Download or read book Reflections of a Nonpolitical Man written by Thomas Mann and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic, controversial book exploring German culture and identity by the author of Death in Venice and The Magic Mountain, now back in print. When the Great War broke out in August 1914, Thomas Mann, like so many people on both sides of the conflict, was exhilarated. Finally, the era of decadence that he had anatomized in Death in Venice had come to an end; finally, there was a cause worth fighting and even dying for, or, at least when it came to Mann himself, writing about. Mann immediately picked up his pen to compose a paean to the German cause. Soon after, his elder brother and lifelong rival, the novelist Heinrich Mann, responded with a no less determined denunciation. Thomas took it as an unforgivable stab in the back. The bitter dispute between the brothers would swell into the strange, tortured, brilliant, sometimes perverse literary performance that is Reflections of a Nonpolitical Man, a book that Mann worked on and added to throughout the war and that bears an intimate relation to his postwar masterpiece The Magic Mountain. Wild and ungainly though Mann’s reflections can be, they nonetheless constitute, as Mark Lilla demonstrates in a new introduction, a key meditation on the freedom of the artist and the distance between literature and politics. The NYRB Classics edition includes two additional essays by Mann: “Thoughts in Wartime” (1914), translated by Mark Lilla and Cosima Mattner; and “On the German Republic” (1922), translated by Lawrence Rainey.

Download or read book The Family in Adalbert Stifter s Moral and Aesthetic Universe written by Karen Pawluk Danford and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1991 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focuses on the role of the family in European bourgeois society and literature in the 19th century through the works of Adalbert Stifter (1805-1868). The traditional patriarchal family was undergoing a crisis arising from the very principles of commercial society, while the emerging middle-classes idealized familiar piety as part of its liberal ideology. Socialist thinkers also attacked the family for its connection to private property and inherent tension with universal humanism. Stifter struggled with the negative and positive aspects of the family in his social essays and the "Studien" and "Bunte Steine" collections. In his greatest work, "Der Nachsommer," he asserts the importance of the family for individual happiness and social cohesion, but at some cost, since the enlightened, aestheticized world he presents there rests on a such rarefied vision of human nature.

Download or read book Historia Abscondita an Index of Joy written by Nick Thurston and published by Information as Material. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. HISTORIA ABSCONDITA selects its title, format and purpose from amongst Friedrich Nietzsche's "most personal of all books", Die frohliche Wissenschaft. ("la gaya scienza"). Without a word of his own, Thurston dances with Nietzsche to the song of his aphorisms, re-reading possibility into his classic challenges through a subtle conceptual appropriation. The index of Walter Kaufmann's canonical English translation of The Gay Science provides a site and concealed syntax that Thurston opens anew, by typographically replicating that section and its edition cover but removing the reference locators. The past, present and future influences, on and of Nietzsche, become conceptually unbound in these loose-leaf pages. This book--a chapbook in form and intent--allows the new relations of alphabetised coincidence that emerge to remain joyously unstable, re-fused as they are by two cited aphorisms.
