Oxford World's Classics

'All his powers were in decline; the only thing growing stronger in him was the conviction that all this could not last much longer, that his demise was imminent.' The Buddenbrooks (1900) was Thomas Mann's first major success. It draws on his own family history and on his vivid memories of growing up in the commercial town of Lübeck in North Germany. The narrative traces the decline of a wealthy, established merchant family, from their height during the last decades of the nineteenth century, to the onset of uncertainty in the modern world. The novel displays Mann's interest in decline as a psychological process, where artistic sensibility weakens the ruthless business instincts that founded the Buddenbrooks' prosperity. At the centre is the reluctant businessman Thomas Buddenbrook, a tragic figure who conscientiously dedicates himself to a way of life that gradually undermines him. Mike Mitchell's new English translation is accompanied by Ritchie Robertson's introduction and explanatory notes, illuminating the cultural, philosophical, and personal context of the novel's composition. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

The Buddenbrooks

Jewish Lives

A revealing biography of one of the twentieth century’s most influential writers &nbsp; Philip Roth (1933–2018) is one of the most celebrated American writers of his age. Born in Newark, New Jersey—where his short stories and thirty-one books were often set—he wrote with immense ambition and drive, along with a keen awareness of what must be done to produce great literature. Yet despite rubbing shoulders with the Kennedys and engaging in a spate of famous and infamous romances, he viewed himself as socially withdrawn, living much like an “unchaste monk” (his words). &nbsp; In this original and lucid biography, Steven J. Zipperstein captures Roth’s complex life and the astonishing range of his self-reflective writings—from “Goodbye, Columbus” and Portnoy’s Complaint to the Pulitzer Prize–winning American Pastoral and The Plot Against America. Employing extensive archival research and well over one hundred interviews, including conversations with Roth himself, Zipperstein provides an intimate and probing look at one of the twentieth century’s most influential authors, placing his work in the context of Jewishness, freedom, and sexuality in America.

Stung by Life

Philip Roth

Lively, adventurous and comprehensive, this book offers a fascinating account of the contemporary culture of pedestrianism and serves as both investigation and celebration of walking and its literature. Pedestrians have joined the forward ranks of current political debate, social thought and aesthetic practice, with consequences that this book illuminates in literature, art, digital culture and political life from around the globe. Ingeniously structured around the root word 'gress', chapters move through ingress, egress, progress, regress, aggress, congress, digress, transgress and gress itself to touch on matters as diverse as walking as a political and activist activity; notions of pilgrimage; matters of race and indigineity; animal studies; environmental studies; and digital culture. Extraordinarily comprehensive in its coverage, it examines works by writers including W G Sebald; Anne Carson; Chinua Achebe; Cormac McCarthy; Jamaica Kincaid; Paul Celan; Arundhati Roy; Norman Mailer and many more. While its subject is as timeless as the Pliocene footprints preserved in the tuff of Laetoli it is also as timely as lockdown, social distancing, pedestrian-repurposed commercial streets and the anti-racism marches. It demonstrates the scale, diversity and impact of the extensive contemporary walking literature and art in the context of the social forces and politics this resurgence enables.
