DESCRIPTION - Thomas Mann produced only two fragments of autobiography, claiming that such writing Ian impossible task from the point of View Of literary tact', and he skillfully concealed in his work the autobiographical elements on which he drew so heavily. But during his life he wrote so his daughter Erika estimates more than 20,000 letters. It is these letters which form the basis for Richard Winston's brilliant and detailed study of the first thirty-five years of Mann's life: his childhood and adolescence in the social and financial security of his family's grain business in Lubeck (transmuted into the world of BUDDENBROOKS, his first literary success, written in his early twenties); his close relationship with his older brother Heinrich; the anguish and exuberance of his wooing, recorded in the charming letters to Katia Pringsheim. There followed marriage, children, his only stage play, Forenza, and the writing Of his novel ROYAL HIGNESS, which he called 'an attempt to come to terms, as a writer, with my own happiness'. Ahead (beyond the confines of this book) lay the rise of Hitler, Mann's exile, and life in America. THE MAGIC MOUNTAIN and DR FAUSTUS, the Nobel Prize. Richard Winston, who died late in 1979, was an eminent translator, working in several languages, but chiefly in German. With his wife Clara he translated (among many other works) THE LETTERS OF THOMAS MANN: 1889-1955, and he lectured in Germany on 'Translation ana Thomas Mann' This is a work of careful and imaginative biography, rich in discoveries and insights, chronicling the youthful ideas, influences and experiences of one of the towering literary figures of our century. inventory #48029.
