Ergebnis für "Death In Venice" in Psychologie

In Thomas Mann's novella Death in Venice, a distinguished writer's holiday from the burdens of his work turns out very differently from what he expected. By means of the story, Mann explores the relationships between disciplined intellect and ungoverned passion, and between decaying age and youthful beauty, against a background that resonates today in a time of pandemics. It was first published in German (as Der Tod in Venedig) in 1912.

A stunningly beautiful youth and the city of Venice set the stage for Thomas Mann’s introspective examination of erotic love and philosophical wisdom.

El propio Thomas Mann advierte que esta novela trata sobre «la pasión como desequilibrio y degradación». Gustav Aschenbach, «arroyo de cenizas» en alemán, es un escritor maduro que goza de reconocimiento. Llega a Venecia en busca de inspiración, pero también de llenar sus días con reflexiones estéticas en un entorno idílico. En el hotel coincide con Tadzio, un joven de polaco que se encuentra de vacaciones con su familia. El muchacho se convierte en objeto de deseo y adoración; un amor ideal e imposible basado en la contemplación estética y que llevará a Aschenbach a renunciar a todo, incluso a sí mismo.
