Like other naturalistic novelists of the 1890s Theodore Dreiser believed in evolutionary and materialistic determinism and gave these ideas powerful expression. Preoccupied with sex, he demanded the freedom to write about it as he saw fit. His hard-won victories over narrow-minded censorship marked a turning point in the history of the American novel. Dreiser was born Aug. 27, 1871, in Terre Haute, Ind., one of 12 children of a German Catholic immigrant and an Ohio woman who gave up her Mennonite religion and her family's good opinion to marry him. Theodore was a sickly child with an almost sightless right eye; he seemed at first to have less chance of survival than the three brothers who had died before him in infancy.

Dreiser, Theodore (1871-1945) Is it necessary to introduce the author of Sister Carrie Jennie Gerhardt (1911) and An American Tragedy (1925)? Theodore Dreiser is one of the great American writers of the 20th century. He was born in Indiana, in a poor family of German origin and had to work early as a journalist and reporter. In all his work, he drew realistic portraits of the conditions of living in the USA at that time. His friendship with John Cowper, started in 1915 and lasted until his death. While John Cowper was in America they saw a lot of each other. John Cowper had the greatest admiration for Dreiser and the two men understood each other. He wrote a long piece on Dreiser for The Dial Theodore Dreiser from Spartacus Educational O we have discovered a Master my dear! Did you read Sister Carrie or The Titan by Theodore Dreiser? Well, this excellent fellow has been discovered by us and has become extraordinarily friendly. He lives in West 10th Street quite close, with a girl who is either his wife or his tart, I know not which. He has the most charming disposition and in appearance resembles Goldsmith or Dr Johnson without their wig. He is nobly and generously ugly, a massive rugged seamed and scarr'd Balzacian type. He talks humorously and dogmatically with quaint American expressions and a sort of genial aplomb....He has that curiously earthy-innocent amorousness and humorous friendliness...He is also, which is rare over here, a real 'gentleman', in his feeling and tact. He has reservation and a sort of generous dignity, which is very pleasing; and he enjoys everything that happens in true terrace-walk fashion. His books have often been suppressed by publishers...(John Cowper Powys

Smith back to site list Supplement: Web-Propagated Misinformation About Dreiser The web, of course, can be a good place for propagating misinformation, and Dreiser is no exception. Below are excerpts from sites with erroneous or misleading statements about Dreiser. “About Theodore Dreiser.” Salon Classics Book Group. http://www.salon.com/promo/1997/10/13classic_dreiser.html With editing help from Henry and “Jug,” Dreiser wrote what is now considered one of his finest novels, Sister Carrie. Frank Doubleday, the publisher, objected to the novel's immorality the tale of a young woman in a big city who succeeds despite, or even because of, her immorality. To fulfill his contact [sic] he agreed to publish Dreiser's work, but refused to promote the book. Charges of obscenity soon followed, making Dreiser a cause célèbre for many young writers. COMMENT: This is an oversimplification and misrepresentation of what really happened with the publication of Sister Carrie , and it conflates facts about the reaction to Sister Carrie with the charges of obscenity that followed the publication of The “Genius.”

Theodore Dreiser (1871-1945) Born in Terre Haute, Indiana, Theodore Dreiser grew up in a poor family with an emotionally distant and morally rigid father. Dreiser supported himself from the age of fifteen, spending one year at Indiana University before obtaining a job as a reporter with the Chicago Globe . He read the works of late-nineteenth-century scientists and social scientists such as Charles Darwin and Thomas Huxley who agreed that human evolution was based upon the principle of the "survival of the fittest." Fascinated by human destinies and motives, Dreiser addressed the tension between determinism and human compassion in his fiction. In the early 1900s, Dreiser suffered a nervous breakdown but rallied to become an editor and, later, editorial director of the Butterick Publishing Company. His novels include Sister Carrie Jennie Gerhardt (1911), and

55. American Study Collection In American Resource Center Theodore Dreiser. Dreiser (18711945) is still considered one of the great Americanrealists, or naturalists. His novels deal with everyday life, http://usinfo.org/literature/r1.htm

