Descriere completă

''All his powers were in decline; the only thing growing stronger in him was the conviction that all this could not last much longer, that his demise was imminent.''The Buddenbrooks (1900) was Thomas Mann''s first major success. It draws on his own family history and on his vivid memories of growing up in the commercial town of Lübeck in North Germany. The narrative traces the decline of a wealthy, established merchant family, from their height during the last decades of the nineteenth century, to the onset of uncertainty in the modern world. The novel displays Mann''s interest in decline as a psychological process, where artistic sensibility weakens the ruthless business instincts that founded the Buddenbrooks'' prosperity. At the centre is the reluctant businessman Thomas Buddenbrook, a tragic figure who conscientiously dedicates himself to a way of life that gradually undermines him. Mike Mitchell''s new English translation is accompanied by Ritchie Robertson''s introduction and explanatory notes, illuminating the cultural, philosophical, and personal context of the novel''s composition.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
