Thomas Mann’s novel Buddenbrooks: The Decline of a Family (1901) contains many themes connected with food and the related social, psychological, and cultural phenomena. Not only do the themes in question complete the picture of reality presented in Mann’s work, but they also constitute an element of the writer’s narrative strategy. The author of the article focuses on the antithetically related motifs of overeating, indigestion, and hunger, addressing also their aesthetic function, and concludes that they do not constitute components of the represented world, but structural elements of the novel.
