   Extractions: www.jacklondon.com Jack London (John Griffith) (1876-1916) Jack London, whose life symbolized the power of will, was the most successful writer in America in the early 20th Century. His vigorous stories of men and animals against the environment, and survival against hardships were drawn mainly from his own experience. An illegitimate child, London passed his childhood in poverty in the Oakland slums. At the age of 17, he ventured to sea on a sealing ship. The turning point of his life was a thirty-day imprisonment that was so degrading it made him decide to turn to education and pursue a career in writing. His years in the Klondike searching for gold left their mark in his best short stories; among them, The Call of the Wild, and White Fang. His best novel, The Sea-Wolf, was based on his experiences at sea. His work embraced the concepts of unconfined individualism and Darwinism in its exploration of the laws of nature. He retired to his ranch near Sonoma, where he died at age 40 of various diseases and drug treatments.

   Extractions: Translated into Spanish Translated into Euskera [Basque] John Griffith London (1876-1916) was born in San Francisco of an unmarried mother of wealthy background, Flora Wellman. His father may have been William Chaney, a journalist, lawyer, and major figure in the development of American astrology. Because Flora was ill, Jack was raised through infancy by an ex-slave, Virginia Prentiss, who would remain a major maternal figure while the boy grew up. Late in 1876, Flora married John London, a partially disabled Civil War veteran. The family moved around the Bay area before settling in Oakland, where Jack completed grade school. Though the family was working class, it was not so impoverished as London's later accounts claimed. As an adolescent, the boy adopted the name of Jack. He worked at various hard labor jobs, pirated for oysters on San Francisco Bay, served on a fish patrol to capture poachers, sailed the Pacific on a sealing ship, joined Kelly's Army of unemployed working men, hoboed around the country, and returned to attend high school at age 19. In the process, he became acquainted with socialism and was known as the Boy Socialist of Oakland for his street corner oratory. He would run unsuccessfully several times on the socialist ticket as mayor. Always a prolific reader, he consciously chose to become a writer to escape from the horrific prospects of life as a factory worker. He studied other writers and began to submit stories, jokes, and poems to various publications, mostly without success.

    http://elibrary.fultus.com/mergedProjects/London, Jack (1876-1916)/book.htm
    
    Extractions: Prolific American novelist and short story writer, whose works deal romantically the overwhelming power of nature and the struggle for survival. London's identification with the wilderness makes him the antecedent of the Green movement. His left-wing philosophy is seen in the class struggle novel THE IRON HEEL (1908). JOHN BARLEYCORN, which describes the London's drinking bouts, connects him with such authors as Charles Bukowskiand Jack Kerouac. On the other hand, London's views about the superiority of white people and that only the strongest deserve to survive have placed him among the ultra-right conservatives. "Fiction pays best of all and when it is of fair quality is more easily sold. A good joke will sell quicker than a good poem, and, measured in sweat and blood, will bring better remuneration. Avoid the unhappy ending, the harsh, the brutal, the tragic, the horrible - if you care to see in print things you write. (In this connection don't do as I do, but do as I say.) Humour is the hardest to write, easiest to sell, and best rewarded... Don't write too much. Concentrate your sweat on one story, rather than dissipate it over a dozen. Don't loaf and invite inspiration; light out after it with a club, and if you don't get it you will nonetheless get something that looks remarkably like it." - (From 'Getting into Print', first published in 1903 in The Editor magazine) Jack London was born in San Francisco

    Extractions: Jack London was born on January 12, 1876, in San Francisco. He was deserted by his father, William Henry Chaney, , and raised in Oakland by his mother Flora Wellman, a music teacher and spiritualist, and stepfather John London, whose surname he took. London's youth was marked by poverty. At the age of ten he became an avid reader, and borrowed books from the Oakland Public Library. After leaving school at the age of 14, London worked as a seaman, rode in freight trains as a hobo and adopted socialistic views as a member of protest armies of the unemployed. In 1894 he was arrested in Niagara Falls and jailed for vagrancy. Without having much formal education, London educated himself in public libraries, and at the age of 19 gained admittance to the University of California at Berkeley. He had already started to write. For the remainder of 1898 London again tried to earn his living by writing. His early stories appeared in the Overland Monthly and the Atlantic Monthly . In 1900 he married Elisabeth Maddern, but left her and their two daughters three years afterwards, eventually to marry Charmian Kittredge.

Jack London Jack London (1876-1916) was easily the most successful and best-known writer in America in the first decade of the 20th century. He is best known for his books, Ellen. He brought techniques observed in Japan, like terracing and manure spreading and used them on his farm. Troubled by physical problems, during his thirties, London developed kidney disease. He died on November 22, 1916. Following his death, for a number of reasons a myth developed in which he was made up to be an alcoholic womanizer who committed suicide. But it was proved wrong. But its rumor has resulted in neglect of his books and his popularity. His writings became translated in several dozen languages, and he remains more widely read by other countries around the world, than in America. Because he read so much, he chose to become a writer as an escape from the terrible life as a factory worker. He studied many famous writings and began to submit stories, jokes, and poems but most came without success. His experiences when he was a boy, later formed books for boys' adventure stories like The Cruise of the Dazzler (1902) and Tales of the Fish Patrol (1905). A committed socialist, he insisted against editorial pressures to write political essays and insert social criticism in his fiction. Spending the winter of 1897 in the Yukon, he began publishing in the Overland Monthly in 1899. Many were books were written during this period of his life he told stories in The Son of the Wolf (1900), Children of the Frost (1902), Smoke Bellew (1912). Although The Call of the Wild (1903) brought him lots of fame , many of his short stories also became famous, like

    Extractions: E scritor estadounidense que combina en su obra el más profundo realismo con los sentimientos humanitarios y el pesimismo. John Griffith London nació en San Francisco hijo de un astrólogo ambulante, al que no conoció, y de una espiritista que se casó con Yack London meses después del nacimiento de su hijo. Completó sus estudios de bachillerato mientras realizaba diversos trabajos. En 1897 y 1898 viajó a Alaska, empujado por la corriente de la fiebre del oro. Antes había sido marino, pescador, e incluso contrabandista. De regreso a San Francisco comenzó a relatar sus experiencias. En 1900 publicó una colección de relatos titulada El hijo del lobo que le proporcionó un gran éxito popular. Publicó más de 50 libros que le supusieron grandes ingresos pero que dilapidó en viajes y alcohol. Fue corresponsal de guerra y vivió dos matrimonios tormentosos. Se suicidó a la edad de 40 años. De ideas socialistas y siempre del lado de los trabajadores, London fue militante comunista e incluso agitador político. Pero, autodidacta como era, las lecturas del filósofo alemán Nietzsche le llevaron a formular que el individuo debe alzarse frente a las masas y las adversidades. Esta contradicción individualidad-colectividad está presente en su obra. Su tesis general es la de que el ser humano no es bueno por naturaleza, y sólo los fuertes consiguen alzarse en la vida que es dura; estos seres serán los que pongan los cimientos para una sociedad más justa. Muchos de sus relatos, entre los que destaca su obra maestra
