Thomas Mann (1875–1955) was from Germany. At the age of 25, he published his first novel, Buddenbrooks. In 1924, The Magic Mountain was published, and five years later, Mann was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Following the rise of the Nazis to power, he left Germany for good in 1933 to live in Switzerland and then in California, where he wrote Doctor Faustus (first published in the United States in 1948).
In addition to Death in Venice, this volume includes "Mario and the Magician," "Disorder and Early Sorrow," "A Man and His Dog," "Felix Krull," "The Blood of the Walsungs," "Tristan," and "Tonio Kröger."
These stories, as direct as Thomas Mann's novels are complex, are perfect illustrations of their author's belief that "a story must tell itself." Varying in theme, in style, in tone, each is in its own way characteristic of Mann's prodigious talents. From the high art of the famous title novella ("A story," Mann said, "of death...of the voluptuousness of doom"), to the irony of "Felix Krull," the early story on which he later based his comic novel The Confessions of Felix Krull, they are stunning testimony to the mastery and virtuosity of a literary giant.

評分 評分菲德拉斯這個名字,感覺譯者沒譯好。按我的閱讀量看來,菲德拉斯應該翻譯為 斐德若。柏拉圖的對話集裏 《會飲》《斐德若》都主要有他的觀點。“神在有情人身上”(見於施特勞斯《柏拉圖的會飲》)。扯到柏拉圖,這個話題就大瞭,本人功力也不夠。
評分這裏不存在什麼天大的睏難,使他落筆艱難的是由厭倦而生的懷疑,而這種懷疑又錶現為永不滿足。 情感容易不求甚解,容易心滿意足。 要使偉大的精神産品産生深遠的影響,作者的個人命運和同代人的普遍命運之間就得存在一種不期而遇的相似甚至相同。人們不明白自己為什麼...
評分多數人都喜歡聽音樂,不同的隻是類型,但是有個普遍的規律,流行的難以持久,萬人空巷之後是萬籟俱寂,於一個時代不被多數人接受的,輾轉到另一個時代卻依然有著頑強的生命力,這種現象對於圖書亦然! 我是個酷愛純文學書的人,有人不屑的質疑我,何為純文學?我就會忍不住告訴...