Theodore Dreiser Dreiser (1871-1945) is still considered one of the great American realists, or naturalists. His novels deal with everyday life, often with its sordid side. The characters who people his novels, unable to assert their will against natural and economic forces, are mixtures of good and bad, but he seldom passes judgment on them. He describes them and their actions in massive detail. As Dreiser sees them, human beings are not tragic but pathetic in their inability to escape their petty fates. In the end the sheer weight and power of the author's conviction compel the reader to share his compassionate vision. Born in small-town Indiana, Dreiser rebelled as a youth against the poverty and narrowness of the life around him. One of his high school teachers recognized his talent and paid his tuition at Indiana University. But Dreiser left college after a year because he felt it "did not concern ordinary life at all." He had various jobs in Chicago: washing dishes, shoveling coal, working in a factory, and collecting bills¡Xexperiences which he later used in his writing. He taught himself to be a newspaper reporter and supported himself as a journalist and editor for many years while he was struggling to become recognized as a novelist.

56. Theodore Dreiser / A Traveler At Forty Theodore Dreiser (18711945) is established as a major American novelist ofpowerful and unstinting realism. His career peaked well before he died but not http://www.press.uillinois.edu/f04/dreiser.html

A Traveler at Forty Theodore Dreiser Edited by Renate von Bardeleben The complete text finally restored After spending five months in Europe in 1911-1912, Dreiser wrote a detailed account of his travels that, despite his objections, was eviscerated to suit contemporary notions of taste and discretion. His editors insisted on drastic cuts, omitting over forty chapters and diluting many others. The truncated text was published in 1913. The excised portions consisted of autobiographical reminiscences, philosophical speculations, revealing portraits of prominent figures, accounts of Dreiser's relationships with women, and his careful observations of lower-class urban life. Working with the unabridged text of a later typescript, the magazine articles based on this trip, and Dreiser's travel diary and correspondence, Renate von Bardeleben has been able to restore the book in full. The newly edited text is based on a typescript that Dreiser himself had prepared from his holograph to preserve it for future publication. This generously annotated edition with reveals Dreiser's multiple motives in going to Europe: to cultivate his reputation in England, to search for authentic material for his Cowperwood trilogy, to educate himself in European art and history, to pursue his romantic interests, and to explore his ancestral roots in Germany. The 1913 text was the editor's selection for tourists; the new complete text is Dreiser's book about himself.

57. Dreiser / Art, Music, And Literature, 1897-1902 Theodore Dreiser (18711945) was an American author whose novels include SisterCarrie, Jennie Gerhardt, The Titan, and An American Tragedy. http://www.press.uillinois.edu/s01/dreiser.html

Art, Music, and Literature, 1897-1902 Theodore Dreiser Edited by Yoshinobu Hakutani Before coming to national attention for his novel Sister Carrie, Theodore Dreiser worked for nearly a decade as a magazine editor and freelance writer. In this volume, liberally seasoned with period illustrations, Yoshinobu Hakutani has collected and annotated a rich selection of Dreiser's early writings on the cultural milieu of his day. In these brief essays, Dreiser sallies into the vibrant world of creative work in turn-of-the-century America. He inspects the eccentric and revealing paraphernalia of artists' studios, probes the work habits of writers, and goes behind the scenes in the popular song-writing business, where this week's celebrity is next week's has-been. He profiles famous figures such as Alfred Stieglitz and William Dean Howells and introduces numerous women artists, novelists, and musicians, including the prolific and tireless Amelia Barr (mother of fourteen children and author of thirty-two novels), the illustrator Alice B. Stephens, and the opera singer Lillian Nordica. Bubbling up through Dreiser's observations and reflections are a keen curiosity about the creative process and a passion for identifying the peculiarly American spirit reflected in the young nation's artists and their work. Hakutani's notes provide biographical detail on dozens of now-obscure individuals mentioned by Dreiser.
