This monograph examines the development of Thomas Mann’s novel "Doctor Faustus" (first printed in 1947). The author reads this text, which was written in the US during World War II, as part of a transatlantic social history of literature, tracing in particular Thomas Mann’s relationships with and influence on other intellectuals in exile.
