Extractions: indietro e-mail LE SCRITTRICI DEL NOBEL PEARL BUCK Una donna scomoda Pearl Sidenstricker (questo il suo cognome originario) nacque a Hillsboro, nel West Virginia, U.S.A., il 26 giugno 1882. Era la sesta figlia di una coppia di missionari. Quand'era ancora bambina, i suoi genitori si trasferirono in Cina, a Chin-kiang, sulle rive dello Yang Tze. Qui per i disagi e per il clima malsano i fratelli morirono: ne sopravvisse solo uno, che ritornò a studiare in America. Pearl fu affidata a una governante cinese che le insegnò la lingua e la storia della Cina, insieme all'amore e alla comprensione di questo paese. Fino a diciassette anni studiò nelle scuole di Shangai. Quindi si recò in Inghilterra ed infine negli Stati Uniti, dove completò gli studi al Randholp Macon Verman's College di Lynehburg in Virgiania. Ritornata in Cina, nel 1917 sposò il missionario John Buck, da cui ebbe una figlia. Insegnò letteratura inglese all'università di Nanchino. I suoi esordi letterari risalgono al 1922, quando pubblicò alcune novelle, quasi per caso, in riviste inglesi di Shangai e in altre americane. Ben presto "atlantic Monthly", una delle maggiori riviste d'America, accolse la collaborazione della scrittrice, fin allora sconosciuta. Il primo romanzo di Pearl Buck si può considerare Vento dell'est; vento dell'ovest: scritto nel 1926, non vide la luce, ricevuto e corretto, che quattro anni dopo. Nel 1931 la scrittrice salì di colpo a fama mondiale con la buona terra, che ottenne il premio Pulitzer.

Extractions: "for her rich and truly epic descriptions of peasant life in China and for her biographical masterpieces" -The Nobel Foundation prize presentation Pearl Sydenstricker was raised in Chenchiang in eastern China by her Presbyterian missionary parents. Initially educated by her mother and a Chinese tutor, she was sent at 15 to a boarding school in Shanghai. Two years later she entered Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, Virginia, graduating in 1914 and remaining for a semester as an instructor in psychology. In May 1917 she married missionary John L. Buck; although later divorced and remarried, she retained the name Buck professionally. She returned to China and taught English literature in Chinese universities in 1925-30. During that time she briefly resumed studying in the United States at Cornell University, where she took her M.A. in 1926. She began contributing articles on Chinese life to American magazines in 1922. Buck's first published novel, East Wind, West Wind (1930), was written aboard a ship headed for America. The Good Earth (1931), a poignant tale of a Chinese peasant and his slave-wife and their struggle upward, was a best-seller. The book, which won a Pulitzer Prize (1932), established Buck as an interpreter of the East to the West and was adapted for stage and screen. The Good Earth, widely translated, was followed by Sons (1932) and A House Divided (1935); the trilogy was published as The House of Earth (1935). Buck was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1938. From 1935 Buck lived in the United States. After World War II, in a move to aid illegitimate children of U.S. servicemen in Asian countries, she instituted the Pearl S. Buck Foundation (in 1967 she turned over to the foundation most of her earningsmore than $7,000,000).

Extractions: American Writer/Nobel Laureate December 12, 1938 at at Stockholm Concert Hall, Stockholm, Sweden When I came to consider what I should say today it seemed that it would be wrong not to speak of China. And this is none the less true because I am an American by birth and by ancestry and though I live now in my own country and shall live there, since there I belong. But it is the Chinese and not the American novel which has shaped my own efforts in writing. My earliest knowledge of story, of how to tell and write stories, came to me in China. It would be ingratitude on my part not to recognize this today. And yet it would be presumptuous to speak before you on the subject of the Chinese novel for a reason wholly personal. There is another reason why I feel that I may properly do so. It is that I believe the Chinese novel has an illumination for the Western novel and for the Western novelist. The novel in China was never an art and was never so considered, nor did any Chinese novelist think of himself as an artist. The Chinese novel its history, its scope, its place in the life of the people, so vital a place, must be viewed in the strong light of this one fact. It is a fact no doubt strange to you, a company of modern Western scholars who today so generously recognize the novel.

Extractions: Pearl S. Buck lived much of her life in China. Her father, Absalom Sydenstricker, was a Presbyterian missionary stationed in the small town of Chinkiang, outside Nanking. Pearl was born in America in 1892 during her parents' home leave, but moved back to China at the age of three months. She was raised by a Chinese amah who told her popular tales and myths, and she could speak and write both English and Chinese by the age of four. She also played freely with the village children, and in this way learned much about Chinese life through experience. In 1900, when Pearl was eight years old, the Boxer Rebellion threw the Sydenstrickers' life into turmoil. Chinese nationalists turned on Westerners, and for a while the family feared for their lives. Absalom sent Pearl, her mother, and her baby sister to Shanghai, which was relatively safe for Westerners, but in 1901 the family returned to America. However, they were soon back in China again, regardless of danger. In 1909, Pearl enrolled in Miss Jewell's School in Shanghai, a school that had formerly been a place for privileged Western girls to be educated but had lost much of its prestige in the previous years. While studying there, Pearl also volunteered at The Golden Door, a shelter for Chinese slave girls and prostitutes. Her experience here would mold her as a writer and as a person; throughout her years in China, Pearl would continue to pay particular attention to the plight of oppressed and poor Chinese women and girls.

Extractions: En 1938 obtuvo el Premio Nobel de Literatura. Pearl murió en marzo de 1973, dos meses después de cumplir los 81 años. Su tumba está ubicada en Green HillsFarm. OBRAS: Escribió más de 85 libros, muchos de los cuales son novelas que ofrecen un amable retrato de China y sus gentes. De su estancia en el emprobecido pueblo de Nanhsuchou, Pearl sacó la semilla que la llevaría a escribir The Good Earth y otras historias de China. Su producción literaria abarca géneros tan dispares como el relato, el teatro, el guión cinematográfico, la poesía, la literatura infantil, la biografía y hasta un libro de cocina. Su estilo sencillo y directo, y su preocupación por los valores fundamentales de la vida humana, tienen su origen en el estudio de la novela china. En 1920 comenzó a publicar sus historias y ensayos en revistas como Nation, The Chinese Recorder, Asia y Atlantic Monthly. Su primera novela, Viento del este, viento del oeste fue publicada por la compañia John Day en 1930. El ejecutivo de esta compañía, Richard Walsh se convertiría en el segundo esposo de Pearl en 1935, después de que ambos se divorciaran. En 1931 la misma compañía publicó
