In the wake of World War I, Thomas Mann wrote the novel Der Zauberberg (1913–1924), which illustrates a change in the author’s conceptions of life, death, disease and Eros. Using intertextual theory, this book reveals the relation between the thought of Novalis, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche and Freud and the culture depicted in the novel.
