This month, Nobel Prize winner Thomas Mann’s The Magic Mountain turns 100. One of the 20th century’s towering literary achievements, it is a sweeping critique of the dangerous totalitarian political forces that shaped – and very nearly destroyed – Europe in Mann’s lifetime. The novel also reflects Mann’s own dramatic public and political evolution. Initially politically reserved, he became an ardent patriot at the outbreak of World War I, only to become disillusioned by the rise of political extremism in postwar Germany. This shift set Mann on a collision course with Adolf Hitler and the Nazis – and ultimately led to him fleeing Germany in 1933. This intellectual novel is interested in the weightiest of topics – time, love, mortality, culture – and the fragility of civilisation. There are worrying parallels between 1924, when Mann’s magnum opus was published, and 2024, when we’re seeing a worldwide resurgence of these same impulses. There is the rise of the far-right in France , Austria and Germany . And then, American president-elect Donald Trump’s apparent admiration for dictatorial and authoritarian modes of governance. These forces loom ominously over our own era, threatening the democratic ideals Mann ultimately embraced. Things you’ve never dreamed of This encyclopedia of a novel (nearly 800 pages) opens in transit: An unassuming young man was travelling, in midsummer, from his native city of Hamburg to Davos-Platz in the Canton of the Grisons, on a three weeks’ visit. It is August 1907. Hans Castorp, a “perfectly ordinary” 23-year-old from an upwardly mobile merchant family is journeying to meet his cousin, Joachim Ziemssen – a patient at a tuberculosis sanitarium, located (Mann’s narrator estimates) 1,600 metres above sea level in the Swiss Alps. Mann’s amenable, omniscient narrator outlines the effect on the novel’s youthful protagonist: This being carried upward into regions where he had never before drawn breath, and where he knew that unusual living conditions prevailed, such as could only be described as sparse or scanty – it began to work upon him, to fill him with a certain concern. Home and regular living lay not only far behind, they lay fathoms deep beneath him, and he continued to mount above them. Poised between them and the unknown, he asked himself how he was going to fare. This is a sign of things to come. Joachim, who has already been at the Berghof Sanatorium for five months, implores Castorp to get properly “acclimatized” when he meets him at the train station. He continues: it isn’t so easy, you’ll see. And the climate isn’t the only queer thing about us. You’re going to see some things you’ve never dreamed of – just wait. Joachim advises his cousin to disabuse himself of the “class of ideas” typical of those who dwell at sea level “down below” – especially assumptions about time. He openly scoffs at Castorp’s woefully naïve assertion that he’ll be “going home in three weeks”. Soon after his arrival, Castorp catches a cold. Berghof’s medical director spies a suspicious dark spot on his lung and recommends he extend his stay indefinitely. Castorp spends the next seven years living at altitude. Time warps and wends in increasingly strange ways, and the pace of daily life gradually grinds to a near total halt. Seasons change. Visitors come and go. Some of the patients die. Castorp falls in love with a Russian temptress resident. When he isn’t pining for her, he spends his time in conversation, gorging on elaborate and seemingly endless meals, listening to records, and occasionally attempting to commune with the spirits. In one memorable and symbolically charged moment, he gets hopelessly lost in a life-threatening blizzard. It takes the outbreak of World War I to finally shatter the spell the mountain has cast over him. The reader parts company with Castorp on a Flanders battlefield in 1914. The odds of survival don’t seem to be stacked in his favour. Of course, potted plot summaries of this sort cannot hope to do justice to the sheer ambition, thematic richness and formal rigour of The Magic Mountain. Origins: world war and political awakenings The novel’s origins can be traced to May 1912, when Thomas Mann embarked on a three-week trip to Davos, Switzerland. His wife, Katia, had been falsely diagnosed with tuberculosis and was staying at the recently opened Wald Sanatorium . Mann’s stay served as the catalyst for a new literary venture. Initially conceived as a satire, The Enchanted Mountain was meant to be a comedic counterweight to his just-published Death in Venice , which traces the tragic obsession of Gustav von Aschenbach, an ageing author, with a beautiful young boy during a vacation in cholera-racked Venice. Mann started in on what should have been a fairly straightforward, small-scale undertaking. But world history had other ideas. On August 4 1914, German troops flooded into neutral Belgium, bringing the British Empire into the week-old World War I – and shattering the cultural ideals and intellectual suppositions of pre-war Europe. Mann was 39 when the fighting broke out. A prominent figure in the German cultural establishment, Mann, who lived in Munich at the time, was in many senses a model bourgeois citizen. As intellectual historian Mark Lilla observes, Mann attended concerts, he befriended composers, he read Goethe, he sent his children to the Volksschule , and he never expressed any views about politics. That is, until 1914. “From one month to the next Mann became an