Thomas Mann draws more and more the attention of philosophers and philosophyscholars. Indeed, his work shows a remarkable degree of conceptual intensity. Thecultural refinement and richness of many of his writings are notewhorty and contributeto the discussion of themes and questions which traditionally are associatedwith philosophical studies. By reviewing and illustrating them, the present essay givesan account of some interpretative perspectives and traditions which over the last yearshave enriched the comprehension of Thomas Mann's works and have integratedthem into larger intellectual debates: from cultural history and philosophy of culture(Kulturphilosophie) to music and musicology, from theories about the irony of art topolitical culture. A particular stress is put on the recent German critical edition ofBetrachtungen eines Unpolitischen by Hermann Kurzke: his commentary and philologicalfindings provide new interpretative perspectives and ideas which show howmuch that essay, written by Mann during the years of the First World War, can be ofinterest also for history of political thought scholars.
