fiction into the mainstream of European literature. His second major
work,The Magic Mountain (1924), explores the heady intellectual
culture of the chaotic and broken Germany that emerged from the First
World War, and, along with the earlier Buddenbrooks, earned him
a Nobel Prize for literature in 1929. Mann himself considered The
Magic Mountain to be his greatest novel, and few in his own day
doubted the preeminence of this modernist classic; however, many have
argued that the age of literary modernism has passed. If this is so,
how might we best understand Mann's masterpiece now? Topics
covered in this volume, which aims to provide both a survey of and new
research into important aspects of the work, include Mann's comic
vision, his homosexuality, his fraught attitude toward Jews, the place
of his novel in the landscape of postmodern life, the theme of
solitude, music in the novel, and technology.
