She has written extensively on New York families with old money in struggle with social climbers. Her fiction belongs to the novel of manners tradition. Her prose is elegant and her plots are tightly constructed. A prolific writer, she received a Pulitzer Prize in 1921 and, two years later, she became the first woman to receive a Doctor of Letters degree from Yale University.

Edith Wharton (1862-1937) Contributing Editor: Elizabeth Ammons Classroom Issues and Strategies In my experience, students divide sharply on Wharton. Some love her work, responding particularly to the elegance and precision of her prose and the sharpness of her wit; others don't like her at all, finding it hard to "get into" her fiction because she seems so cold, the prose seems so detailed and self-conscious, and the subject matter is so elite. Mainly I try to get the two groups talking/arguing with each other. The result usually is that each can appreciate the point of view of the other, and we can start there: with a view of Wharton in which she is both marvelously accomplished as a stylist within a particular aesthetic andin some ways on the very same groundslimited as a writer by class and temperament. One issue students are very interested in is sexuality in Wharton's fiction, ranging from what birth control was available at the time and in the class she wrote about to what her own attitudes toward sex were. Another question is: Why care about all these rich privileged people in Wharton's fiction? Who cares? (One response I give to this is that the top of the pyramid gives a very good sense of what the whole culture aspires to, since those are the people that everyone envies and wishes to beor is supposed to envy and wish to be. Wharton's fictive world tells us a lot about how the whole culture works and what it values and is supposed to value.) Finally, a question that often gets asked is "What other works by Wharton would you recommend reading?" A good sign.

Search Literature: Classic Classic Literature E-text House of Mirth by Edith Wharton Book I Book II Book 1 Selden paused in surprise. In the afternoon rush of the Grand Central Station his eyes had been refreshed by the sight of Miss Lily Bart. It was a Monday in early September, and he was returning to his work from a hurried dip into the country; but what was Miss Bart doing in town at that season? If she had appeared to be catching a train, he might have inferred that he had come on her in the act of transition between one and another of the country-houses which disputed her presence after the close of the Newport season; but her desultory air perplexed him. She stood apart from the crowd, letting it drift by her to the platform or the street, and wearing an air of irresolution which might, as he surmised, be the mask of a very definite purpose. It struck him at once that she was waiting for some one, but he hardly knew why the idea arrested him. There was nothing new about Lily Bart, yet he could never see her without a faint movement of interest: it was characteristic of her that she always roused speculation, that her simplest acts seemed the result of far-reaching intentions.

She was a descendant of Ebenezer Stevens, a member of the Boston Tea Party and was raised in the upper class. She married Edward Wharton in 1885 and she would divorce him in 1913 after almost 30 years of marriage because they had grown apart and he had numerous affairs. After she settled in Paris she hardly visited the US. In France it was easier to be taken seriously for a woman and she developed many intellectual friendships. In Paris she knew people like Anna de Noailles, André Gide and Jean Cocteau. In 1908 she had a brief affair with the journalist Morton Fullerton, a friend of Henry James. She received the French Legion of Honor because of her philanthropic work during the First World War. In 1920 she was the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for her novel "The Age of Innocence".

Edith Wharton E scritora estadounidense galardonada con el Premio Pulitzer. En sus novelas describe las numerosas contradicciones de una sociedad atrapada en el desapasionamiento de la época victoriana. Edith Newbold Jones nació en Nueva York el 24 de enero de 1862, y recibió una educación privada. En 1885, se casó con el banquero Edward Wharton, de quien se divorció en 1913. Durante la década de 1890 escribió relatos para Scribner's Magazine, y en 1902 publicó una novela histórica titulada El valle de la decisión . Su fama literaria se consolidó finalmente con La casa de la dicha (1905), una obra que, como muchas de sus novelas posteriores, está poblada de personajes pertenecientes al cerrado y artificioso mundo social en el que ella misma había nacido. En 1907, se estableció definitivamente en Francia. Su novela corta Ethan Frome , una trágica historia de amor entre personas corrientes ambientada en Nueva Inglaterra, se publicó en 1911. En opinión de muchos críticos, este libro alcanza, por su sencillez, una universalidad que no tienen sus novelas de sociedad. Posteriormente Wharton produjo un gran número de novelas, libros de viajes, relatos (entre los que destacan algunos cuentos de fantasmas memorables) y poemas. Otras novelas dignas de mención son: Las costumbres del país La edad de la inocencia (1920; Premio Pulitzer en 1921), y cuatro novelas cortas agrupadas en

Home Author Index Shakespeare The Bible ... Edith Wharton Fiction Ethan Frome Summer The Age of Innocence The Bunner Sisters ... The Reef Edith Wharton Search all of Edith Wharton Edith Wharton (1862-1937) , American author best known for her stories and ironic novels about upper class people. Wharton's central subjects were the conflict between social and individual fulfillment, repressed sexuality, and the manners of old families and the 'nouveau riche', who had made their fortunes in more recent years. Edith Wharton was born on January 24, 1862 in New York, into a wealthy and socially prominent family. She was educated privately by European governesses. In 1885 she married Edward Wharton, a Boston banker, who was twelve years her senior. Wharton's role as a wife with social responsibilities and her writing ambitions resulted in nervous collapse. She had started to compose poems in her teens and she was advised that writing might help her recover. Her first book, The Decoration Of Houses , appeared in 1897. Her husband started to show increasing signs of mental instability. In 1906-09 Wharton had an affair with the American journalist Morton Fullerton, the great love of her life. The Whartons were divorced in 1913 and Edith spent the rest of her life in France. In the 1890s Wharton started to contribute to Scribner's Magazine . Her first collection of short stories appeared in the late 1890s. Wharton gained her first literary success with her book The House Of Mirth (1905), a story of a beautiful but poor woman, Lily Bart, trying to survive in the pitiless New York City.
