    Extractions: Dos Passos, John Roderigo Dos Passos, John Roderigo, , American novelist, b. Chicago, grad. Harvard, 1916. He subsequently studied in Spain and served as a World War I ambulance driver in France and Italy. In his fiction, Dos Passos is said to have mingled the naturalism of Theodore Dreiser with the modernism of James Joyce. His first successful novel, Three Soldiers (1921), belonged to the group of socially conscious novels of disillusionment that appeared after the war. With Manhattan Transfer (1925) his major creative period began. Intertwining accounts of a succession of unrelated characters, the novel presents a composite picture of the meaninglessness and decadence of the life of the typical early 1920s New Yorker. In his finest achievement, the trilogy U.S.A.

26. John Dos Passos
    http://www.epdlp.com/dospassos.html
    
    Extractions: E scritor estadounidense representativo de la "generación perdida", cuyas novelas, amargas y profundamente impresionistas, atacan la hipocresía y el materialismo de los Estados Unidos entre las dos guerras mundiales y tuvieron una honda influencia en varias generaciones de novelistas europeos y estadounidenses. Dos Passos nació el 14 de enero de 1896 en Chicago y estudió en la Universidad de Harvard. Su experiencia como conductor de ambulancias en Francia durante la guerra le sirvió como telón de fondo de su primera novela, Iniciación de un hombre: 1917 (1920). El reconocimiento de la crítica y del público le llegó con su siguiente novela, amarga y antibelicista, Tres soldados Manhattan Transfer (1925), una visión panorámica de la vida neoyorquina entre 1890 y 1925, tuvo un éxito inmenso. Esta poderosa novela, construida con fragmentos de canciones populares, titulares de prensa, pasajes de monólogo interior y fragmentos naturalistas de las vidas de una multitud de personajes sin relación entre sí, determinó el estilo de las mejores de sus últimas novelas. Su trilogía USA (reunida en 1938), en el mismo estilo, amplió su panorama para abarcar todo el país. Comprende las novelas El paralelo 42 (1932) y El gran dinero (1936), y describe el crecimiento del materialismo estadounidense desde la última década del siglo pasado a la Gran Depresión. Tras la publicación de USA, Dos Passos sufrió un cambio en su filosofía. Dadas sus dotes observadoras, viajó por Europa, Oriente Próximo y Marruecos como periodista y el resultado fue una gran desilusión política que plasmó en otra trilogía

    Extractions: the costs of maintaining this site. Mark Twain and John Dos Passos On War Mark Twain an John Dos Passos have similar viewpoints of war in their writings, although Twain is a traditional 19 th century fiction writer, and Dos Passos is a modernist of the Harlem Renaissance; from Twain, The War Prayer , and Dos Passos, The Body of an American A personal biography, of sorts, is necessary to understand the political climates each writer faced, and also their own political viewpoints. Twain wrote The War Prayer in response to the Spanish/American war. Having written works such as Huckleberry Finn, A Connecticut Yankee and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Lauter, 213) Had Twain not been such a popular author, his later texts, including , may have gone unnoticed, however, they are now considered by many to be his best. (Lauter, 213) The writings of John Dos Passos are heavily influenced by his experience with war in The Great War, now known as World War I, where he volunteered as an ambulance driver. Schooled in the traditional ways, and eventually attending Harvard University, Dos Passos was obviously affected. World War I left many with the aura of hopelessness, as entire cities and cultures were destroyed. A sense of fracture and incompleteness are expressed in writings of the period. Dos Passos, too, left a sense of dazed bewilderment is his writings.

Manhattan Transfer ist der Name der berühmten Fähren von New York, und mit den erzählerischen Mitteln der Collage und einem an die Filmtechnik erinnernden kontrastreichen Nebeneinander von Episoden und Brüchen läßt Dos Passos ein schillerndes Porträt des urbanen New Yorker Dschungels entstehen, in dem das Jagdfieber wütet: nach Arbeit, Glück und Macht.
