Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback John Galsworthy (1867-1933) - pseudonym "John Sinjohn" English novelist and playwright, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1932. Galsworthy became known for his portrayal of the British upper middle class and for his social satire. His most famous work is THE FORSYTE SAGA (1906-1921), an English parallel to Thomas Mann's Buddenbrooks (1901). Galsworthy was a representative of the literary tradition which has regarded the novel as an instrument of social debate. He believed that it was the duty of an artist to examine a problem, but not to provide a solution. Before starting his career as a writer, Galsworthy read widely the works of Kipling, Zola , Turgenev, Tolstoy , and Flaubert "When a Forsyte was engaged, married, or born, the Forsytes were present; when a Forsyte died - but no Forsyte has as yet died; they did not die; death being contrary to their principles, they took precautions against it, the instinctive precautions of highly vitalized persons who resent encroachments on their property." (from The Forsyte Saga John Galsworthy was born in Kingston Hill, Surrey, into a upper-middle-class family. His father, John Galsworthy, was a lawyer and director of several companies. Galsworthy's mother, the former Blanche Bartleet, was the daughter of a Midlands manufacturer. Galsworthy studied law Harrow and New Collage, Oxford. During this period he gained fame as a cricket and football player, but not with his writings. Once he planned to write a study of warm-blooded horses. Galsworthy's favorite authors were Thackeray, Dickens, and Melville, his favorite composer was Beethoven. In 1890 he was called to the bar. However, he never settled into practice, but chose to travel - partly to forget an unlucky love affair.

John Galsworthy Mr. Galsworthy has reaffirmed the existence of the common man; an individual long ignored upon the English stage. The West End society drama had no place for him. The man in the drawing-room is not upon speaking terms with the man in the street. Epigrammatic comedy gave him no part, for the common man does not deal in epigrams. The music halls burlesqued him, figuring him only with a battered silk hat, a red nose and a pair of parti-coloured trousers. Even melodrama failed to represent him fairly, for the common man is not addicted to crime. Bernard Shaw , engaged in bombarding the very civilization in which the common man believes, burlesqued him as completely as the music hall, stuffed him with persiflage to bursting point, and hurled him at the social order as a new weapon of offence. At this point, Mr. Galsworthy arrived. To all appearance he might never have read a line of Shaw, but he had just as little in common with Sir Arthur Pinero . The Court Theatre opened its doors and Mr. Galsworthy walked in. He proceeded at once to set up his pair of scales upon the stage and to test the social values. In the one pan a Liberal member of Parliament and his son; in the other Mrs. Jones, the charwoman, and her husband. As a makeweight the silver box. Here we see at once the interpenetration of classes which distinguishes Mr. Galsworthy. As in the novel

John Galsworthy N ovelista y dramaturgo inglés, uno de los más famosos y populares a comienzos del siglo XX. Nació en Kingston (Surrey), y estudió en Harrow y en Oxford. Se doctoró en Derecho en 1890 pero pronto cambió la abogacía por la literatura. Galsworthy publicó sus primeros libros con el seudónimo de John Sinjohn. Sus obras retratan principalmente la vida de la burguesía inglesa; sus dramas se centran habitualmente en este estrato de la sociedad, pero en ocasiones se ocupan también, compasivamente, de los pobres y de cuestiones de justicia social. Su pieza teatral La caja de plata (1906), la primera en la que utilizó el recurso de presentar a dos familias paralelas y contrapuestas, tuvo una favorable acogida. La mayoría de sus novelas cuentan la historia, desde la época victoriana hasta el primer cuarto del siglo XX, de una familia inglesa de clase media alta, los Forsyte. El cabeza de familia es Soames Forsyte, y ejemplifica la característica de su clase social por la acumulación de bienes materiales, aunque a menudo entre en conflicto con los valores humanos. La serie de los Forsyte incluye las siguientes obras: El propietario (1906), la novela corta

Galsworthy werd geboren in Kingston Hill en studeerde rechten aan de universiteit van Oxford. Tijdens een reis door het Verre Oosten ontmoette hij Joseph Conrad, die hem tot schrijven aanspoorde. Aanvankelijk gebruikte John Galsworthy niet zijn eigen naam, maar hij publiceerde onder het pseudoniem John St.John. Het grote publiek ontdekte Galsworthy met "The Man of Property" (Het geluk der rijken) in 1906. Dit was het eerste deel van de trilogie, die later bekend zou worden als de "Forsyte Saga". In deze reeks schetste de auteur de Engelse samenleving aan het einde van het Victoriaanse tijdperk. De boeken bekritiseren de leefstijl van de burgerman en tonen ons de sociale verhoudingen van die tijd. Naast romans en verhalen schreef John Galsworthy ook gedichten, essays en toneelstukken. Tot de belangrijkste werken voor toneel behoren: "Strife" (1909), "Justice" (1910), "Old English" (1924), en "The Roof" (1929).
