Fair use rationale for Image:Thomas mann shopenhauer.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Thomas mann shopenhauer.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

No final s
[edit]The name is Buddenbrook. There is no final s. Mann's title is the plural of the name and is therefore Buddenbrooks, instead of Buddenbrook.Lestrade (talk) 17:47, 18 February 2008 (UTC)Lestrade
Contested statement
[edit]In the "Major themes" section the following assertion is made: There are also homoerotic components in this novel, as generally in Thomas Mann's works. I would like to know exactly what these components are and where they appear in the novel and in Mann's works generally. As far as I know, there are none. Even Death in Venice had a non-erotic description of the older protagonist's fascination with youthfulness and aesthetic ideality. If no citations are forthcoming, I will delete this sentence.Lestrade (talk) 03:01, 5 March 2008 (UTC)Lestrade
Irony
[edit]In several places, the article claims that Mann's writing was ironic. I take "irony" to mean "saying the opposite of what you mean." Where, in Buddenbrooks, does Mann use irony? Is this just a parroting of Erich Heller's title?Lestrade (talk) 16:57, 13 August 2008 (UTC)Lestrade
plot summary
[edit]It seems odd that the article never summarizes the plot of the novel. 72.89.111.219 (talk) 20:39, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
Translations
[edit]Anyone want to add what English translations have been made, and their respective merits / influences? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.29.167.121 (talk) 21:32, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
