Summary "Der Zauberberg. Erster Band" by Thomas Mann is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Hans Castorp, a young man who embarks on a voyage to a sanatorium in Davos, Switzerland. The narrative explores themes of time, health, and the clash between the ordinary and extraordinary, as well as the perspectives of life and death set against the backdrop of Europe before World War I. At the start of the novel, Hans Castorp is introduced as a simple, unassuming young man traveling from Hamburg to Davos-Platz for a three-week visit. As he embarks on his train journey, he experiences a shift in perspective, noticing the vast difference between the mountain landscape and his everyday life. Upon arrival, he is greeted by his cousin Joachim Ziemßen, who is living at the sanatorium due to health issues and anticipates that Hans's short stay may stretch longer. The opening sets the tone for a deep exploration of Hans's evolving consciousness in this isolated world, populated by individuals grappling with their own existential dilemmas amid the scenic beauty of the Alps.
