Thomas Mann of Zurich vs. Walter Tevis of Lexington
"Denn um zu wiederholen, was ich anfangs sagte:
in dem Geheimnis der Einheit von Ich und Welt,
Sein und Geschehen, in der Durchschauung des
scheinbar Objectiven und Akzidentellen als
Veranstaltung der Seele glaube ich den innersten Kern
der analytischen Lehre zu erkennen." (GW IX 488)
Thomas Mann died in Zurich on 12 Aug., 1955.
"The author left his works in his will
to the Thomas Mann archive at the ETH Zurich."
