Das Landhaus von Thomas Mann in Bad Tölz - als Bild mein Geburtstagsgeschenk für AnnA
Von 1909 bis 1917 hat Thomas Mann mit seiner Familie neun ausgedehnte Sommerfrischen in Bad Tölz verbracht. Die Kinder konnten draußen im Park herumtollen - und Thomas Mann währenddessen in der Villa Tag für Tag seiner Arbeit nachgehen. Er hat hier an den Romanen "Königliche Hoheit" und "Felix Krull" geschrieben.

The Magic Mountain - Der Zauberberg - is a novel by Thomas Mann, first published in German in November 1924. It is widely considered to be one of the most influential works of twentieth-century German literature. In part, the work reflected Mann's experiences and impressions during a period when his wife, who was suffering from a lung complaint, resided at Dr. Friedrich Jessen's Waldsanatorium in Davos, Switzerland for several months.

"La soledad hace madurar lo original, lo audaz e inquietantemente bello, el poema. Pero también engendra lo erróneo, desproporcionado, absurdo e ilícito."
Muchas gracias, Tornasolados!!!!

Zu Thomas Mann, der heute, am 6. Juni 2025, hundertfünfzig Jahre alt wird, muss ich sicherlich nicht viel sagen, außer, dass ich den Zauberberg vor sechzehn Jahren auf Sylt gelesen habe und folgende bemerkenswerte Zeilen drin gefunden hab:
„Das verstehe ich nicht!" sagte Hans Castorp. „Ich verstehe es nicht, wie jemand nicht rauchen kann, - er bringt sich doch, sozusagen, um des Lebens bestes Teil und jedenfalls um ein ganz eminentes Vergnügen! [...] ein Tag ohne Tabak, das wäre für mich der Gipfel der Schalheit, ein vollständig öder und reizloser Tag, und wenn ich mir morgens sagen müßte: heut gibt's nichts zu rauchen, - ich glaube, ich fände den Mut gar nicht, aufzustehen, wahrhaftig, ich bliebe liegen. [...] hat man eine gute Zigarre, dann ist man eigentlich geborgen, es kann einem buchstäblich nichts geschehn. Es ist genau, wie wenn man an der See liegt, dann liegt man eben an der See, nicht wahr, und braucht nichts weiter, weder Arbeit noch Unterhaltung [...] Denn es kann einem sehr schlecht gehen, - nehmen wir mal an, es ginge mir miserabel; aber solange ich noch meine Zigarre hätte, hielte ich's aus, das weiß ich, sie brächte mich drüber weg."
Der Textauszug rechts auf dem Foto st übrigens die erste Seite einer Vorkriegsausgabe der "Buddenbrooks", gesetzt aus einer Fraktur. Diese gebrochene Schrift kann ich eigentlich genau so schnell lesen wie eine heute gebräuchliche Druckschrift. Das Lesenkönnen einer Frakturschrift war noch Bestandteil meiner Schriftsetzer-Ausbildung Anfang der sechziger Jahre des letzten Jahrhunderts.
Die Bücher wurden aufgenommen mit der Pentax K30 und dem CZJ Biometar 2,8/80.
Porque la serenidad en medio de la desgracia y la gracia en medio de la tortura, no son sólo resignación, son también actividad y encierran un triunfo positivo...

"... We know full well that the insertion of new habits or the changing of old ones is the only way to preserve life, to renew our sense of time, to rejuvenate, intensify, and retard our experience of time -- and thereby renew our sense of life itself."
- Excursus on the Sense of Time, "The Magic Mountain", Thomas Mann
A lovely tribute in the grounds of West Green House, to the Head Gardener from 1940-1986 (working for Lord McCAlpine). He leans in perpetuity on a large obelisk by the lake, with a spade in his other hand and a goose at his side.
Venice. Following Aschenbach along certain passages . . .
"The observations and encounters of a man of solitude and few words are at once more nebulous and more intense than those of a gregarious man, his thoughts more ponderable, more bizarre and never without a hint of sadness. Images and perceptions that might easily be dismissed with a glance, a laugh, an exchange of opinions occupy him unduly; they are heightened in the silence, gain in significance, turn into experience, adventure, emotion. Solitude begets originality, bold and disconcerting beauty, poetry. But solitude can also beget perversity, disparity, the absurd and the forbidden."

