The object of my thesis is to study Konigliche Hoheit and through it come to a knowledge of the personality and character of the writer. In the first chapter I have discussed his life and his works and the second, third and fourth chapters are devoted to a study of the Konigliche Hoheit . My intention is first to give the content of the novel and then follow it up by a criticism of character - and in this the reader can obtain a clear notion of the attributes of Mann\u27s writings as well as his understanding of human emotions. The last chapter has been devoted to a scientific analysis and criticism of the novel with the view of establishing it a place in the literary world
