Authors of the 20th Century
Directly after the cease of the Second World War the society began to consider that the world’s essential rules are plain and consistent . Both world politics and social relations were relying on the thoughts of development, positive change , belief in science , understanding , technological progress , and the potential to explain any activity from a analytical standpoint . Nevertheless , starting from the second half of the 60’s, the world has begun to change and currently , 40 years after , we live in a transformed type of existence .
We without any problems mark all changes which are brought to us by new technology, but we barely comprehend the fact that there are some concepts which the author has put behind those inventions . The core of the future adjustment was initially spotted by those people, who more often than not lived ahead of their time – poets and authors. Among the multiple authors whose books have served for entertainment , there have been a few who have given people a new vision . They have more effectively than others other authors formed and worded fresh thoughts and have in the end done a fresh intellectual and emotional analysis of the future. They have spotted problems in the mundane of our lives and have shed light onto a array of problems, which were going on without being spotted . They have aided us to become aware of the new issues , and gave us new aspirations .
These were the authors who have determined the mindset of the entire generation, which has taken the blow of drastic change; change, which was seen as mayhem at the beginning of the 21 first century. They have turned our attention to the most tormenting problems of the past century; those questions , which the humankind , having gone through the world wars and wild number of deaths, was unwilling to meet . In the end they were voicing the most important question “How will we live in the world of future?”
In this work we will name some of the most popular authors of the 20th century. They have all much impacted literature of their time, have manifested looks and difficulties which were typical to their people and the times they were living in, and have motivated the readers think about the running set of values, having them understand that it is far away from being perfect. One of the most important feature of their work is that in often they have risen the people attention in books and written matter. in this case one of the most exciting success writings is that of a well known 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 earn $1 billion by writing fairytales. She is now spending a great part of her profit on charity, confronting poverty and illness. The idea of the book was created while she was on the train from Manchester to London. When the publisher has first decided to bring out her book, she has given her 1500 pounds together with a loving piece of advice — to find a permanent job. He was doubtful of the fact that the young writer would be able to make money of writing books. Joann has showed the opposite - having published a series of unparalleled fairytales, she has made the so-called non-reading people get back to reading.
This work cannot enumerate and more or less accurately list all writers who have offered their contribution to the world’s literature. They have been working and putting ideas exactly into the minds of the millions, and therefore were shaping the future. therefore, as we can see, these writers were not creating for entertainment only, but they were also playing a considerable part in molding the culture and the perception of a society of the 20th century.
