AUTHORS ON THE WEB A Collection of Biographical Sketches This page is an attempt to bring together literary author biographies available on the World Wide Web. The biographies vary in quality, timeliness, length, and authority. If you don't find a biography here and know of one, please send it along. If there is no biography available, write one and send it along. It will take time for this page to become one of substance. And, in keeping with the beauty of the medium, it will continually grow and change. Credit for this page must go to Dr. Gretchen Whitney at The University of Tennessee where I was a graduate student in the School of Information Science . Dr. Whitney's "dead German" assignment gave me inspiration for this page. She also taught me HTML. She may have created a monster. Last revised: August 17, 2002. As a new dimension to this page, I am attempting to locate biographies on Nobel Prize winners in Literature. Those I include will include a notation, (Nobel, year).

Literary Awards The Nobel Prize for Literature Founded in 1900, the Nobel Foundation was created through the will of Alfred Nobel, a Swedish engineer who invented dynamite and held over 350 patents. Nobel also write poetry and drama and seriously considered a career as a writer. The Foundation presents annual awards in the fields of Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Economics, Peace, and Literature. Unlike most literary awards, the Nobel Prize is not associated with a specific work or book. Rather, in accordance with Nobel's will, the Prize for Literature is given to the person who "shall have produced in the field of literature the most outstanding work of an idealistic tendency." The official website of the Nobel Foundation is http://www.nobel.se/ 2001 Winner V.S. Naipaul Great Britian "for having united perceptive narrative and incorruptible scrutiny in works that compel us to see the presence of suppressed histories" - The Swedish Academy 2000 Winner Gao Xingjian China "for an ouevre of universal validity, bitter insights and linguistic ingenuity, which has opened new paths for the Chinese novel and drama." -

Follow the Discussion Guide An RJ Website Added Value Significant Jewish Books By Steven Schnur With this issue we inaugurate our Significant Jewish Books column, inspired by UAHC President Rabbi Eric H. Yoffie's Reform Movement Literacy Initiative , which challenges all Reform Jews to read at least four Jewish books a year. In each issue we will recommend two titles representing the best of Jewish literature, both fiction and nonfiction, selected in cooperation with the UAHC Department of Adult Jewish Growth. It is our hope that you will read at least one of these selections on your own or with others in a study or book group. Connect with thousands of other Significant Jewish Books readers by accessing the Adult Jewish Growth website , where you'll find a discussion guide and more A Book That Was Lost and Other Stories S. Y. Agnon (Schocken, $15.00 paper, 436 pp.) On receiving the Nobel Prize for literature in 1966, Shmuel Yosef Agnon remarked that journeying to Stockholm to receive the award would provide him particular pleasure "because there is a special benediction one says before a king and I have never met a king before." In Berlin, Agnon studied with Franz Rosenzweig, collaborated with Martin Buber on a collection of chasidic stories, befriended Gershom Scholem, and associated with the poet Hayim Nahman Bialik and the Zionist theorist Ahad Ha'am, as well as his future publisher Salman Schocken. Following a devastating fire in 1924 that destroyed his home along with his extensive library and several unpublished manuscripts, he returned to Israel, settling in a suburb of Jerusalem, where he resumed the Orthodox observance he had abandoned on first arriving in Palestine and formally adopted Agnon as his family name. For the next forty-five years, until his death in 1970, he produced more than two hundred stories as well as several novels and novellas, including The Bridal Canopy, A Guest for the Night, and In the Heart of the Seas. He also edited several anthologies, including Days of Awe, a collection of High Holy Day traditions. Much of his work has yet to be translated into English.
