Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Sir Kingsley Amis (1922-1995) Novelist, poet, critic, and teacher, father of the writer Martin Amis, generally grouped among the "angry young men" in the 1950s with such writers as John Osborne, John Braine, John Wain, Arnold Wesker, and Alan Sillitoe However, Amis himself denied the affiliation. A radical in his young adulthood, Amis was later know for his conservative critique of contemporary life and manners. He once said, that if you can't annoy somebody, there is little point in writing. "'You'll find that marriage is a good short cut to the truth. No, not quite that. A way of doubling back to the truth. Another thing you'll find is that the years of illusion aren't those of adolescense, as the grown-ups try to tell us; they're the ones immediately after it, say the middle twenties, the false maturity if you like, when you first get thoroughly embroiled in things and lose your head. Your age, by the way, Jim. That's when you first realize that sex is important to other people besides yourself. A discovery like that can't help knocking you off balance for a time.'" (from Lucky Jim Kingsley Amis was born in London as the only son of a business clerk. He was educated at the City of London School and St. John's College, Oxford. There he joined the Communist Party, edited the Oxford Labour Club

A prodigious output was achieved by an unflinching schedule of 500 words each day. His public perception developed from angry young man in the 50s to reactionary old fogey in the 80s; he, and a critical minority, took issue with both stereotypes. He received the Booker Prize (The Old Devils) in 1986, plus a CBE and knighthood for services to literature.

Die Rettung der Hoden Der 1922 geborene Gelehrte und Schriftsteller Kingsley Amis erschien 1954 mit seinem Roman "Lucky Jim" als "angry young man" auf der literarisch-gesellschaftlichen Bühne und endete als nationale Institution, als er 1990 zum Ritter geschlagen wurde. Dazwischen tat er einiges für die Science Fiction. So schrieb er 1960 die einflußreiche, wenn auch einseitige Literaturgeschichte "New Maps of Hell", in dem er die dystopische Seite der Science Fiction hervorhob, die bis dato nur als technikverliebt wahrgenommen worden war. Zu seinen wichtigsten Romanen gehört "The Alteration" (1976). Das Buch errang 1977 den John W. Campbell Memorial Award für den besten SF-Roman des Jahres. Handlung Man schreibt das Jahr 1976 - aber in einer Welt, wie sie durchaus existieren könnte, jedoch nicht die geschichtlich bekannte Wirklichkeit geworden ist. Martin Luther nämlich ist in Rom zu Kreuze gekrochen; also fand die Reformation nicht statt. Die römisch-katholische Kirche hat die Welt fest in der Hand, in Europa ist ihre Herrschaft absolut, und nur in Amerika ist man etwas aufmüpfiger gegen den Papst und ein bisschen liberaler, was Wissenschaft und technik betrifft. Doch es ist auch eine andere Kirche, als wir sie kennen, eine, die nicht herausgefordert und gedemütigt wurde. Sie ist die Mutter der Gläubigen, in deren weiten Gewandfalten ihrer Hierarchie auch Typen ihren Platz gefunden haben, die in unserer politischen Geschichte als Schurken linker oder rechter Provenienz Karriere machten.

Amis, Kingsley Amis, Kingsley (1922-1995), British novelist, whose works take a humorous yet highly critical look at British society, especially of the period following the end of World War II in 1945. Born in London, he was educated at Saint John's College at the University of Oxford and then served in the British Army Royal Corps of Signals during World War II. After the war he became a college teacher. Amis's first novel, Lucky Jim (1954), a bitingly satirical story of an unheroic young college instructor, won the Somerset Maugham Award. The book influenced a number of British playwrights and novelists, including John Osborne and Alan Sillitoe, who were known as the angry young men because of their rebellious and critical attitude toward postwar British society. In his later novels That Uncertain Feeling (1955) and Take a Girl Like You (1960) Amis further explored his disillusionment.

Extractions: N ovelista inglés cuyas obras abordan, desde una perspectiva humorística y profundamente crítica, la sociedad británica, en especial la del periodo que siguió al fin de la II Guerra Mundial en 1945. Nació en Londres y estudió en el St. John's College de la Universidad de Oxford. Su primera novela, Jim buena suerte (1953), es una sátira mordaz de un joven antihéroe profesor de universidad. Por su actitud crítica y rebelde hacia la sociedad británica de posguerra la novela influyó en un grupo de dramaturgos y novelistas británicos llamados los 'jóvenes airados'. Ese sentimiento de inseguridad (1955) y Una chica como tú (1960) son novelas en las que Amis explora aún más su desilusión. También ha escrito poesía, crítica y cuentos. El hombre verde (1970) es una novela fantástica. En los años setenta escribió El asesinato de Riverside y La bebida (ambas en 1973) y El caso de Jack (1979). Otras obras posteriores son Stanley y las mujeres (1984), una novela antifeminista; Los viejos demonios (1986), una reflexión cómica sobre la clase media de Gales que ganó el premio Booker de aquel año;
