Abstract
The research is devoted to the acute problem of the dialectics of conception and implementation in literary work on the basis of Th. Mann’s «The Magic Mountain», one of the key «intellectual» novels of the first half of the 20th century. Unknown archival materials are being introduced into the Russian literary studies - the so-called «Yale» manuscript of the German classic’s work. As a result, additional light is shed on the genre specifics of the novel, as well as on the nature of the evolution of the protagonist’s image.
