Meister Zacharius
by Jules Verne
'Meister Zacharius' Summary
Meister Zacharius, ein hoch angesehener Uhrmacher in Genf, ist bekannt für die Präzision seiner Uhren. Doch eines Tages beginnt ein unerklärliches Phänomen: seine Uhren fangen an, falsch zu gehen und bleiben schließlich ganz stehen. Dieser Vorfall versetzt ihn in tiefe Verwirrung, da er nicht in der Lage ist, die Ursache des Defekts zu finden, trotz seiner immensen Fähigkeiten. Mit jeder stillstehenden Uhr wird Zacharius schwächer, sowohl körperlich als auch geistig. Sein Verstand beginnt zu wanken, und er verspürt eine tiefe Angst, die mit dem Stillstand der Zeit verbunden zu sein scheint. Im Laufe der Geschichte wird deutlich, dass es eine geheimnisvolle Verbindung zwischen den Uhren und seinem eigenen Leben gibt. Die Uhren scheinen eine Metapher für die endliche Lebenszeit zu sein, und Zacharius steht vor der Herausforderung, die Kontrolle über sein Schicksal zu erlangen, während seine eigene Existenz langsam abläuft.Book Details
