Extractions: O'Neill, Eugene Gladstone (1888-1953), American dramatist, Nobel laureate, winner of four Pulitzer Prizes, who attempted to define fundamental human problems in his works. He is considered by many to be the most important writer in the American theater. O'Neill was born in New York City, the son of the Irish-American actor James O'Neill. He accompanied his father on theatrical tours during his youth, attended Princeton University from 1906 to 1907, and worked subsequently as a clerk in New York City. From 1909 to 1912 O'Neill prospected for gold in Honduras, served as assistant manager of a theatrical troupe organized by his father, went to South America and South Africa as a seaman, toured as an actor with his father's troupe, and worked as a newspaper reporter in New London, Connecticut. After contracting a mild case of tuberculosis in 1912, he went to a sanatorium, where he wrote his first plays. After leaving the sanatorium, O'Neill studied the techniques of playwriting at Harvard University from 1914 to 1915 under the famous theater scholar George Pierce Baker.

Extractions: Eugene O'Neill - What Went Wrong? April 22, 2000 Eugene O'Neill is perhaps the most well-known American playwright. He was awarded Pulitzer Prizes in 1920, 1922, 1928 and 1957 and a Nobel Prize for literature in 1936. Yet for all of his writing success, O'Neill led a life filled with tragedy and he was afflicted with a misdiagnosed neurological disorder that contributed to his death. Now, almost 47 years after O'Neill's death and with the permission of O'Neill's surviving grandchildren, the autopsy results of this amazing writer have been released. These results, published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM, April 13, 2000), shed new light on O'Neill's health. Eugene Gladstone O'Neill was born in New York City on October 16, 1888. He had a reputation for heavy alcohol drinking, and he attempted suicide in 1912. In addition to surviving battles with malaria and tuberculosis, O'Neill struggled with bouts of depression, some of which required a stay in the hospital. Many biographers believe that depression also affected O'Neill's mother, father, brother and two sons. Two of O'Neill's sons, Eugene Jr. and Shane, committed suicide. According to the new NEJM report, O'Neill noticed slight shaking (tremor) of his hands when he was a freshman at Princeton University in 1906. These tremors became worse over the years and in 1941 he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Extractions: O'Neill, Eugene Gladstone Born October 6th, 1888, in New York City. Son of James O'Neill, the popular romantic actor. First seven years of my life spent mostly in hotels and railroad trains, my mother accompanying my father on his tours of the United States, although she never was an actress, disliked the theatre, and held aloof from its people. Began to write plays in the Fall of 1913. Wrote the one-act Bound East for Cardiff in the Spring of 1914. This is the only one of the plays written in this period which has any merit. In the Fall of 1914, I entered Harvard University to attend the course in dramatic technique given by Professor George Baker. I left after one year and did not complete the course. The Fall of 1916 marked the first production of a play of mine in New York - Bound East for Cardiff - which was on the opening bill of he Provincetown Players. In the next few years this theatre put on nearly all of my short plays, but it was not until 1920 that a long play Beyond the Horizon was produced in New York. It was given on Broadway by a commercial managemeet - but, at first, only as a special matinee attraction with four afternoon performances a week. However, some of the critics praised the play and it was soon given a theatre for a regular run, and later on in the year was awarded the Pulitzer Prize. I received this prize again in 1922 for Anna Christie and for the third time in 1928 for Strange Interlude.

Extractions: O'Neill, Eugene Gladstone Auteur dramatique américain (New York, 1888 - Boston, 1953). L'uvre immense d'O'Neill quelque quarante pièces s'inscrit par ses thèmes fondamentaux, désir et frustration, dans ce courant puritain qui oriente souterrainement l'histoire des lettres américaines. En même temps, elle apparaît comme un vaste effort de renouvellement des moyens d'expression théâtraux, accompli par un écrivain puissant qui demeure le plus grand auteur dramatique américain du XXe siècle. Dès son enfance, Eugene Gladstone O'Neill mène une vie vagabonde : après avoir accompagné dans ses tournées son père, acteur réputé, puis interrompu de peu brillantes études, il devient tour à tour employé de bureau, chercheur d'or au Honduras, marin et enfin reporter. C'est au cours d'un séjour dans un sanatorium qu'il décide d'écrire pour le théâtre. Une troupe d'avant-garde, les Provincetown Players, monte ses premières pièces (En mer vers Cardiff, 1916). Ces uvres, très neuves par rapport à celles de ses prédécesseurs, influencées par un romantisme attardé, se caractérisent par le réalisme des sujets qu'O'Neill a tirés de ses propres expériences de matelot et aussi par la grande véracité du langage et les recherches de la mise en scène. Par -delà l'horizon (1920) consacre l'auteur (prix Pulitzer). Paraissent ensuite Anna Christie (1922), l'Empereur Jones (1921), tragédie dans laquelle il s'efforçe d'adapter au théâtre le monologue intérieur des romanciers. Son art se fait alors plus symbolique. C'est le cas de ses deux chefs-d'uvre, Désir sous les ormes (1924) et le Deuil sied à Electre (1931), qui reflètent un univers étouffant où, le plus souvent, O'Neill dénonce l'absurdité de la condition de l'homme qui le condamne inéluctablement à la violence et l'asservit à l'illusion (la Venue de l'homme des glaces, 1946), dans une société sans espoir (le Singe velu, 1922).

