Paul Thomas Mann was born in Lübeck, German Empire on this day in 1875. In 1929 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
"Writing well was almost the same as thinking well, and thinking well was the next thing to acting well. All moral discipline, all moral perfection derived from the soul of literature, from the soul of human dignity, which was the moving spirit of both humanity and politics. Yes, they were all one, one and the same force, one and the same idea, and all of them could be comprehended in one single word... The word was — civilization!"
—from THE MAGIC MOUNTAIN by Thomas Mann

With rich novel of ideas, Thomas Mann rose to the front ranks of the great modern novelists, winning the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1929. The Magic Mountain takes place in an exclusive tuberculosis sanatorium in the Swiss Alps–a community devoted to sickness that serves as a fictional microcosm for Europe in the days before the First World War. To this hermetic and otherworldly realm comes Hans Castorp, an “ordinary young man” who arrives for a short visit and ends up staying for seven years, during which he succumbs both to the lure of eros and to the intoxication of ideas. Acclaimed translator John E. Woods has given us the definitive English version of Mann’s masterpiece. A monumental work of erudition and irony, sexual tension and intellectual ferment, The Magic Mountain is an enduring classic.

亞歷山大·謝爾蓋耶維奇·普希金（俄語：Алекса́ндр Серге́евич Пу́шкин，俄語羅馬化：Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin，1799年6月6日－1837年2月10日）俄國詩人，劇作家，小說家，文學批評家和理論家，歷史學家，政論家。俄國浪漫主義的傑出代表，俄國現實主義文學的奠基人，是十九世紀前期文學領域中最具聲望的人物之一，被尊稱為「俄國詩歌的太陽」、「俄國文學之父」，現代標準俄語的創始人。普希金的詩體小說《葉甫根尼·奧涅金》全景式地展示了當時俄國社會的全貌堪稱「俄國生活的百科全書」。他不僅支持十二月黨人的某些觀點，更在自己的作品中提出了那個時代的主要社會性的問題：專制制度與民眾的關係問題，貴族的生活道路問題、農民問題；塑造了有高度概括意義的典型形象：「多餘人」、「金錢騎士」、「小人物」、農民運動領袖。這些問題的提出和文學形象的產生，大大促進了俄國社會思想的前進，有利於喚醒人民，有利於俄國解放運動的發展。 普希金的優秀作品達到了內容與形式的高度統一，他的抒情詩內容豐富、感情深摯、形式靈活、結構精巧、韻律優美。他的散文及小說情節集中、結構嚴整、描寫生動簡練。普希金的創作對俄羅斯現實主義文學及世界文學的發展都有重要影響，高爾基稱之為「一切開端的開端」。[1]。代表作有詩歌《自由頌》、《致大海》、《致恰達耶夫》、《我記得那美妙的一瞬》、《魯斯蘭和柳德米拉》、《青銅騎士》等，詩體小說《葉甫蓋尼·奧涅金》，短篇小說《黑桃皇后》、中篇小說《上尉的女兒》等。

"I even now would worship balls./ I love youth's wanton, fevered madness,/ The crush, the glitter, and the gladness,/ The ladies' gowns so well designed." - Alexander Pushkin (June 6, 1799 – February 10, 1837)
"Eugene Onegin" is the master work of the poet whom Russians regard as the fountainhead of their literature. Set in 1820s imperial Russia, Pushkin's novel in verse follows the emotions and destiny of three men - Onegin the bored fop, Lensky the minor elegiast, and a stylized Pushkin himself - and the fates and affections of three women - Tatyana the provincial beauty, her sister Olga, and Pushkin's mercurial Muse. Engaging, full of suspense, and varied in tone, it also portrays a large cast of other characters and offers the reader many literary, philosophical, and autobiographical digressions, often in a highly satirical vein.
1974-75年，我在東海大學圖書館讀到他與朋友合著的 人類及其象徵 Man and His Symbols，英文精裝本，翻讀幾頁，頗受震憾。1978年，在英國倫敦的Design Museum看到它，不忘補充一本。可惜這本書後來借給朋友，流失了.....80年代中，台灣有譯本，我也補一本英文平裝本，沒味道。。
Carl Gustav Jung died on June 6th 1961. He saw himself as an empirical scientist whose sole professional interest lay in the workings of the psyche. He believedpsychology should be conceived on a grand scale, with a combination of disciplines needed to throw light on the “comparative anatomy of the mind”
