narrator. He also moves in and out smoothly, elegantly, so that some shifts in the perspective are not identified as first or second story until we have read a bit further on into the paragraph of the shifting views.
