| Biografia John Galsworthy |
|
John Galsworthy nacque a Coombe [Surrey] nel 1867 .
Studiò ad Harrow e legge al New College di Oxford. Viaggiò molto ed all'età di 28 anni cominciò a scrivere, all'inizio solo per il proprio divertimento.
Scrisse numerosi romanzi, tra cui popolarissimi quelli del ciclo La saga dei Forsyte (The Forsyte sa ga, 1906-1921), cui seguì la serie Una commedia moderna (A modern comedy, 1924-1928). In essi Galsworthy ritrae l'alta borghesia inglese vittoriana, dapprima criticandone l'avidità mercantile, poi rimpiangendone la solidità di princìpi. Anche nei drammi Lot ta (Strife, 1909) e Lealtà (Loyalties, 1922) svolse una moderata polemica contro le ingiustizie sociali. Nel 1932 vinse il nobel.
Le motivazioni del premio nobel: "Per la sua distinta arte della narrazione che prende le sue più alte forme nella saga "The Forsyte".
Galsworthy morì a Hampstead (Londra) nel 1933.
