Magic science on the mountain: Science and myth in Thomas Mann's Der Zauberberg (1999)

unapi

Description “In this article, I examine two texts that aim, in Huxley's words, to harmonize the `old beloved raw materials' of myth with modern science: A.N. Whitehead's Science and the modern world (first published in 1926) and Thomas Mann's Der Zauberberg (1924).”
