Sinclair Lewis - Autobiography
Written for acceptance of Nobel Prize in Literature 1930.
http://nobelprize.org/literature/laureates/1930/lewis-autobio.html

Extractions: I was born in a prairie village in that most Scandinavian part of America, Minnesota, the son of a country doctor, in 1885. Until I went East to Yale University I attended the ordinary public school, along with many Madsens, Olesons, Nelsons, Hedins, Larsons. Doubtless it was because of this that I made the hero of my second book, The Trail of the Hawk , a Norwegian, and Gustaf Sondelius, of Arrowsmith , a Swede - and to me, Dr. Sondelius is the favorite among all my characters. My university days at Yale were undistinguished save for contributions to the Yale Literary Magazine. It may be interesting to say that these contributions were most of them reeking with a banal romanticism; that an author who was later to try to present ordinary pavements trod by real boots should through university days have written nearly always of Guinevere and Lancelot - of weary bitterns among sad Irish reeds - of story-book castles with troubadours vastly indulging in wine, a commodity of which the author was singularly ignorant. What the moral is, I do not know. Whether imaginary castles at nineteen lead always to the sidewalks of Main Street at thirty-five, and whether the process might be reversed, and whether either of them is desirable, I leave to psychologists.

Extractions: Sinclair Lewis, the first American to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, was born in Sauk Centre, Minnesota, in 1885. Although he was proud of his Midwestern roots, he traveled widely and was interested in many different aspects of American society, from business and medicine to religion and small town life. His concern with issues involving women, race, and the powerless in society make his work still vital and pertinent today. As Sheldon Norman Grebstein wrote in his work Sinclair Lewis , Lewis "was the conscience of his generation and he could well serve as the conscience of our own. His analysis of the America of the 1920s holds true for the America of today. His prophecies have become our truths and his fears our most crucial problems." Sinclair Lewis was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for Main Street and Babbitt , and won the award for Arrowsmith (although he turned it down). He was a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters and the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He died in Rome in 1951.

Sinclair Lewis - Nobel Lecture

http://nobelprize.org/literature/laureates/1930/lewis-lecture.html

Extractions: HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL Nobel Lecture, December 12, 1930 I wish, in this address, to consider certain trends, certain dangers, and certain high and exciting promises in present-day American literature. To discuss this with complete and unguarded frankness - and I should not insult you by being otherwise than completely honest, however indiscreet - it will be necessary for me to be a little impolite regarding certain institutions and persons of my own greatly beloved land. But I beg of you to believe that I am in no case gratifying a grudge. Fortune has dealt with me rather too well. I have known little struggle, not much poverty, many generosities. Now and then I have, for my books or myself, been somewhat warmly denounced - there was one good pastor in California who upon reading my Elmer Gantry I can illustrate by an incident which chances to concern the Swedish Academy and myself and which happened a few days ago, just before I took the ship at New York for Sweden. There is in America a learned and most amiable old gentleman who has been a pastor, a university professor, and a diplomat. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and no few universities have honored him with degrees. As a writer he is chiefly known for his pleasant little essays on the joy of fishing. I do not Suppose that professional fishermen, whose lives depend on the run of cod or herring, find it altogether an amusing occupation, but from these essays I learned, as a boy, that there is something very important and spiritual about catching fish, if you have no need of doing so.

Extractions: Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History , novelist, satirist of middle-class values. Born in Sauk Centre, Minnesota, the son of a stern hardworking doctor, Lewis matured slowly, writing a number of minor novels and working as a publicist and editor. In 1920 he found his voice with Main Street, a devastating portrait of the American small town, its dullness, mindless prejudices, and lonely stultified women. He followed this book with Babbitt (1922), an equally vigorous assault on a typical small-town businessman and his narrow, contradictory values. Lewis was more than a critic of American culture, however. In his next novel, Arrowsmith (1925), which he wrote in collaboration with the bacteriologist Paul de Kruif, he revealed his admiration for the heroic side of the American dream. Martin Arrowsmith is a brilliant medical researcher who struggles against the temptations of irresponsible women, unethical opportunists in the medical profession, and his own human impulses, which threaten his professional integrity. The novel won the Pulitzer Prize, but Lewis created a literary sensation by rejecting it. In 1920 the Pulitzer judges had awarded the prize to Main Street

Extractions: Sinclair Lewis The Granger Collection [Video] in full HARRY SINCLAIR LEWIS (b. Feb. 7, 1885, Sauk Centre, Minn., U.S.d. Jan. 10, 1951, near Rome, Italy), American novelist and social critic who punctured American complacency with his broadly drawn, widely popular satirical novels. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1930, the first given to an American. Lewis graduated from Yale University (1907) and was for a time a reporter and also worked as an editor for several publishers. His first novel, Our Mr. Wrenn (1914), attracted favourable criticism but few readers. At the same time he was writing with ever-increasing success for such popular magazines as The Saturday Evening Post and Cosmopolitan, but he never lost sight of his ambition to become a serious novelist. He undertook the writing of Main Street as a major effort, assuming that it would not bring him the ready rewards of magazine fiction. Yet its publication in 1920 made his literary reputation. Main Street is seen through the eyes of Carol Kennicott, an Eastern girl married to a Middle Western doctor who settles in Gopher Prairie, Minn. (modeled on Lewis' hometown of Sauk
