| Opplysninger | Since its inception, the Nobel Prize for literature has given a very public voice to some of the worlds greatest writers, and their responses to the honortheir acceptance speecheshave often been epochal. From the famed call to arms by William Faulkner to the multicultural song of Derek Walcott, from 1903s Bjornstjerne Bjornson to 1999s Gunter Grass, this collection of 28 speeches traces the ideals of the artists and the selection committee itself throughout the 20th century. Included are an introduction to each of the writers chosen, an abridged copy of the speech or lecture and a bibliography of works in English.
