Thomas Mann’s novel The Magic Mountain presents a panorama of European society in the first two decades of the 20th century and depicts the philosophical and metaphysical dilemmas facing people in the modern age. In the years leading up to the First World War, the fundamental elements of human nature were thrown into sharp relief by the political tensions that resulted in the ultimate metaphor for the innate destructiveness of humankind: the War itself. If such a war is the true expression of human tendencies, what hope is there for the future? Through the figure of the main character of the novel, Thomas Mann explores the alternative philosophies of life available to human beings in the modern age, and invites the reader to undertake a personal odyssey of discovery, with a view to adopting a positive approach in an era that seems to offer no clear-cut answers. This book is a comprehensive commentary on Thomas Mann’s seminal novel, one of the key literary artefacts of the 20th century. The author has taken upon himself the task of explaining all the references and allusions contained in the novel, and of providing readers who know little or no German with enough explanatory comment to enable them to understand the novel and extract the maximum reading pleasure from it.

Excerpt from History and Genealogy of the Cock Cocks Cox Family: Descended From James and Sarah Cock of Killingworth Upon Mantinecock, in the Township of Oysterbay, Long Island, New York As the type of the first edition was about to be distributed there was found to be a greater demand for the work as relating to the descendants of James Cock the Quaker ancestor, 'and as it had proved impracticable to include in the first edition a number of lineages of allied families already in preparation, it has been thought advisable to issue a further edition of 105 copies. To that which has already appeared in the first edition is added a supplement of 71 pages of new matter, for the contents of which see page 404. In this is included all the corrections.