Extractions: It is an extraordinary privilege because the significance and true worth of the Nobel Prizes are fully recognized in all advanced parts of the world. The Prizes are justly held in honor and esteem, for it is well known that they are awarded without prejudice of any kind by the several committees whose members generously devote much time and thought to the task in their charge. In addition to being a stimulus to endeavour and a high recognition of achievement, the Prizes are valuable in another respect. Owing to the complete absence of partiality in the awarding of them, they induce people of all countries to think in terms of the world and mankind, heedless of classifications or boundaries of any character. The good influence of such conspicuous recognition of a particular achievement thus spreads far beyond its special purpose. Mr. O'Neill has been prevented from being here today principally because the state of his health, damaged by overwork, has forced him to follow his doctor's orders to live absolutely quietly for several months. It is his hope, and I follow his own words in a letter to me, that all those connected with the festival will accept in good faith his statement of the impossibility of his attending, and not put it down to arbitrary temperament, or anything of the sort.

Whatever the reason, the intensely personal issues of his plays made them very powerful. BIRTH AND UPBRINGING On October 16, 1888, Eugene Gladstone O’Neill was born in a hotel room to a successful touring actor, James O’Neill and Ella (Ellan) Quinlan O’Neill. Eugene had to spend his childhood in hotel rooms, trains and on backstage with his mother and elder brother, James Jr He had no permanent ‘home’, except for a small cottage overlooking the Thames River in New London, Connecticut. But there too they were not too welcome as they were "Summer People" and "Theatrical People" and above all, his mother was a known drug addict. Eugene’s childhood memories were not at all pleasant. They brought back dirty dressing rooms, stuffy trains, shoddy hotels; perpetual waiting in the wings and succession of one-night stands. Academy in Stamford, Connecticut. It was a typical New England preparatory school, training students to get into Ivy League Colleges. Eugene got into the spirit of things, became quite studious and graduated scoring sufficiently well to be admitted into the Princeton University.

Completed in 1940, Long Day's Journey Into the Night is an autobiographical play Eugene O'Neill wrote thatbecause of the highly personal writing about his familywas not to be released until 25 years after his death, which occurred in 1953. But since O'Neill's immediate family had died in the early 1920s, his wife allowed publication of the play in 1956. Besides the history alone, the play is fascinating in its own right. It tells of the "Tyrones"a fictional name for what is clearly the O'Neills. Theirs is not a happy tale: The youngest son (Edmond) is sent to a sanitarium to recover from tuberculosis; he despises his father for sending him; his mother is wrecked by narcotics; and his older brother by drink.

Extractions: E ugene Gladstone O'Neill was the son of James O'Neill, an Irish-born actor of considerable reputation on the later nineteenth-century American stage, and Ella Quinlan O'Neill, who hailed from a middle-class Irish Catholic family. Ella, born Mary Ellen, was raised in Cleveland and educated at the convent of St. Mary in Indiana, where she enrolled at age fifteen. About that time, she met the handsome James O'Neill, who in 1872 at age twenty-six, was the leading actor at Cleveland's most distinguished theater. Four years later, they met again in New York, when Ella saw O'Neill in a play and, drawing upon their former acquaintance, asked to meet him backstage. They were married the following year, initiating a spiral of events that led both to familyl tragedies and the formation of America's only Nobel-Prize winning dramatist. Eugene O'Neill was born in a Broadway Hotel on October 16, 1888. His brother James Jr. (Jamie) was born eight years earlier, and his second brother Edmund was born in 1883, only to die from measles a year and one-half later, creating in his mother a profound sorrow and sense of guilt that plagued her the rest of her life. Overwhelmed by feelings of guilt for leaving the infant in a nanny's care and anger at husband for inducing her to accompany him on a brief tour, and suspicious that Jamiejealous of the attention his baby brother was receivinghad intentionally exposed the baby to measles, Ella declined physically and emotionally. Much of this history surfaces in what many regard as O'Neill's greatest play, the highly autobiographical
