The book, Hesse's ninth novel, was written in German, in a simple, lyrical style. It was published in the U.S. in 1951 and became influential during the 1960s. Hesse dedicated Siddhartha to his wife Ninon (\"Meiner Frau Ninon gewidmet \") and supposedly afterwards to Romain Rolland and Wilhelm Gundert. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The word Siddhartha is made up of two words in the Sanskrit language, siddha (achieved) + artha (what was searched for), which together means \"he who has found meaning (of existence)\" or \"he who has attained his goals\". In fact, the Buddha's own name, before his renunciation, was Siddhartha Gautama, Prince of Kapilvastu, Nepal. In this book, the Buddha is referred to as \"Gotama\".\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHermann Hesse\u003c\/b\u003e (German: 2 July 1877 - 9 August 1962) was a German poet, novelist, and painter.
