Brief Overview

«Joseph and His Brothers» is a tetralogy by Thomas Mann, consisting of the novels «The Stories of Jacob», «Young Joseph», «Joseph in Egypt», and «Joseph the Provider». The book is an epic narrative based on the biblical story of Joseph, the son of Jacob. Mann delves deeply into themes of betrayal, redemption, destiny, and human nature. Joseph, Jacob's beloved son, becomes the target of envy and hatred from his brothers, who sell him into slavery. In Egypt, Joseph faces numerous trials, but through his wisdom and ability to interpret dreams, he rises to a high position at Pharaoh's court. Ultimately, Joseph reunites with his family, forgives his brothers, and saves them from famine, demonstrating the greatness of spirit and the power of forgiveness.
