Bringing together scholars from diverse disciplines and countries,
Thomas Mann and Shakespeare is the first book-length study to
explore the always fascinating, if sometimes disturbing,
connections between Shakespeare and Mann. It establishes startling
resonances between the central works of these two authors, pairing,
for instance, Der Zauberberg with The Tempest, Der Tod in Venedig
with The Merchant of Venice, Tonio Kroeger with Othello and Love's
Labour's Lost with Doktor Faustus. Showing how the conjunction of
Shakespeare and Mann affords new, alternative perspectives on
fundamental issues such as modernity, irony, art, desire,
authorship and religion, Thomas Mann and Shakespeare challenges the
increasingly walled-in specialism of literary topics and
periodization and demonstrates the scope for new ways of reading in
literary studies.