intransigent and inflammatory defender of the German cause internationally,” Lilla adds, “writing articles and giving speeches that made him a favorite on the volkish nationalist right”. Rabid patriot to fleeing Nazi Germany The conflict seems to have absorbed all of Mann’s energy and focus. In 1915, he abandoned work on his novella, which had by then expanded significantly in both scope and size. Instead, he turned his attention to Reflections of a Nonpolitical Man . Published in October 1918, this 600-page tirade is a reactionary, rabid screed in which Mann lashes out at the progressive political forces and institutions he believed were intent on nothing less than the destruction of the German nation. Indeed, he goes as far as to admit that from the very start of the war, he had been consumed by a patriotic feeling so profound, he would not want to live anymore if Germany were beaten by the West, humbled, her belief in herself broken so that she would have to “conform” and accept the rationale of her enemies. Mann’s jingoistic fervour persisted even after Germany’s defeat, carrying over into the spring of 1919, when he finally returned to The Magic Mountain. However, everything had changed for Mann by 1922. Appalled by the waves of extremist political violence coursing through Germany, Mann was forced to take stock and reappraise his beliefs. That year, in an unprecedented move that shocked his supporters and critics, he wrote and delivered his speech, On the German Republic . In it, he publicly embraced the postwar Weimar Republic and the principles of its democracy, distancing himself from the types of authoritarian nationalism he had so passionately defended just a few years earlier. This remarkable development, which led to him fleeing Nazi Germany, left an indelible mark on the development of The Magic Mountain. Europe teetering on the abyss By the time he finished writing, the work had been transformed from a satirical novella into a sweeping Bildungsroman , focused on moral education and psychological development. It was now also an allegory of European civilisation teetering on the abyss – a “world festival of death”, as Mann puts it in the novel’s final sentence. Specifically, the phrase is a reference to World War I. More broadly – and just as powerfully – it reflects the sense of postwar disillusionment and social malaise that shaped the novel. The intense intellectual debates that unfold in The Magic Mountain, particularly between charismatic humanist Lodovico Settembrini and nihilistic, “terroristic” Jesuit communist Leo Naphta, offer Mann the means to reflect and comment on the totalitarian forces that were threatening to tear the world asunder. A century after the novel first appeared, its nuanced discussions of ideological conflict, the dangers of extremism and the fragility of civilisation remain, depressingly, as pertinent as ever. In 2024, the far-right has taken a firm foothold across Europe and the rest of the world, challenging the very democratic principles Mann came – albeit reluctantly – to value to champion. One can’t help but wonder what Mann, who wrote while the skies were slowly closing in over Europe, might have made of this situation. Read more: Germany's post-Holocaust moral remaking is being challenged by wars in Gaza and Ukraine – and the rise of the far-right History repeating? Would he, for instance, discern echoes of the same forces he grappled with in his modernist masterpiece, now manifesting in new, yet strangely familiar ways? And would he recognise the dangers of cultural and political polarisation and the allure of authoritarian forms of thought and activity that are currently casting increasingly long shadows over our own precarious moment? I suspect he might. In any case, these are just some of the questions worth asking as we mark the anniversary of a novel that, much like its creator, challenges us to confront the currents of history and their unsettling tendency to repeat. Near the end of the book, Mann writes: “These were such singular times.” Viewed from the perspective of 2024, I’m not so sure.Watch #13 Baylor Bears vs. #22 St. John’s Red Storm college basketball free live stream
The adoption of the most sacred document called the Constitution of India on November 26, 1949 binds together this diverse country and provides the guiding light for its governance. The Constitution of India guarantees rights to citizens and casts obligations on the State and provides for institutions of governance making them accountable to develop a vibrant democracy. Passage of seventy-five years is a good time for stock-taking of the ideals and vision of the founding fathers. The greatest ideal of any vibrant democracy is the oldest concept protected since 1215. Magna Carta provided that no free man shall be taken or imprisoned except by law of land. In India, liberty is freedom from arbitrary and unfair restraint upon an individual. No liberty can ever be absolute and nobody has liberty to disturb liberty of others. The framers of the Constitution gave little discretion to future lawmakers on life and liberty. The liberty under the Indian Constitution finds place in Article 21, which provides restrictions by ‘procedure established by law’. Life and Liberty has been given a broad meaning and interpretation to make life and democracy meaningful. The Indian Constitution was framed amidst the stress of the partition riots resulting from the greatest migration in world history. The pangs of