John Woolman He did not make much of an impression on his mentors when he attended classes as a special student at the University of Mississippi. "Mr. Faulkner, what did Shakespeare have in mind when he put those words in the mouth of Othello?" an English professor once asked him. "How should I know?" he replied. (ALA 65). 1924 quit postmaster at Oxford, Mississippi post office: "As long as I live under the capitalistic system I expect to have my life influenced by the demands of moneyed people. But I will be damned if I propose to be at the beck and call of every itinerant scoundrel who has two cents to invest in a postage stamp. This, sir, is my resignation." (ALA 66). He briefly worked in a New York bookstore in 1921. According to his employer: "He was an excellent book salesman, almost insulting customers who picked up what he considered worthless books, and pressing better books upon them with the words, 'Don't read that trash; read this.'" (ALA 66). To a critic who had written a book analyzing his work Faulkner wrote: "You found implications which I had missed. I wish that I had consciously intended them. I will certainly believe that I did it subconsciously and not by accident." (ALA 67)

ClassicNotes: William Faulkner
william faulkner. Biography of william faulkner. william faulkner wasborn on September 25, 1897 and began to write poetry as a teenager.
http://www.gradesaver.com/ClassicNotes/Authors/about_william_faulkner.html

Extractions: William Faulkner was a prolific writer who became very famous during his lifetime but who shied away from the spotlight as much as possible. He is remembered as both a gentlemanly southern eccentric and an arrogant, snobbish alcoholic. But perhaps the best way to describe Faulkner is to describe his heritage, for, like so many of his literary characters, Faulkner was profoundly affected by his family. Faulkner's great grandfather, Colonel William Falkner (Faulkner added the "u" to his name), was born in 1825 and moved to Mississippi at the age of 14. He was a lawyer, writer, politician, soldier, and pioneer who was involved in several murder trials including two in which he was accused and was a best-selling novelist. During the Civil War he recruited a (Confederate) regiment and was elected its colonel, but his arrogance caused his troop to demote him and he left to recruit another regiment. After the war he became involved in the railroad business and made a lot of money; he bought a plantation and began to write books, one of which became a best-seller. He ran for Mississippi state legislature in 1889, but his opponent shot and killed him before the election. Faulkner's grandfather was the colonel's oldest son, John Wesley Thompson Falkner. He inherited his father's railroad fortune and became an Assistant U.S. Attorney. He later became the president of the First National Bank of Oxford, Mississippi.

Extractions: Resources The Unvanquished Contents The Title Character List Thomas Sutpen's Dynasty The Title The plot of the novel is reminiscent of 2 Samuel 13-18, in which King David's eldest son, Amnon, has incestual relations with his sister Tamar. In retribution, their brother Absalom kills Amnon. The title alludes specifically to 2 Samuel 18, in which David learns of Absalom's death by Joab: And the king said unto Cushi, Is the young man Absalom safe? And Cushi answered, The enemies of my lord the king, and all that rise against thee to do thee hurt, be as that young man is. And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son! (2 Sam 18: 32-33) Character List Names in bold face indicate major or significant characters.

http://www.epdlp.com/faulkner.html

Extractions: U no de los novelistas estadounidenses más importantes de este siglo, famoso por sus cerca de veinte novelas en las que retrata el conflicto trágico entre el viejo y el nuevo sur de su país. El mayor de cuatro hermanos de una familia tradicional sureña, nació en New Albany (Mississippi) el 25 de septiembre de 1897 y creció en las cercanías de Oxford. En 1915 abandonó el colegio, que detestaba, para trabajar en el banco de su abuelo. En la I Guerra Mundial ingresó en las fuerzas aéreas de Canadá sin llegar nunca a entrar en acción. A su regreso ingresó como veterano en la Universidad de Mississippi, que pronto abandonó para dedicarse a escribir viviendo de trabajos ocasionales. En 1924 publicó por su cuenta El fauno de mármol , un libro de poemas poco originales. Al año siguiente viajó a Nueva Orleans donde trabajó como periodista y conoció al escritor de cuentos estadounidense Sherwood Anderson, que le ayudó a encontrar un editor para su primera novela, La paga de los soldados (1926), y le convenció para que escribiera acerca de la gente y los lugares que conocía mejor. Esta novela narra la historia de un soldado joven que vuelve a casa después de la I Guerra Mundial, inválido física y mentalmente, y cómo su enfermedad y muerte posterior afectan a su familia y amigos. Después de un breve viaje por Europa volvió a casa y comenzó a escribir su serie de novelas barrocas e inquietantes, ambientadas en el condado ficticio de Yoknapatawpha (inspirado en el condado de Lafayette, Mississippi), habitándolo con sus propios antepasados, indios, negros, oscuros ermitaños provincianos y groseros blancos pobres.

Extractions: Faulkner Robert CapaMagnum in full WILLIAM CUTHBERT FAULKNER, original surname FALKNER (b. Sept. 25, 1897, New Albany, Miss., U.S.d. July 6, 1962, Byhalia, Miss.), American novelist and short-story writer who was awarded the 1949 Nobel Prize for Literature As the eldest of the four sons of Murry Cuthbert and Maud Butler Falkner, William Faulkner (as he later spelled his name) was well aware of his family background and especially of his great-grandfather, Colonel William Clark Falkner, a colourful if violent figure who fought gallantly during the Civil War, built a local railway, and published a popular romantic novel called The White Rose of Memphis . Born in New Albany, Miss., Faulkner soon moved with his parents to nearby Ripley and then to the town of Oxford, the seat of Lafayette county, where his father later became business manager of the University of Mississippi. In Oxford he experienced the characteristic open-air upbringing of a Southern white youth of middle-class parents: he had a pony to ride and was introduced to guns and hunting. A reluctant student, he left high school without graduating but devoted himself to "undirected reading," first in isolation and later under the guidance of Phil Stone, a family friend who combined study and practice of the law with lively literary interests and was a constant source of current books and magazines.
