* The Doctor Faustus Dossier: Arnold Schoenberg, Thomas Mann, and Their Contemporaries 1930-1951 (California, 2018).  Edited by E. Randol Schoenberg. -- ePUB


I've been waiting for this book a long time.

Arnold Schoenberg and Thomas Mann, two towering figures of twentieth-century music and literature, both found refuge in the German-exile community in Los Angeles during the Nazi era.

This complete edition of their correspondence provides a glimpse inside their private and public lives and culminates in the famous dispute over Mann’s novel DOCTOR FAUSTUS (1947).  In the thick of the controversy was Theodor Adorno, then a budding philosopher, whose contribution to the Faustus affair would make him an enemy of both families.  Gathered here for the first time in English, the letters in this essential volume are complemented by diary entries, related articles, and other primary source materials, as well as an introduction by German studies scholar Adrian Daub that contextualizes the impact these two great artists had on twentieth-century thought and culture.


"This is a splendid collection of letters and documents by two of the major figures in twentieth-century culture, Arnold Schoenberg and Thomas Mann. It presents their correspondence and writings by their contemporaries about Mann’s novel Doctor Faustus, still one of the great literary investigations of music, creativity, and madness. An impressive achievement that should be useful to scholars across many fields." -- Edward Dimendberg, Professor of Humanities and European Languages and Studies, University of California, Irvine


And don't forget: Thomas Mann - Nobel Prize in Literature, 1929 (40 books)
