What is Bluebeard's Chamber: Guilt And Confession In Thomas Mann; Trans. By David Fernbach about?

The Themes Of Guilt And Redemption That Grew Ever Stronger In Thomas Mann's Fiction Are Generally Ascribed To The Author's Homosexuality. This, Many Critics Have Said, Is The Basis Of The Dynamic Underlying His Creative Work In General, And The Reason For Mann's Panic In 1933 That His Early Diaries Would Fall Into The Hands Of The Nazis. Michael Maar Convincingly Explodes This Consensus. Mann Was Remarkably Open About His Sexual Orientation, Which He Saw As No Reason For Guilt. But Sexuality In Mann's Work Is Inextricably Bound Up With An Eruption Of Violence. Maar Pursues This Trail Through Mann's Writings, And Traces Its Origins Back To Mann's Second Visit To Italy, During Which The Devil Appeared To Him In Palestrina. Something Happened To The Twenty-one-year-old Thomas Mann In Naples That Marked Him For Life With A Burdensome Sense Of Guilt ... But What Exactly Was It?--book Jacket. Room With Dead Cat -- 'voluptuousness And Hot Guilt' -- Credemi. Michael Maar ; Translated By David Fernbach. First Published As Das Blaubartzimmer: Thomas Mann Und Die Schuld. -- T.p. Verso. Includes Bibliographical References (p. 119-150). Translated From The German.
