Lotte in Weimar: Thomas Mann, Goethe y el exilio

  • Ana Pérez

Abstract

The presence of Goethe in Thomas Mann can already be traced in his early works. Nevertheless, starting from the 20s Goethe begins to acquire a different meaning for Mann, as a representative of the humanist values of the bourgeois culture, in a process that assumes more specific profiles from 1933 on. In the context of exile, «Lotte in Weimar» arises as a historical novel in which Mann, together with Goethe, defines himself by facing nationalsocialism as part of the humanist and universal tradition of the German culture, critically featuring, at the same time, troublesome aspects of this culture.
