24. John Steinbeck - Biography john steinbeck (19021968), born in Salinas, California, came from a family of moderate means. http://www.nobel.se/literature/laureates/1962/steinbeck-bio.html

John Steinbeck (1902-1968), born in Salinas, California, came from a family of moderate means. He worked his way through college at Stanford University but never graduated. In 1925 he went to New York, where he tried for a few years to establish himself as a free-lance writer, but he failed and returned to California. After publishing some novels and short stories, Steinbeck first became widely known with Tortilla Flat (1935), a series of humorous stories about Monterey paisanos. Steinbeck's novels can all be classified as social novels dealing with the economic problems of rural labour, but there is also a streak of worship of the soil in his books, which does not always agree with his matter-of-fact sociological approach. After the rough and earthy humour of Tortilla Flat, he moved on to more serious fiction, often aggressive in its social criticism, to In Dubious Battle (1936), which deals with the strikes of the migratory fruit pickers on California plantations. This was followed by Of Mice and Men (1937), the story of the imbecile giant Lennie, and a series of admirable short stories collected in the volume

Steinbeck received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1962. He is best remembered for THE GRAPES OF WRATH (1939), a novel widely considered to be a 20th-century classic. The impact of the book has been compared to that of Harriet Beecher Stowe 's Uncle Tom's Cabin . The epic about the migration of the Joad family, driven from its bit of land in Oklahoma to California, arose a wide debate about the hard lot of migrant laborers, and helped to put an agricultural reform into effect. "Man, unlike any other thing organic or inorganic in the universe, grows beyond his work, walks up in the stairs of his concepts, emerges ahead of his accomplishments ." (from The Grapes of Wrath John Steinbeck was born in Salinas, California. His native region of Monterey Bay was later the setting for most of his fiction. Steinbeck's father was a county treasurer and mother a teacher. He attended the local high school and studied marine biology at Stanford University between 1920 and 1926, but did not take a degree. During these early years several of his poems and short stories appeared in university publications. After working for a short time as a laborer and reporter in New York City for the American , Steinbeck returned to California.

Sundets TruckStop presenterer: Forfatteren: John Steinbeck John Steinbeck er en av forfatterne jeg lærte om på skolen - og derfor synes var dødskjedelig. Mange år seinere gjenoppdaga jeg ham, på den lille grensekafeen i Gyvelde, på kystveien mellom Belgia og Frankrike. Vi skulle til Boulogne Sur Meer med laks, fortolla som vanlig på Gyvelde, og spiste middag mens vi venta. Og snakka om bøker. Knut'en fra Bergen slo et slag for Steinbeck. "Ingen kan skrive som han" - sa Knut. Jeg gikk på Biblioteket og lånte "Mann og mus" da jeg kom hjem. Enormt dyktig skrevet. Deretter lånte jeg "Vredens druer", og var solgt. Dette kan du lese mer om i The highway is alive tonight "Så denne lange pinsedagen leser jeg om Tom Joad - om søstera Saronsrose, om mor og onkel John, om predikanten Jim Casy som blir slått i hjel når han ikke lenger vil prate om himmelen, men kjempe for bedre forhold for fattigfolk på jorda. Jeg leser om småbrukerfamilen som emigrerte til California under den store depresjonen. Og Steinbeck tar meg med i lastebilen til familen Joad langs route 66 så jeg føler dumpene i veien på den lange turen mot California. Gjennom støvet og fattigdommen, gjennom den kyniske volden fra jordeiera og gjennom samholdet i regjeringscampen. De blir utskjelt som Okies, fra Oklahoma. Steinbeck skjærer med uhyggelig klarhet inn i folks hjerter og hjerner, han veit hva det er å jobbe, og han kan å skrive."

He studied firsthand the struggles of the migrant workers; he celebrates their labor in ritualistic terms and shows the downtrodden overcoming their many adversities through courage and dignity, and through their compassion for fellow sufferers.

Steinbeck did not graduate from Stanford, but instead chose to support himself through manual labor while writing. His experiences among the working classes in California lent authenticity to his depiction of the lives of the workers who are the central characters of his most important novels. Steinbeck spent much of his life in Monterey County, which later was the setting of some of his fiction. Steinbeck's later writings were comparatively slight works of entertainment and journalism, but he did make conscientious attempts to reassert his stature as a major novelist: Burning Bright (1950), East of Eden (1952), and The Winter of Our Discontent (1961). None of these works equaled the critical reputation of his earlier novels. Steinbeck's reputation depends mostly on the naturalistic novels with proletarian themes he wrote during the Depression. It is in these works that Steinbeck is not effective in his building of rich symbolic structures and his attempts at conveying the archetypal qualities of his characters. Steinbeck received the Nobel Prize for literature in 1962, and died in New York City in 1968. East of Eden The Grapes of Wrath Of Mice and Men The Pearl ... Earn Money as an Affiliate!
