Beskrivning
Bruno Frank’s "Lying as a Principle of Governance" ("Lüge als Staatsprinzip"), composed in 1939 during the author’s exile in California, was not published in German until 2024. Now translated by Andrew S. Gross, this edition also contains Frank’s “For the Love of Humanity” ("Von der Menschenliebe"), along with relevant letters from Thomas and Erika Mann, all of which appear in the German edition. A new introduction by Gross places Frank’s essays within historical and philosophical context, and extensive notes increase its accessibility to an English-language readership.

Recensioner i media

"The translator’s introduction is an effective piece of writing. It brings Frank’s work into conversation with others, mostly Frank’s fellow exiles. There are also some important nods toward the vast scholarly literature around that extraordinary community of German-speaking intellectuals. " — Adam Seipp, Texas A&M University
