«Ein Zeitalter wird besichtigt» is Heinrich Mann's memoir, published in 1988 by Fischer (Tb.), Frankfurt in paperback (768 pages, in German).
Written in Californian exile, these memoirs focus not on Mann's private life but on portraits of historical figures: from the French Revolution and Napoleon to Wilhelmine Germany, the Weimar Republic, and exile under National Socialism.
This edition belongs to Heinrich Mann's Studienausgabe in Einzelbänden and includes an afterword by Klaus Schröter and an appendix of materials prepared by Peter-Paul Schneider.
For readers interested in twentieth-century German history, exile literature, and biographical portraits.
Luiz Heinrich Mann, best known as simply Heinrich Mann, was a German writer known for his sociopolitical novels. From 1930 until 1933, he was president of the fine poetry division of the Prussian Academy of Arts. His fierce criticism of the growing Fascism and Nazism forced him to flee Germany after the Nazis came to power during 1933. He was the elder brother of writer Thomas Mann.
