John Dos Passos (1896-1970) Contributing Editor: Robert C. Rosen Classroom Issues and Strategies The biographies of U.S.A. are slices of history; their broader contexts are alluded to but not spelled out. To appreciate fully the nuances of Dos Passos's language, the significance of his descriptive details, and the force of his sarcasm, a reader needs to know a lot of history. The Portable Veblen , edited by Max Lerner; the last paragraph alone might suffice.) Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues "The Body of an American" is about the waste of war and the public and official cant that surrounds it. These issues should be of interest to students who have friends or relatives facing military service or who are themselves of draft or enlistment age. "The Bitter Drink" is about what it means to be a serious critic of society, to tell the truth and refuse to say "the essential yes." Students soon to begin careers where they may have to compromise their values should find much to discuss. Significant Form, Style, or Artistic Conventions

FICHA Nacionalidad: Estados Unidos Chicago 1896 - Baltimore 1970 De origen portugués, ingresa en la universidad de Harvard. En sus años de juventud fue un gran viajero. Recorrió varios países e incluso paso una larga temporada en España para cursar la carrera de arquitectura. Pero es con el estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial cuando inicia su trayectoria literaria. Su primera novela fue "Manhattan Transfer". A ésta no tardaron en seguirle "Tres soldados", "El Paralelo 42" y "El gran dinero". A través de sus obras y mediante la alternancia de géneros realiza un examen de la sociedad de su tiempo. Analiza el fin del llamado "sueño americano" , convertido en un sistema injusto. A pesar de la línea ideológica que sigue en estos libros, Dos Pasos acabó apoyando las posturas más conservadoras. También es autor de "Aventuras de un joven", "Numero uno", "El gran destino" y "Orient Express", entre otras obras.

MENÚ PRINCIPAL BIOGRAFÍAS John Dos Passos ¡Ah las mentiras, las mentiras, las mentiras en que la vida es sofocada! Debemos arriar una vez la banderade la libertad, de la dignidad del hombre. Desesperadamente, cómicamente, implacablemente, debemos alzarnos y demostrar que, por lo menos, no estamos vencidos; que somos esclavos, pero no esclavos complacientes". Así exclama el héroe de la primera novela de John Dos Passos, " One Mán's Initiation ", y esta exclamación constituye, en cierto modo, el "leitmotiv" de toda su obra. Es la protesta de una conciencia democrática contra toda forma de opresión, la protesta del intelectual contra el fracaso del desenvolvimiento humano bajo el capitalismo industrial, la protesta del individuo contra una sociedad que, bajo cualquier forma política o económica, pretende reducirlo a cero. John Roderigo Dos Passos nació en Chicago el 14 de enero de 1896. Su abuelo fue un inmigrante portugués que se estableció como zapatero en Filadelfia. Su padre, que de muchacho fue tambor del ejército y actuó en el Potomac durante la Guerra Civil de los Estados Unidos, llegó a ser un distinguido abogado y autor de varios tratados sobre comercio industrial. A los cuarenta y siete años contrajo matrimonio con Lucy Addison, una dama del Sur, matrimonio del cual nació John Roderigo.

Own John Dos Passos Today! Bookstores By Style Antiquarian Children's Cinema and more Directory John Dos Passos One of Chicago's most famous novelists, John Dos Passos was born here in 1896. He attended Harvard University, graduating in 1916. Like several other well-known writers of his generation, he volunteered in World War I before the US entered the war. The next time the United States went to war, Dos Passos served as a war correspondent for Life Magazine in the Pacific and South America. The observation and writing skills he learned as a reporter came through in his fictional works; in fact, critics have sometimes even faulted him for being too objective. Critics count Dos Passos among America's greatest writers, but many note a decline in the artistic quality of his work over time. While Sinclair Lewis hailed "Manhattan Transfer" as one of the most important novels ever written, works from later in Dos Passos's life have been greeted with less enthusiasm. His most contentious work is the trilogy "USA," a novel of protest with a distinct tone that is difficult to pin down.

38. Viramontes Wins John Dos Passos Literature Prize Viramontes is awarded the john dos passos literature prize for 1995.By Jill Goetz. Helena María Viramontes, assistant professor http://www.news.cornell.edu/Chronicle/96/8.8.96/Viramontes-prize.html

Viramontes is awarded the John Dos Passos literature prize for 1995 By Jill Goetz The Moths and Other Stories , and the novel Under the Feet of Jesus. The Dos Passos prize has been granted annually since 1980 by faculty members in the Department of English, Philosophy and Modern Languages at Longwood College, a liberal arts college in Virginia, to American creative writers in the middle stages of their careers. The prize is named for the influential American author of U.S.A., a massive trilogy published in 1937 that has been called the most important social fiction in spired by the Great Depression. Previous recipients of the Dos Passos prize, which is funded by the Longwood Foundation and includes a cash award of $1,000 and a medal, have included Graham Greene and Tom Wolfe. Viramontes, originally from East Los Angeles, has written extensively on the ex periences of Chicano and Chicana farmworkers in this country. Her first novel, Under the Feet of Jesus ( Dutton, 1995), now available in paperback, was widely hailed for its sensitive portrayal of Estrella, a Mexican-American teen-ager learning about the possibilities of love and the restrictions of life as a migrant worker. "Blends lyricism, harsh realism and a concern for social justice...stunning," wrote one re viewer in Newsweek.

Special Collections Home Page General Information Services Collections ... Guides The Papers of John Dos Passos Online Guide to the Dos Passos Collection The Papers of John Dos Passos at the University of Virginia Library present a vivid chronicle of the author's activities, thoughts and literary skills as he analyzed, reported on and criticized the turbulent events of the 20th century. Dos Passos, identifying with the leftist radical sympathies of the post-World War I period, experimented in expressing these sentiments with innovative writing techniques in some of his most important and successful works: One Man's Initiation Three Soldiers A Pushcart at the Curb Manhattan Transfer (1925), the trilogy USA The 42nd Parallel Nineteen Nineteen, The Big Money, 1936), and The Head and Heart of Thomas Jefferson The collection is a consolidation of gift and other acquisitions received during the period 1958-1999 from John Dos Passos, his wife Elizabeth Holdridge Dos Passos, his daughter Lucy Dos Passos Coggin and from a number of friends and associates that include: Thomas Pym Cope, Mrs. Lloyd (Marion) Lowndes, Mrs. Harold Weston, Connie and William White, Edmund Berkeley, Jr., Charles W. Bernardin, Jack Diggens, Kenneth C. Duckett, Philip L. Gerber, Townsend Ludington and Ray Lewis White. The major portion of the papers is comprised of manuscript material (published and unpublished) of most of his novels, plays, poems, articles, speeches, lectures, readings and his reportage on history, politics, society and travel. Included are corrected and uncorrected typescripts, galley and page proofs, notes, outlines, related research material and an extensive assemblage of publisher and literary agent correspondence. Of particular interest are his diaries and notebooks filled with recorded observations, thoughts, verse and sketches that may have served as the basis for some of the character development and themes found in his published writings and in his works of art.
