A biography of Thomas Mann's two eldest children that provides intriguing insight into both their lives and the political and cultural shifts at the same time. Thomas Mann’s two eldest children, Erika and Klaus, were unconventional, rebellious, and fiercely devoted to each other. Empowered by their close bond, they espoused vehemently anti-Nazi views in a Europe swept up in fascism and were openly, even defiantly, gay in an age of secrecy and repression. Although their father’s fame has unfairly overshadowed their legacy, Erika and Klaus were serious authors, performance artists before the medium existed, and political visionaries whose searing essays and lectures are still relevant today. And, as Andrea Weiss reveals in this dual biography, their story offers a fascinating view of the literary and intellectual life, political turmoil, and shifting sexual mores of their times. In the Shadow of the Magic Mountain begins with an account of the make-believe world the Manns created together as children—an early sign of their talents as well as the intensity of their relationship. Weiss documents the lifelong artistic collaboration that followed, showing how, as the Nazis took power, Erika and Klaus infused their work with a shared sense of political commitment. Their views earned them exile, and after escaping Germany they eventually moved to the United States, where both served as members of the U.S. armed forces. Abroad, they enjoyed a wide circle of famous friends, including Andre Gide, Christopher Isherwood, Jean Cocteau, and W. H. Auden, whom Erika married in 1935. But the demands of life in exile, Klaus’s heroin addiction, and Erika’s new allegiance to their father strained their mutual devotion, and in 1949 Klaus committed suicide. Beautiful never-before-seen photographs illustrate Weiss’s riveting tale of two brave nonconformists whose dramatic lives open up new perspectives on the history of the twentieth century.

Modernism on File: Writers, Artists, and the FBI, 1920-1950 brings together important new scholarship focused on J. Edgar Hoover's FBI and its institutional presence in shaping and directing American print, film, and art culture. From Harlem to Hollywood, Hoover and his bureau workers were bent on decontaminating America's creativity and this collection looks at the writers and artists who were tagged, tracked, and in some cases, trapped by the FBI. Contributors detail the threatening aspects of political power and critique the very historiography of modernism, acknowledging that modernism was on trial during those years.

This essay collection examines the dynamics of memory organization and the way it varies among different media and modes of discourse in post-unification Germany. German unification has put the post-war period into a historical perspective. Such a rupture raises questions concerning the appropriate commemoration, preservation and reinterpretation of the past. The processes of reorientation after unification influenced the self-perception of literary authors as well as the social role, position and status of German literature. They also affected the way writers viewed the competition in which they found themselves pitted against visual and electronic media as rival windows on the past. In the context of several debates on German literature during the 1990s the discussion revolved not only around the adequate aesthetic representation of the historical and cultural heritage but even more so around the role of literature itself in that process. The contributions look at different discourses that were and still are concerned with reinterpreting and creating new collective symbols and narrative patterns in relation to Germany's past. The volume focuses on the effects of the characteristic discourses of the press, literature and its different genres, film, the internet and memorials on the depiction and performance of memories.

Am 21. Mai 1999 jährte sich der 50. Todestag von Klaus Mann. Zu diesem Anlass hat Nicole Schaenzler die erste umfassende Klaus Mann-Biographie vorgelegt. Das Buch ist Lebensbericht, Werkanalyse und Epochenkritik zugleich - drei Aspekte, die sich zu einem erhellenden Zeit- und Lebensbild fügen. Als zweites Kind von Thomas und Katia Mann geboren, stand Klaus Mann (1906-1949) dank seines ausserordentlichen schriftstellerischen Talents schon früh im Rampenlicht. Bis 1933 legte er in erstaunlich kurzer Abfolge mehrere Erzählbände, Romane, Theaterstücke, Reisebücher und eine Autobiographie vor. Nach 1933 im Exil avancierte er als Essayist und Herausgeber von Zeitschriften zum Repräsentanten des Anderen Deutschland. Weltoffen, eloquent und charmant präsentierte er sich der Öffentlichkeit und einem großen Freundeskreis. Die unstete, melancholische und von tiefen Zweifeln geplagte Seite seiner Persönlichkeit kannten dagegen nur wenige. Der frühe Ruhm und der erdrückende Schatten des berühmten Vaters, seine nervöse Unrast, die ihn schon bald von Ort zu Ort, von Hotelzimmer zu Hotelzimmer trieb, die Vorliebe für Grenzerfahrungen, Todessehnsucht und nicht zuletzt seine homosexuelle Neigung - all diese Facetten einer ebenso zwiespältigen wie vielschichtigen Persönlichkeit machten Klaus Mann zum tragischen Außenseiter, der nirgendwo eine Heimat hatte. Am 21. Mai 1949 nahm er sich durch eine Überdosis Schlaftabletten das Leben. In ihrem fesselnden Buch stellt Nicole Schaenzler sowohl das literarische Schaffen als auch das politische Engagement und die zahlreichen, meist von starken Ambivalenzen geprägten persönlichen Beziehungen Klaus Manns ausführlich dar.

This volume presents for the first time a study of the interface between exile and travel within the context of exile from Nazi Germany. The nineteen essays share the overarching aim to compare the tropes of travel and exile as generators of a critical discourse and as central categories within German exile, in particular literature, music and film. The essays are guided by powerful questions: How does travel compare to exile, and how much overlap is there between these two categories? How do exiles travel, as practitioners of displacement? Or rather, to what extent does the concept of travel apply to the exilic predicament? Do the terms “exile” and “travel” still have validity in our postmodern era of cosmopolitanism, ever increasing mobility, the embrace of otherness, and tourism? How does exile literature in which travel is thematized compare to the tradition(s) of travel writing? And how are the critical moments of leavetaking, re-membering home, and return imagined and narrated? The essays feature numerous German and Austrian authors, musicians, and filmmakers and lend fresh insights into German Exile and the field of Exile Studies at large.