Das Sanatorium war das Vorbild für das "Internationale Sanatorium Berghof "in Thomas Manns Roman "Der Zauberberg".
Having just returned from Munich I had to think of the first words of Thomas Mann's novella "Gladius Dei": "Munich was resplendent. A shining vault of silky blue sky stood above the festive squares, the white colonnades, the classicist monuments and baroque churches, the leaping fountains, palaces and parks of the capital city, and its broad bright vistas, tree-lined and beautifully proportioned, basked in the shimmering haze of a fine early June day."
For me it was a cool March night, and the Protestant Lukaskirche, despite its grandeur, is not nearly as old as the Catholic baroque churches, nor is the "Wehrsteg" (a bridge over the damn separating two arms of the river Isar) quite as glamorous as Mann's white colonnades - but for me Munich is still resplendent, and it ever will be.
Buddenbrooks (1901), by Thomas Mann, chronicles the decline of a wealthy north German merchant family over the course of four generations, incidentally portraying the manner of life and mores of the Hanseatic bourgeoisie in the years from 1835 to 1877. Mann drew deeply from the history of his own family, the Mann family of Lübeck, and their milieu.
It was Mann's first novel, published in 1901 when he was twenty-six years old. With the publication of the 2nd edition in 1903, Buddenbrooks became a major literary success. The work led to a Nobel Prize in Literature for Mann in 1929; although the Nobel award generally recognises an author's body of work, the Swedish Academy's citation for Mann identified "his great novel Buddenbrooks" as the principal reason for his prize.

This place was frequently visited by the writer Thomas Mann during summers.
Guercio mi aveva consigliato di tornare a fotografare questo libro con la prospettiva della scala di legno su cui si trovava. Mi ero ripromesso di farlo non appena mi fosse arrivata la nuova fotocamera (domani!!!! arriva domani!!!!!) ma non ho resistito e così ho fatto una scappata oggi.
Ero curioso di scoprire se avrei ritrovato la scena così come l'avevo lasciata più di sei mesi fa e anche di sapere di che libro si trattasse.
E il libro era ancora lì, anche se il luogo, pur se un po' appartato, è sotto gli occhi di tutti per chi arriva a Pordenone.
Dedico a Guercio questa foto: a lui e alla strana simbiosi fra le persone che anima Flickr.
A gramigna2007, che mi ha parlato del bookcrossing posso dire che si tratta del romanzo di Thomas Mann "I Buddenbrook" . Trovarlo in luogo abbandonato mi ha incuriosito. Magari comincerò a leggerlo anch'io. Un incontro inaspettato come questo ti lascia sempre qualcosa dentro.

I love the picture on the front of my copy of Thomas Mann's Joseph and his Brothers. In particular I love the scornful expressi9on on the face of that little squirt with the unfortunate bum on the left there. Joseph has reached his lowest point ever when even the little squirt can despise him.
The picture is by Johann Friedrich Overbeck, who seems to have been a sort of German Pre-Raphaelite.

Like Mann, he came from Lübeck.

Following Luchino Visconti’s 1971 film, Death in Venice, Thomas Mann’s novella (on which the film was based) enjoyed a new lease of life. Between then and 1980, it was reprinted 10 times.
The book was first published in 1912 under its German title Der Tod in Venedig and the first English language edition appeared in 1928. It was published by Penguin in 1955 and this is a 1980 reprint to coincide with the film's release (hence the images of Dirk Bogarde and Björn Andrésen – von Aschenbach and Tadzio respectively – on the cover).
As well as being made into a film (in which Dirk Bogarde gave one of his most memorable performances), Death in Venice has also metamorphosed into an opera (Benjamin Britten’s last), a ballet and a radio play. More than a century after it was written, the book is still in print.
