Joseph und seine Brüder

Book • 1933
This tetralogy, written over 16 years, consists of four volumes: 'Die Geschichten Jaakobs', 'Der junge Joseph', 'Joseph in Ägypten', and 'Joseph, der Ernährer'.

The novel explores the life of Joseph, from his childhood as the favorite son of Jacob to his rise to prominence in Egypt.

It delves into themes of family dynamics, faith, and the struggle between good and evil, all while maintaining a deep philosophical and historical context.

Thomas Mann's work is a detailed and imaginative retelling of the biblical narrative, incorporating elements of mythology and cultural analysis.