partition had permitted preventive detention laws of the type of the infamous Rowlatt Act and the Second World War Law Defence of India Act 1939, which permitted detention on the basis of likelihood of a person commuting an offence. Democratic countries have no such laws during normal peace times. Arrest or detention is made because ‘he has committed an offence’, not because ‘he is likely to commit an offence’. The framers of the Constitution believed that in a democratic country like ours, the parliament will enact such laws only in extreme situations but that faith in the democratic legislations and the governments was belied as arrest and detention is used and misused till date. Arrest and detention under draconian laws has for political vengeance only increased in recent times. Critics of the government, public dissenters, independent political thinkers, critical journalists and in particular, those from minority community are facing the brunt of laws like Prevention of Money laundering Act (PMLA) and Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) etc which may not be strictly preventive detention laws, but various penal laws are now weaponised to incarcerate citizens whose liberty is inconvenient to the government or for political reasons. A vibrant democracy can flower in a liberal atmosphere, where dissent is celebrated as flavour of democracy. The UAPA in particular has been invoked by the government to silence its critics and PMLA is misused to silence the political opponents, so that they can no longer act inconveniently. That has struck at the very foundations of liberty and has threatened electoral democracy itself. The apex court has, of late, sharpened ‘bail, not jail’ principle giving some relief to opposition leaders and other dissenters of the establishment, but the courts have not been able to check down the sliding of liberty at the hands of a powerful executive. The Supreme Court declared the remand order of NewsClick founder Prabir Purkayastha illegal and a blatant attempt to circumvent the due process of law, but by that time Purkayastha spent many months in jail. Umar Khalid, a former JNU student arrested under UAPA on 13/9/2000, is still unable to see the light of freedom till date. Arwind Kejriwal remained in jail for six months in a PMLA case. Sidheeq Kappan, a journalist, remained in prison for nearly two years. These are just few examples of high-profile critics. A few days back our Home Minister announced that prisoners who have completed a third of their sentence would be released to get justice before this year’s Constitution Day. That is certainly a welcome step but it would be great if the political dissenters get relief, to give our democracy a new meaning. The country did not require new criminal laws but certainly required a new ‘arrest and jail code’ which could provide guidance to all the courts over the great principle of ‘jail not bail’. When provision of liberty was being discussed, a member of the constituent assembly said, “I am well aware myself how the police arrest people for reasons wholly unconnected with security or order and sometimes merely with a view to paying off old scores or wreaking private vengeance.” There has been significant democratic backsliding due to declining liberties. Earlier, it was the Emergency period and the present times when democratic institutions are formally in place with democratic ideals and liberty itself becoming a casualty, which is bringing down the quality of our democracy, entitling international rating agencies to dub us as ‘electoral autocracy’ or ‘flawed democracy’. On September 15, 1949, H V Kamat said, “Has anybody considered how some other persons, possibly totally opposed to our ideals, to our conceptions of democracy, coming into power, might use this very Constitution against us and suppress our rights and liberties? This Constitution, which we are framing here, may act as boomerang, may recoil upon us and it would be then too late for us to rue the day when we made such provisions in the Constitution.” He was so prophetic! (Cleofato Almeida Coutinho is a senior advocate, who taught constitutional laws for over three decades.)France celebrated the re-opening of the newly restored Notre Dame cathedral on Saturday at a special church service that featured a standing ovation for the firefighters who saved the 12th-century landmark during a 2019 blaze. A two-hour service attended by incoming US president Donald Trump among other world leaders began with the archbishop of Paris knocking on the doors of the cathedral three times. "Notre Dame, model of faith, open your doors to bring together the far-flung children of God in joy," archbishop Laurent Ulrich commanded, banging with a wooden staff crafted from a roof beam that survived the inferno five years ago. Trump was seated on the front row as guest of honour next to French President Emmanuel Macron, with he and other invitees marvelling at the freshly cleaned walls, new furniture and state-of-the-art lighting installed as part of the overhaul. In a short speech, Macron expressed the "gratitude of the French nation" for the restoration work, achieved at frenzied speed over the last five years. France had "rediscovered what great nations can do -- achieve the impossible", he said. One of the most moving moments came when firefighters in their protective workwear walked through the congregation to thunderous applause as the word "Merci" ("Thank you") was beamed on the