Ein kurzer Besuch in einem Davoser Sanatorium wird für den jungen Ingenieur Hans Castorp zu einem siebenjährigen Aufenthalt, der Kurort wird zur Bühne für die europäische Befindlichkeit vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg. Fern von der erdrückenden Realität drehen sich die Gespräche unter den Patienten um Politik, Philosophie, Liebe, Krankheit und Tod. Im Juli 1913 begonnen, während des Krieges durch essayistische Arbeiten unterbrochen, konnte der Roman 1924 abgeschlossen und veröffentlicht werden.

At the end of our days we will most likely lie for eternity in the cemetery or graveyard. Many of these, now wreathed in time, have a romance and overgrown beauty as nature keeps and shelters the dead. For our varied and talented authors, a major theme, or indeed character of the stories in this volume is that very location, and how they weave it into their narratives is both fascinating, enlightening and a wonderfully distinct way of telling classic short stories.

Esta es la historia de Hans Castorp, un joven y modesto ingeniero que llega a un sanatorio ubicado en los Alpes suizos para visitar a su primo. La estancia que preveía corta se dilata en el tiempo y acaba formando parte de esta nueva forma de vida en la que se relativiza el transcurso del tiempo. Sentado en el balcón del sanatorio y envuelto en una manta, Hans reflexiona acerca de la vida, la muerte y el amor. El resultado es una de las grandes obras maestras de la literatura universal.

"Dein Leben soll kalt sein – darum darfst du keinen Menschen lieben!" Das ist der Preis, den der geniale Komponist Adrian Leverkühn dem Teufel dafür bezahlen muss, dass ihn die Inspiration nicht mehr verlässt. Die Regie von Leonhard Koppelmann hält gekonnt die Balance zwischen der dämonisch-düsteren Grundstimmung und den humoristischen Zwischenakkorden. Gemeinsam mit dem Komponisten Hermann Kretzschmar lässt der Regisseur einen klanggewaltigen Hörfilm mit musikalischer Tiefenschärfe abrollen, bei dem Dialogszenen, Erzählertexte, Musik und Geräusche harmonisch zusammenklingen.

Der Klassiker als Hörspiel. Diese Begegnung verändert sein Leben - und bringt ihm den Tod. Der Schriftsteller Gustav von Aschenbach reist zur Erholung nach Venedig und verfällt dort dem Knaben Tadzio. Trotz der Cholera, die in der Stadt grassiert, bleibt er in der Nähe des Angebeteten. Als Tadzio mit seiner Familie abreist, ist es für Gustav von Aschenbach bereits zu spät. Virtuos gelingt es Regisseur Ulrich Lampen die Sprache Thomas Manns in die Atmosphäre der sommerlich morbiden Lagunenstadt einzuweben.

Il primo grande romanzo di Thomas Mann racconta la storia di una famiglia tedesca dell'Ottocento che dopo anni di prosperità è esposta a una tragica decadenza: le basi di un patrimonio e di una potenza che sembravano incrollabili sono sgretolate da una forza ostinata e segreta. Opera di ispirazione autobiografica, questo romanzo, capolavoro della letteratura europea, esprime compiutamente la concezione estetica e politica dello scrittore tedesco, il suo rimpianto per una mitica e solida borghesia, la coscienza della crisi di un mondo e di valori.

Gregorius synes fra fødslen dømt til en uhellig skæbne: Han er nemlig barn af et incestuøst søskendeforhold og ender, trods sine forsøg på at hæve sig over sit ophav, med selv at reproducere samme synd. Ganske uvidende om deres familieforhold, bliver han gift og får børn med sin biologiske mor. Men selv denne grotesk-nedarvede, skyldløse synd ændrer ikke ved, at Gregorius er den guddommeligt udvalgte, der ad de mest snørklede stier som pave skal føre kirken ind i en ny højtid. "Den Udvalgte" er et sent mesterværk af den aldrende Mann.

Publicada en 1901, Los Buddenbrook narra la decadencia de una familia burguesa alemana a lo largo del siglo XIX. En un gran fresco que va desde 1835, cuando aún se recordaban las guerras napoleónicas, hasta 1877, poco antes de la fundación del Imperio Alemán, Mann no solo captura un descenso social, sino también las fuerzas históricas que trastocaron la existencia decimonónica y alumbraron las incertidumbres de los tiempos modernos. Basada en su propia novela familiar, la historia anuncia además temas esenciales de su obra posterior.

In Thomas Mann's novella Death in Venice, a distinguished writer's holiday from the burdens of his work turns out very differently from what he expected. By means of the story, Mann explores the relationships between disciplined intellect and ungoverned passion, and between decaying age and youthful beauty, against a background that resonates today in a time of pandemics. It was first published in German (as Der Tod in Venedig) in 1912.

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.

How can democracy be renewed and defended today? A collaboration of the Thomas Mann House, the Goethe Institute, Wunderbar Together, and the Los Angeles Review of Books.

Una Venezia estiva ammorbata da una peste incombente ospita l'inquieto Gustav Aschenbach, famoso scrittore tedesco che ha costruito vita e opera sulla più ostinata fedeltà ai canoni classici dell'etica e dell'estetica. Un sottile impulso lo scuote nel momento in cui compare sulla spiaggia del Lido la spietata bellezza di Tadzio, un ragazzo polacco. Un unico gioco di sguardi, la vergogna della propria decrepitezza, la scelta di imbellettarsi per nasconderla, sono i passi che scandiscono la vicenda.

"La montagna incantata è un fedele, complesso, esauriente ritratto della civiltà occidentale dei primi decenni del Novecento e, nella sua incantata fusione di prosa e poesia, di vastità scientifica e di arte raffinata, è il libro, forse, più grandioso che sia stato scritto nella prima metà del secolo."
