Authors of the 20th Century
Directly after the end of the Second World War people commenced to feel that the world’s core ethical foundations are simple and justifiable . Both general politics and social relations were relying on the concepts of development, beneficial change , faith in science , enlightenment , innovations , and the knowledge of how to explain any phenomenon from a analytical viewpoint . Notwithstanding , beginning from the second half of the 60’s, the world began to degrade and currently , 40 years thereafter , we live in a new kind of actuality .
We easily note all innovations which are given us by new technology, but we infrequently are aware of the fact that there are certain ideas which the author has put behind those technological solutions. The nature of the expected change was at first spotted by those people, who more often than not lived anteceding their time – writers and authors. Among the multiple authors whose works have served for pleasure , there have been a few who have given the planet a new picture of the future . They have better than others other authors formed and worded new suggestions and have ultimately molded a new intelligent and perceptual substantiation of the future. They have noticed issues in the mundane of our lives and have unveiled a array of problems, which were going on without being noted . They have aided us to realize the new issues , and sent us new hope .
These were the authors who have formed the thoughts of the entire generation, which has taken the blow of cardial change; change, which was viewed as anarchy at the dawn of the 21 first century. They have made us focus our attention to the most problematic dilemmas of the previous era ; those questions , which the humankind , having gone through the global wars and wild number of deaths, was reluctant to meet . Lastly they were formulating the most important issue “How will we live in the world of future?”
In this paper we will specify some of the most famous authors of the 20th century. They have all much impacted literature of their epoch, have reflected tendencies and dilemmas which were essential to their countries and the times they existed in, and have made the readers analyze the existing ideology of moral, having them realize that it is far from being genuine. One of the most exciting aspects of their work is that in mostly they have risen the audience attention in books and written works. from this angle one of the most interesting success stories is that of a brilliant writer Anne Bronte .
The success of Joan Rowling can be considered phenomenal as she has found herself to be the first author in the world to make $1 billion by writing fairytales. She is today spending a significant part of her profit on charity, battling poverty and illness. The idea of the book was found 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 friendly piece of advice — to look for a stable job. He was doubtful of the fact that the young author would be able to make a living off of writing books. Joann has demonstrated the opposite - having written a series of amazing fairytales, she has made the so-called non-reading generation get back to reading books.
This paper cannot name and more or less accurately list all authors who have made their contribution to the today’s literature. They have been working and bringing ideas exactly into the minds of the people, and thus were shaping the future. therefore, as we can see, these authors were not creating for entertainment only, but they were also playing a considerable role in creating the culture and the looks of a society of the 20th century.