intricate facade and famous belltowers of the Gothic masterpiece outside. Small crowds of Parisians and tourists braved wet weather and high winds on the banks of the River Seine to witness the renaissance of a monument which came close to collapsing due to the intensity of the flames that toppled its roof and spire. "I find it really beautiful, even more so now that the spire has been restored," Marie Jean, a 27-year-old dentist from southwest France, told AFP outside. The reconstruction effort cost around 700 million euros ($750 million), financed from donations, with the re-opening achieved within a five-year deadline despite predictions it could take decades. Workers had to overcome problems with lead pollution, the Covid-19 epidemic, and the army general overseeing the project falling to his death while hiking in the Pyrenees last year. Saturday's service featured classical music, the cathedral's choir as well as some frenetic organ-playing during the "re-awakening" of the 8,000-pipe instrument which is considered the voice and soul of the cathedral. Held up as an example of French creativity and resilience by Macron, Notre Dame's renaissance at a difficult time for the country. The sense of national accomplishment in restoring a symbol of Paris has been undercut by political turmoil that has left France without a proper government since last week when prime minister Michel Barnier lost a confidence vote in parliament. Macron is hoping the re-opening might provide a fleeting sense of national pride and unity -- as the Paris Olympics did in July and August. He scored a major coup by attracting Trump along with around 40 heads of state and government, including Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky, who was given a round of applause as he entered Notre Dame. Macron hosted three-way talks with Zelensky and Trump at the presidential palace shortly before the ceremony, with future US military support for Ukraine's war effort against Russia's invasion expected to have been discussed. Trump has vowed to end the nearly three-year Ukraine war when he takes office on January 20, sparking fears in Kyiv that he will force Ukraine to make territorial concessions to Russia. "We all want peace. But it is very important for us... that the peace is just for all of us and that Russia, (Russian President Vladimir) Putin or any other aggressor has no possibility of ever returning," Zelensky said according to the presidential website. One surprising absentee on Saturday was Pope Francis, the head of the Catholic Church. He sent a message addressed to the French people and weighed into a row about whether the place of worship and tourist attraction should remain free to enter. The "immense" numbers set to visit Notre Dame should be welcomed "generously and free of charge", he said, clearly opposing a proposition from the French culture ministry to charge for entry. The exact cause of the 2019 blaze has never been identified despite a forensic investigation by prosecutors, who believe an accident such as an electrical fault was the most likely reason. On Sunday, the first mass with hundreds of bishops and priests will take place at 10:30 am (0930 GMT), followed by a second service in the evening at 6:30 pm which will be open to the public. adp-sjw/jj

More College Football RELATED CONTENT: Hansel Enmanuel making an impact for Austin Peay on court with his 1 arm By AL LESAR Associated Press KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — No hesitation. No second thoughts. Swish. The basketball rotated around the perimeter. Hansel Enmanuel caught it and in a fluid motion drained the 3-pointer. Perfect execution for any college basketball player. Quite remarkable for a guy with one arm. Two minutes later, a steal and a layup just as effortless. Then Enmanuel blocked a shot at the basket. The slender 6-foot-6 junior at Austin Peay made an impact Sunday for the Governors in their 103-68 loss to No. 11 Tennessee. Five points, a rebound, an assist and two blocks. Every time Enmanuel steps on the floor, people notice for a variety of reasons. “He’s the biggest inspiration in college sports,” Austin Peay coach Corey Gipson said. “He has developed me. I don’t know how any person on earth can watch him play and not cry. “The only way you wouldn’t get emotional is that you don’t have a relative or friend (with a handicap). You wouldn’t believe the requests I got from people in Knoxville who wanted to meet him.” Enmanuel lost his left arm after an accident when he was 6 growing up in the Dominican Republic. However, it did nothing to his competitive spirit. After going to high school in Florida, Enmanuel was recruited by Gipson to join him at Northwestern State two years ago. When Gipson took the coaching job at Austin Peay last year, he brought Enmanuel with him. Enmanuel was not available after the game. Last week he told NCAA.com: “God chose me to do this job to send a message to everybody, and that’s what I’m going to do, I can’t complain about it.” The Associated Press contributed to this articleJaylen Blakes, Maxime Raynaud and Oziyah Sellers combined for 35 points in a 47-point, first half explosion Saturday afternoon and Stanford ran away from California for an 89-81 Atlantic Coast Conference road win in Berkeley, Calif. Raynaud and Blakes finished with 20 points apiece for the Cardinal (8-2, 1-0 ACC), who won their first ever game in ACC competition. Javascript is required for you to be able to read premium content.
