Arnold Bennett was a successful English playwright, novelist and journalist. http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Biographies/Literary/Bennett.htm

[Back To Fiction Writers] Arnold Bennett Arnold Bennett was a successful English playwright, novelist and journalist. Being influenced by the French novelist, Émile Zola (1840-1902), like his friends, H. G. Wells and John Galsworthy , Bennett was styled as a "naturalistic novelist" (persons are creatures of their own environment). These writers were attacked by the "modernists," like Virginia Woolf . In 1903, Bennett moved to Paris (married a Frenchwoman) and lived there for some years. I have put up, here at www.blupete.com, two short pieces which Bennett wrote: " Artists and Critics " and " Unclean Books [UP] [THE FICTION WRITERS] [BIOGRAPHIES JUMP PAGE] ... [HOME] November, 1997.

Arnold Bennett by Frank Swinnerton Arnold Bennett IF taking a map of England, you were to look at the very centre of it, you would find your eyes resting upon some part of the county of Staffordshire. And if this physical fact should lead you to imagine that the natives of Staffordshire ought to be more typically and peculiarly English than the natives of any other district in the British Isles, you would be warmly supported by Staffordshire men everywhere. It has been their belief, in fact, for centuries past, that they have more English common sense than all the rest of the population put together. But as the eighteenth century ended Staffordshire began to move towards its later prosperity. Its water-logged mines were pumped and good coal was obtained. Iron was worked. And Josiah Wedgwood developed what had been a small village industry into a great craft and the most celebrated source of the county's immense wealth. Johnson was the most stupendous of all the sons of Staffordshire. As, however, for more than fifty years, he lived and worked and triumphantly browbeat his conversational opponents in London, he is often taken for a true-born Cockney; and therefore Staffordshire has had as little general credit for him as for another classic English writer, Izaak Walton, who was born in Stafford itself. Only the work and fame of the original Josiah Wedgwood, and the anonymous work of other fine craftsmen, have saved the county from apparent bankruptcy in the arts. It produced pottery, coal, and iron; but in every other respect remained entirely undistinguished.

A wonderful and delightful way of spending time. I think this sort of activity does stimulate creative ideas. There can be no knowledge without emotion. We may be aware of a truth, yet until we have felt its force, it is not ours. To the cognition of the brain must be added the experience of the soul. To the artist is sometimes granted a sudden, transient insight which serves in this matter for experience. A flash, and where previously the brain held a dead fact, the soul grasps a living truth! At moments we are all artists. It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is from the top. The price of justice is eternal publicity.

Arnold Bennett - Son of Stoke-on-Trent Bennett, (Enoch) Arnold English novelist, playwright, and essayist, born in Hanley (27th May 1867), Stoke-on-Trent , Staffordshire (Hanley was the real-life model for one of the "Five Towns" of his novels). Bennett was educated at the University of London and for a time was editor of Woman magazine. After 1900 he devoted himself entirely to writing; dramatic criticism was one of his foremost interests. Bennett is best known, however, for his novels, several of which were written during his residence in France. Bennett's infancy was spent in genteel poverty, which gave way to prosperity as his father succeeded as a solicitor. From this provincial background he became a novelist. His enduring fame is as a Chronicler of the Potteries towns, the setting and inspiration of some of his most famous and enduring literary work and the place where he grew up. Many of the locations in Clayhanger and other Bennett novels are based in "The five towns" and correspond to actual locations in and around the Potteries district of North Staffordshire click here to see a list of some of the locations.
