i found this one site that has a few discussion questions we could discuss here or in class or to just think about while you read.

Adding on to what Cameron said, i agree. Demian reminds me of the whole angel on one shoulder, the devil on the other shoulder kinda thing. But not really that evil, just decieving. I've been trying to read charecter analysis but they dont go really deep. They all basically say that Demian guides Sinclair and helps him out. But i really think Demian isnt human, but Emils sub concience.

I don't think that it is much of an "Evil Devil" on one shoulder, but perhaps the two sides of what is known and what is unknown. While the "angel side" will continue pushing him into the direction of what he knows, such as the light world. And the "devil side" can represent curiosity of what is unknown, like the dark world to Emil.
