Tonio Kröger

Japanese: トニオ・クレーガー(英語表記)Tonio Kröger
Tonio Kröger
A short story by Thomas Mann published in 1903. It is also known as "Tonio Kröger." In this work, which was originally tentatively titled "Literature," the author beautifully and melancholy portrays his own childhood romantic experiences through the protagonist of the title, but the emphasis is on his own pursuit of what literature should be, and the protagonist's determination to base his creative endeavors on "human love" becomes a guiding principle not only for the author's own creative endeavors, but for all of the author's actions in a time of great upheaval.

1903年に発表されたトーマス・マンの短編小説。〈トニオ・クレーゲル〉とも呼ばれる。当初《文学》を仮題としていたこの作品で作者は,自身の少年時代の恋愛体験を題名の主人公に托して美しく哀愁をもこめて描いてはいるものの,重点は自身の文学のあるべき姿の追求にあり,〈人間愛〉を創作活動の基底に据えようとする主人公の決意は,作者自身の創作活動ばかりか,やがて激動を迎える時代のなかで作者の行動すべてを律するものになる。
