Harry Martinson It was from these travels and years of work in environments of all kinds that he later drew material and inspiration for his literary efforts - a couple of books of prose with glimpses, views and memories of the world of coal-heated ships during the 1920s. These accounts were followed a few years later by one or two books with an autobiographical strain and fictional recollections of a boarded-out child's existence, especially the child's own way of perceiving and trying to understand life and the people in it. Side by side with this psychological cognition of the childhood land of memory, there appeared some collections of poetry which were continued by degrees in a series of nature studies in prose, in which words and observation are combined in what the author has called "thinking out in the meadow". In a later work, the novel , the description of the human side is devoted entirely to the relationship between the settled and the itinerant man within ourselves. A world of journeying in a still wider sense emerges in Aniara , an epic work about an imagined space flight with a perspective in depth towards our own time. In it, jostling for room in our consciousness, are our fears and our questions as to where we are heading, together with the planet that our generation is treating as it does.

Svenska A summary in English follows below För mer information om Harry Martinson, ber vi att få hänvisa till Harry Martinson-Sällskapets hemsida. Akademiledamoten och nobelpristagaren Harry Edmund Martinson föddes i Nyteboda, Jämshögs socken, Blekinge, den 6 maj 1904. Han föddes som nummer 5 och enda son i en barnaskara på 7. Föräldrarna var handlanden och sjömannen Martin Olofsson och hans hustru Bengta Svensdotter (oftast kallad Betty) båda med rötter i gränstrakterna Blekinge-Skåne. På grund av makens död 1910 och svårigheter med att ta hand om den stora barnaskaran emigrerade Betty till USA, där hon stannade livet ut. Barnen togs om hand av socknen och placerades i olika fosterhem. Pojken Harry fick byta hem åtskilliga gånger. De ofta mycket svåra åren som sockenbarn har Harry Martinson skildrat i romanerna Nässlorna blomma (1935) och Vägen ut (1936). Han försökte ofta att rymma från sina hem; fly från sin sockenbarnstillvaro ut mot det stora havet, som skulle föra honom till den saknade modern. Martinson skrev in sig vid Skeppsgossekåren i Karlskrona, men rymde snart därifrån. Han begav sig ut "på luffen" och försörjde sig som betplockare, torvarbetare och diversearbetare. Målet var att ta hyra på någon båt för att förverkliga barndomsdrömmen om att gå till sjöss.

Harry Martinson The Nobel Prize for Literature was awarded to Swedish Fiction writers Harry Martinson and Eyvind Johnson in 1974 The Writings of Harry Martinson Harry Martinson (1904 - 1978) was born at Jämshög in 1904. He was left an orphan at an early age, and after a checkered childhood, in which the children's homes and institutions were as numerous as the escapes, he went to sea at the age of sixteen, spending six years of his life on board various ships and as a workman in foreign countries. It was from these travels and years of work in environments of all kinds that he later drew material and inspiration for his literary efforts - a couple of books of prose with glimpses, views and memories of the world of coal-heated ships during the 1920s. These accounts were followed a few years later by one or two books with an autobiographical strain and fictional recollections of a boarded-out child's existence, especially the child's own way of perceiving and trying to understand life and the people in it.

Harry Martinsons barndom i fattiga omständigheter hindrade inte att han blev en av Sveriges absolut främsta författare. I "Nässlorna blomma" har han skapat en märklig barndomsskildring med utgångspunkt från sina erfarenheter som "sockenbarn". Det var barn som togs om hand av den som krävde minst betalning av den tidens socialomsorg, fattigvården. Ljuset i Martinsons barndom var skolan och där skolläraren Staf, som såg pojkens begåvning och uppmuntrade honom. Martinson gav sig ut på sjön, erfarenheter som bland annat gav inspiration till "Kap Farväl" en märklig bok med stark poetisk känsla i prosan. Harry Martinson passade inte på sjön och levde på land ett vagabonderande liv, som gett avtryck genom "Vägen till Klockrike" om luffarnas liv. Men existensiella frågor är hela tiden närvarande i hans beskrivningar.

Martinson was the first woman writer among the worker-novelists, who rose from the miserable existence of day-laborers at the great central Swedish estates. The first half of her life was filled with poverty and misery, but her memoirs were also filled with warmth and humour. Martinson has been called a "female Maxim Gorky." "Martinson described the everyday life of proletarian women in Sweden. Her women are strong because of their co-operation and moral support but also because of their ability to enjoy aesthetics and the beauty of their surroundings, Their feeling of self-worth is often expressed symbolically in a scrap of luxury they cling to."
