Thomas Mann „Der Tod in Venedig“ (1911)
Literary discussion in the Fallada House
In his homoerotically charged novella, we encounter an artist caught between attitude and sympathy with the abyss. It is probably Thomas Mann's most famous story, laid out like a classical tragedy with references to ancient mythology and literature. Despite this, Thomas Mann repeatedly emphasized that "all the phenomena (...) are exactly copied from the reality of travel". In May 1911, Thomas Mann traveled to Venice with his wife.
