Summary

Thomas Mann (1875–1955) zählt zu den bedeutendsten Schriftstellern der deutschen und europäischen Literatur. Geboren in Lübeck als Sohn eines Kaufmanns, prägten ihn früh das großbürgerliche Milieu und der Gegensatz zwischen Kunst und Bürgertum, der später zu einem zentralen Thema seines Werks wurde. Bereits mit seinem Debütroman Buddenbrooks gelang ihm ein literarischer Welterfolg, der 1929 mit dem Nobelpreis für Literatur gewürdigt wurde. Mann lebte und wirkte in Deutschland, der Schweiz und später im Exil in den USA, nachdem er sich offen gegen den Nationalsozialismus positioniert hatte. Sein Werk verbindet psychologische Tiefe, gesellschaftliche Analyse, Ironie und philosophische Reflexion. Thomas Manns Einfluss reicht weit über seine Lebenszeit hinaus: Er steht bis heute für einen humanistischen Geist, intellektuelle Verantwortung und die Auseinandersetzung mit den großen Fragen von Kultur, Moral und Geschichte. Thomas Manns Werke kreisen um den Konflikt zwischen Individuum und Gesellschaft, Geist und Leben, Kunst und Macht; sie sind bis heute spannend und beliebt, weil sie zeitlose menschliche Fragen mit erzählerischer Eleganz und geistiger Tiefe verbinden. Ihre literarische und kulturelle Bedeutung wirkt bis in die Gegenwart fort.
Diese Sammlung vereint die größten und einflussreichsten Texte Thomas Manns und bietet einen umfassenden Überblick über sein literarisches Schaffen. Sie versammelt Romane, Novellen, Erzählungen und Dramen, die zu den Klassikern der deutschen Literatur gehören und den Autor in seiner ganzen thematischen und stilistischen Vielfalt zeigen:
Buddenbrooks – Verfall einer Familie schildert den Niedergang einer Lübecker Kaufmannsfamilie über mehrere Generationen und ist ein Meisterwerk des realistischen Gesellschaftsromans. Der Zauberberg gilt als philosophischer Bildungsroman, der Krankheit, Zeit und Ideologien am Vorabend des Ersten Weltkriegs reflektiert. Mit Joseph und seine Brüder – bestehend aus Die Geschichten Jaakobs, Der junge Joseph, Joseph in Ägypten und Joseph der Ernährer – schuf Mann eine monumentale Neuerzählung biblischer Stoffe, die Mythos, Geschichte und Moderne verbindet. Doktor Faustus thematisiert Schuld, Genie und den moralischen Zusammenbruch Deutschlands anhand des Schicksals eines Komponisten. Lotte in Weimar und Der Erwählte zeigen Manns spielerisch-ironischen Umgang mit deutscher Kulturgeschichte, während Bekenntnisse des Hochstaplers Felix Krull als humorvoller Künstler- und Schelmenroman begeistert.
Die Novellen, darunter Tonio Kröger, Der Tod in Venedig und Mario und der Zauberer, zählen zu Manns bekanntesten Texten und verdichten zentrale Motive wie Künstlerexistenz, Verführung, Macht und Tod. Sie zeichnen sich durch psychologische Präzision und symbolische Tiefe aus. Auch weniger bekannte Erzählungen erweitern dieses thematische Spektrum eindrucksvoll. Das Drama Fiorenza rundet die Sammlung ab und zeigt Thomas Manns literarische Vielseitigkeit.

    The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller!  From the acclaimed, bestselling author of Make Your Bed—a short, inspirational book of advice and leadership lessons that Admiral McRaven collected over his four decades as a Navy SEAL.    The title “Bullfrog” is given to the Navy SEAL who has served the longest on active duty. Admiral McRaven was honored to receive this honor in 2011 when he took charge of the United States Special Operations Command. When McRaven retired in 2014, he had 37 years as a Navy SEAL under his belt, leading men and women at every level of the special operations community. In the ensuing four years, he served as Chancellor to the entire University of Texas System, with its 230,000 students and 100,000 faculty and health care workers.   During those four decades, Admiral McRaven dealt with every conceivable leadership challenge, from commanding combat operations—including the capture of Saddam Hussein, the rescue of Captain Phillips, and the raid for Osama bin Laden.   The Wisdom of the Bullfrog draws on these and countless other experiences from Admiral McRaven’s incredible life, including crisis situations, management debates, organizational transitions, and ethical dilemmas, to provide readers with the most important leadership lessons he has learned over the course of his forty years of service.    Each chapter provides a Make Your Bed-like parable, rich with insights about the specific leadership traits required to be at the top of your game. The Wisdom of the Bullfrog is Admiral McRaven’s clear-eyed treatise on the leadership qualities that separate the good from the truly great.

    Teens savagely murder a couple in the name of their vampire cult. A sex-starved teacher cannot get enough of her young male student. The case of a missing child keeps cops awake at night for years after his confounding disappearance.  During his decades-long crime coverage in Central Florida, journalist Frank Stanfield covered every atrocity that man or nature could unleash.  Vampires, Gators, and Wackos: A Florida Newspaperman’s Life recounts some of the frequently craven, and at times downright stupid, crimes Stanfield covered during his time in the field. He somehow made it through without winding up more mental than the crackpots he tracked. However, his unvarnished, no-holds-barred account of news events reveals just how crazy-making a case can be when you are dead set on nailing the truth.  “Here’s a tip for young reporters: Don’t beat the cops to a homicide. Crowds at murder scenes are sometimes wildly angry, drunk, high, confused and looking at a face that is decidedly out of place in their neighborhood. In those days we wore nice clothes, even ties, if not jackets, to a crime scene. ‘Who are you?’ they asked, figuring I must be a cop, because surely, no sane person would show up unarmed in the middle of a melee.” - Frank Stanfield
