Description:

The Department of German presents the touring multimedia exhibition Thomas Mann: Democracy Will Win, visiting the Northwestern Deering Library January 30th to March 30th.

Exiled to the USA during the Nazi regime, the German Nobel-prizewinning writer Thomas Mann was a powerful opponent of National Socialism and a committed champion of democracy. The current sociopolitical issues in Germany and the United States render his call for an active renewal of democracy “in thought and feeling” as relevant today as it was in 1933.
