Mary Renault Mary Renault was born in London, where her father was a doctor.

She then trained for three years as a nurse, and wrote her first published novel, Promise of Love. Her next three novels were written during off-duty time when serving in World War II. One of them, Return to Night, received the MGM award. After the war, she went to South Africa and settled at the Cape. She has traveled considerably in Africa and has gone up the east coast to Zanzibar and Mombasa. But it was her travels in Greece that resulted in her previous brilliant historical reconstructions of ancient Greece. The Last of the Wine, The King Must Die, The Bull from the Sea, The Mask of Apollo, Fire from Heaven, The Persian Boy, and The Praise Singer. In addition to the novels, she has written a biography of Alexander the Great, The Nature of Alexander.

T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z Renault, Mary (1905-1983) page: After five novels which included suggested lesbianism, Mary Renault turned to open male homosexuality in the last nine, which included The Charioteer and eight celebrated historical novels set in ancient Greece. Renault was born Eileen Mary Challans in London, September 4, 1905, daughter of Frank Challans, a physician, and Clementine (Baxter) Challans. (Her pen name, which she used throughout her career, was taken from Otway's Venice Preserved. Sponsor Message. Although she wrote short stories, radio plays, and nonfiction, Renault is best known as a novelist. The last eight of her fourteen novels, historical fictions set in ancient Greece, are the most highly regarded. All of her novels, however, deal at some level of explicitness with homosexuality: a diffused or suggested lesbianism in the first five and an openly presented male homosexuality in the last nine. Educated in London and Bristol, Renault read English at St. Hugh's College, Oxford, from which she graduated in 1928. In 1933, having rejected most of the conventional options available to women, Renault entered nurses' training. At Radcliffe Infirmary, Oxford, she met Julie Mullard, a fellow nurse who became her lifelong companion.

35. Beyond Renault - Mary Butts much for its ambiance as for the storyline. In it, one can even see an echo of mary renault. (One must wonder if she had read it http://home.earthlink.net/~mathetria/Beyond_Renault/butts.html

Home Book List Other Media Links ... Creator Mary Butts The Macedonian William Heinemann, c1933 (no ISBN) [no cover worth reproducing] Although she died at only 45, Mary Butts still managed to leave a mark on the literary world of English women's fiction. The span of her life encompassed the end of the romantic period and, like Bercovici's and Mann's, her novel falls into that literary tradition. Philosophic speculation, extended poetic metaphors and short narrator digressions abound in a way more reminiscent of Henry James than of Toni Morrison. Likewise, Butts' history reflects the knowledge and assumptions of her time. She presents the division between Greek and barbarian (which includes the Macedonians) as a division between Apollonic reason and Dionysic passion, perhaps predictably using Philip and Olympias to embody the contrast. Alexander is a mixture of both, suffering from psychological war between the two. And it's that psychological war which is, of course, Butts' very Platonic theme: the battle of the light horse against the dark. If based on history, this is not an historically accurate book, even given what was known of Alexander in the 1920s and 30s. We have the historically implausible collaboration between Philip and Aristotle well before Alexander's birth, idealistically plotting the future education of this boy who would be king. Ptolemy's place is too prominent and romanticized. (She even calls "handsome" this man with a face like an old shoe.) Kleitos comes across as a bit of a bucolic fool, and Kallisthenes is the soul of democratic-philosophic courage.
