Une merveille allusive, sombre et brillante ( ![]() Voilà un des plus beaux textes de Mann, récit romantique et mystérieux sur le lien sombre et dévorant entre l'attrait de la mort et la beauté. Dans Venise, ville aussi accueillante que menaçante, un veuf respectable est pris dans une tourmente de sentiments et de pulsions contradictoires. Qu'il y aille à Venise et qu'il meurt !!! Quelle déception, ce livre est nul. Comme on s'y attend le héros meurt à Venise, mais avant il ne s'est rien passé. Entre délires mystico -antiques et nombrilisme amoureux, Mann m'a gonflé avec son style ampoulé et tordu. Bref un livre dont je ne recommande pas la lecture.
This man in the gate of the cemetery is almost the Motiv of the story. By him, Aschenbach is infected with a desire to travel. He examines himself minutely, in a way almost painful in its frankness, and one sees the whole soul of this author of fifty-three. And it seems, the artist has absorbed the man, and yet the man is there, like an exhausted organism on which a parasite has fed itself strong. Then begins a kind of Holbein Totentanz. The story is quite natural in appearance, and yet there is the gruesome sense of symbolism throughout... It is as an artist rather than as a story-teller that Germany worships Thomas Mann. And yet it seems to me, this craving for form is the outcome, not of artistic conscience, but of a certain attitude to life... Thomas Mann seems to me the last sick sufferer from the complaint of Flaubert. The latter stood away from life as from a leprosy.

The world-famous masterpiece by Nobel laureate Thomas Mann -- here in a new translation by Michael Henry Heim Published on the eve of World War I, a decade after "Buddenbrooks" had established Thomas Mann as a literary celebrity, "Death in Venice" tells the story of Gustav von Aschenbach, a successful but aging writer who follows his wanderlust to Venice in search of spiritual fulfillment that instead leads to his erotic doom. In the decaying city, besieged by an unnamed epidemic, he becomes obsessed with an exquisite Polish boy, Tadzio. "It is a story of the voluptuousness of doom," Mann wrote. "But the problem I had especially in mind was that of the artist's dignity." Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
