Authors of the 20th Century
Right after the denouement of the Second World War people began to deem that the world’s core rules are simple and justifiable . Both politics and social relations were relying on the ideas of advancement , good changes , trust in science , enlightenment , technical innovations , and the ability to ground any phenomenon from a analytical viewpoint . However , beginning from the second half of the 60’s, the world began to degrade and currently , 40 years thereafter , we dwell in a changed type of existence .
We easily mark those advancements which are brought to us by new technology, but we seldom are aware of the fact that there are specific concepts standing behind those inventions . The core of the upcoming change was initially noticed by those people, who as a rule of thumb lived ahead of their time – philosophers and authors. Among the numerous authors whose works have served for pleasure , there have been a few who have given the humankind a new vision . They have better than others other authors created and worded fresh ideas and have in the end created formed a fresh intelligent and emotional grounding of the future. They have found problems in the mundane of our lives and have unveiled a set of problems, which were going on without being noticed . They have assisted us to realize the new challenges , and sent us new hope .
These were the authors who have shaped the vision of the entire generation, which has observed the period of cardial change; change, which was seen as disarray at the dawn of the 21 first century. They have attracted our attention to the most problematic dilemmas of the last epoch ; those issues , which the humankind , having survived through the global wars and unprecedented sufferings , was afraid to deal with . In the end they were formulating the most important issue “What will our future be like?”
In this paper we will specify some of the most prominent authors of the 20th century. They have all greatly impacted literature of their time, have depicted looks and problems which were essential to their society and the period they were living in, and have motivated the readers think about the existing philosophy of moral, having them realize that it is far from being ideal. One of the most exciting feature of their work is that in mostly they have awake the person’s attention in books and written matter. from this angle one of the most interesting success writings is that of a well known writer Anne Bronte .
The achievement of Joan Rowling can be called unique as she has found herself to be the first author in the world to earn $1 billion by publishing fairytales. She is currently spending a extensive part of her profit on charity, fighting poverty and illness. The idea of the book was invented while she was on the train from Manchester to London. When the publisher has first agreed to bring out her book, she has given her 1500 pounds together with a kind advice — to find a stable job. He was hesitant of the fact that the young writer would be able to make a living off of writing. Joann has proved the opposite - having written a series of exceptional fairytales, she has motivated the so-called non-reading people get back to reading.
This work is not able to enumerate and more or less precisely list all writers who have offered their contribution to the world’s literature. They have been writing and presenting ideas directly into the minds of the millions, and thus were influencing the future. therefore, as we can see, these authors were not writing for entertainment only, but they were also playing a considerable part in molding the culture and the views of a civilization of the 20th century.
