Слайд 2

Описание слайда:

Early years Saul Bellow was born Solomon Bellows in Lachine, Quebec, Canada, two years after his parents emigrated from Saint Petersburg, Russia. A period of illness from a respiratory infection at age eight both taught him self-reliance (he was a very fit man despite his sedentary occupation) and provided an opportunity to satisfy his hunger for reading. When Bellow was nine, his family moved to the Humboldt Park neighborhood of Chicago

Education and early career Bellow attended the University of Chicago but later transferred to Northwestern University. He originally wanted to study literature, but he felt the English department to be anti-Jewish; instead, he graduated with honors in anthropology and sociology. During World War II, Bellow joined the merchant marine. From 1946 through 1948 Bellow taught at the University of Minnesota. In the late 1950s he taught creative writing at the University of Puerto Rico at Rio Piedras.

Themes and style The author's works speak to the disorienting nature of modern civilization, and the countervailing ability of humans to overcome their frailty and achieve greatness (or at least awareness). Principal characters in Bellow's fiction have heroic potential, and many times they stand in contrast to the negative forces of society. Jewish life and identity is a major theme in Bellow's work, although he bristled at being called a "Jewish writer." Bellow's work also shows a great appreciation of America, and a fascination with the uniqueness and vibrancy of the American experience.
