Book Synopsis
Bontempelli analyses important motives and situations of the novel by examining Manns strategy of positioning within the literary field of his time. In his socio-analysis he offers a critical reading of selected episodes, figures and conflicts of the novel and thus summarizes Manns complex network of distinctions, social classifications and ruler dynamics. Furthermore, the symbolical order of the novel is analysed with regard to the work ethics, putting the Buddenbrooks in the context of two masters of the protestant Bourgeoisie of their time: Max Weber and Werner Sombart.
