The translation by Willard Trask makes it yet clearer how unfortunate the English world was to have Mann introduced to it through Helen Lower-Porter. I can't speak for faithfulness to the original, but surely Mann's German does not make for cringing and headaches as often as Lowe-Porter's English does; I imagine that the immense, startling beauty of Mann-via-Woods is more the thing.

Thomas Mann was born into a well-to-do upper class family in Lubeck, Germany. His mother was a talented musician and his father a successful merchant. From this background, Mann derived one of his dominant themes, the clash of views between the artist and the merchant.
