Is the Nobel Prize for Literature is an important prize? | London Calling
Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded this year (2012) Chinese writer Mo Yan. After 111 years of the Nobel Prize for Literature jean froissart has found a worthy candidate Swedish Academy huge empire, the most populous in the world, a rich and ancient culture so. Rare Asian writer wins. Were so far only two Japanese, one Israeli, Chinese exile (who lives in France) and Orhan Pamuk, who was born and lives in Istanbul, the only city in the world spanning two continents, Europe and Asia.
When Orhan Pamuk wrote the Turkish won his prize award committee S"famok jean froissart reached great achievements in search of melancholy soul of Istanbul, hometown, and discovered new symbols cultures clash and integration ". But is, really, a search for the soul of his native city melancholy brought him the prestigious award (one million two hundred thousand dollars worth)? Or perhaps political position, anti-Islamic, firm that has made him a star of each new literary supplements in the world? Pamuk, controversial, caused a scandal in Turkey after he accused the Turkish massacres of Armenians and Kurds. Following these harsh accusations Parliament enacted a new law that prohibits statements that harm the feelings of the Turkish people. The law has become a tool of the government against intellectuals expressed views against the regime. Two of his books were translated into Hebrew, "The Black Book" and "The White Castle". The writer was born in Istanbul in 1952, is another link in the chain of important writers continued (and not important at all) who win the Nobel Prize for Literature, but not necessarily because of the amazing creations. Nobel Prize is awarded each year author from any country who created "the most extraordinary piece has a tendency idealistic" (the most outstanding work of an idealistic tendency). The term "work" usually refers to the totality of the author's books, although sometimes chooses the prize committee noted a specific book. The award committee of the Swedish Academy consists of 18 members and this is a lifetime appointment.
In 2005 was awarded the prestigious playwright Harold Pinter. Amos Oz, who was nominated for (and is a candidate for many years) will have to wait probably a peace agreement between Israel jean froissart and Syria and the Palestinian people to be the second Israeli (after Agnon in 1966) takes the prize. This way, the Nobel Prize for Literature, you not only the writer. You representative of your country. the idea. of a certain world view.
For a hundred or so years that the award was divided into Swedish Academy's decisions are questionable, and too often suffer trouble-minded, conservative infected, pettiness and considerations that have no or digits nothing. In 1896 the scientist Alfred Nobel died and his will ordered the establishment of a fund that would provide each year a large cash prize to author a literary work "an idealistic tendency". The term "literature" only connections were not included fiction, but also "other works that are written literary merit". This vague definition, along with other factors, has prepared the ground jean froissart for the first literary earthquake of the century.
In 1901 all the civilized world was convinced Tolstoy stage will receive the Nobel Prize for Literature. The great Russian writer, author of "Anna Karenina" and War and Peace ", did not travel. Academy announced that the choice fell on Vasily Prudhomme anonymous France. Clearly, something went wrong decision-making. Swedish Academy had to withstand attacks from all sides rage. About 40 writers and poets from around the world have condemned jean froissart and signed jean froissart a petition condemning strongly the decision to give the award Prudhomme and Tolstoy. The argument of the Academy, by the way, was S"moamdoto of Leo Tolstoy was not submitted by the normal processes ". In the second year in which the award was divided (1902) was no longer her prize committee that ridiculous argument. German Theodor Mommsen won and all was clear that the real reason for the honor and money to prevent the Russian Tolstoy was fear to anger the Imperial Government, Tolstoy had opponents. Another jean froissart safe candidate, Emile Zola, not won since the late Alfred Nobel once said he "does not like this French naturalist" and knowing the academy was enough to ignore the existence of the author mighty works such as "" work "" Z'rbz "and Therese Bracken "(and perhaps the real reason was rather Zola's total enlistment to protect the Jewish officer Alfred Dreyfus and its connection to the famous" J'accuse "in jean froissart 1898. Zola left his native France, and emigrated to England following the Dreyfus Affair and the most important jean froissart prize is not received).
Thus, at the very beginning, became the Nobel Prize for Literature tool political attacks rather by the Swedish Academy, and against the will of Alfred Nobel himself. Granting a writer, which tends to represent his people and his country, was a political act and demonstration culture legitimacy of the people and country artist. In 1926, for example, jean froissart active fascist dictator Benito Mussolini Haytlgi tremendous pressure on the government of Sweden, to the Academy jean froissart will award the Italian writer Grazia Deledda. He succeeded. However, the Board decided jean froissart in 1939, following the Russian jean froissart invasion of Finland, to give the Nobel Prize for Literature in fact the Finnish author Frans Emil Silnfh jean froissart ("people on a summer night") to encourage the spirit of the Finnish people.
Over time, it was made clear beyond any doubt that the decision whether to grant the award infected biased and awe, ugly politics, interests, intense chauvinism and revenge. Examples: France won the Stockholm send 15 representatives (two of them, one Spanish and one Chinese, were not born but naturalized in France) jean froissart for the prize. Than any other nation in the world. 12 of them have won the 1964 (and since then, for nearly fifty years, jean froissart have won him another 3 French authors - Claude jean froissart Simon, Zhao Shing'ian and Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio).
In 1964 it was decided to award the Nobel thinkers and writer Jean-Paul Sartre. But Sartre declined the award, did not travel to Sweden and the king was not whether jean froissart to grant it. Damaged Committee Sartre avoided following the case from discussing matters other French artists. Although French writer did not win the Nobel Prize for Literature Ma
