Cuentos tardíos, 1919-1953
Un volumen con los cuentos tardíos y de madurez de Thomas Mann, con grandes obras del autor como «Señor y perro» y «Mario y el mago». En este segundo volumen de relatos se recoge la narrativa breve de Thomas Mann escrita entre 1919 y 1953, un periodo clave de su vida, cuando se afianzan sus posiciones socialdemócratas y sus convicciones humanistas. De los textos incluidos, quizá el más famoso sea «Mario y el mago», que retrata a un siniestro hipnotizador italiano en el que se ha visto un trasunto de Mussolini y una denuncia de los totalitarismos incipientes en los años veinte. Aparecen a su lado obras muy conocidas como «Señor y perro» y «La engañada», pero también rarezas como «Cantar de la niñita», un cuento escrito en hexámetros nunca antes traducido al español.

Señor y perro (1919)
El cantar de la niñita (1919)

Thomas Mann was a German novelist, short story writer, social critic, philanthropist, essayist, and Nobel Prize laureate in 1929, known for his series of highly symbolic and ironic epic novels and novellas, noted for their insight into the psychology of the artist and the intellectual. His analysis and critique of the European and German soul used modernized German and Biblical stories, as well as the ideas of Goethe, Nietzsche, and Schopenhauer. His older brother was the radical writer Heinrich Mann, and three of his six children, Erika Mann, Klaus Mann and Golo Mann, also became important German writers. When Hitler came to power in 1933, Mann fled to Switzerland. When World War II broke out in 1939, he emigrated to the United States, from where he returned to Switzerland in 1952. Thomas Mann is one of the best-known exponents of the so-called Exilliteratur.
