    Extractions: PLEASE VISIT OUR ART BOUTIQUE TO VIEW PRINTS BY FRENCH ARTISTS JEAN GENET - French Dramatist T Jean Paul Sartre , Genet was an orphan, thief, and homosexual who had spent most of his youth in prison. There he developed his personal credo: to harden himself against pain. Reversing the Christian mystic's ascent toward a state of holiness, Genet in the 1930s embarked on a satanic pilgrimage with the goal of reaching the lowest possible state of evil. The Thief's Journal (1949; Eng. trans., 1964) is his record of this journey, in which no aspect of suffering, sordidness, and degradation was spared him. While still in prison, Genet wrote his first novel, Our Lady of the Flowers (1943 and 1951; Eng. trans., 1963), a transposition and sublimation of the elements of his life. Likewise, in Miracle of the Rose (1943 and 1951; Eng. trans., 1966), his heroesmonsters and saintsrepresent aspects of the men he knew in prison, as well as extensions of himselfrootless, troubled personalities in revolt. G enet's plays are the finest products of his art, mature reappraisals of the themes treated in his novels. In

    Extractions: Jean Genet French novelist, playwright and poet Jean Genet was born in Paris on December 19, 1910. Abandoned by his parents, he spent much of his youth in an institution for juvenile delinquents. At the age of ten, he was accused of stealing. Although innocent of the charge, having been described as a thief, the young boy resolved to be a thief. "Thus," wrote Genet, "I decisively repudiated a world that had repudiated me." Between 1930 and 1940, he wandered through various European countries, living as a thief and male prostitute. Eventually, he found himself in Hitler's Germany where he felt strangely out of place. "I had a feeling of being in a camp of organized bandits. This is a nation of thieves, I felt. If I steal here, I accomplish no special act that could help me to realize myself. I merely obey the habitual order of things. I do not destroy it." So Genet hastened on to a country that still obeyed a more conventional moral code. In 1943, after being imprisoned for theft, Genet began writing. Ignoring traditional plot and psychology, Genet's plays rely heavily on ritual, transformation, illusion and interchangeable identities. His experiences in prison would inform much of his work. The homosexuals, prostitutes, thiefs and outcasts of his plays are trapped in self-destructive circles. They express the despair and loneliness of a man caught in a maze of mirrors, trapped by an endless progression of images that are, in reality, merely his own distorted reflection.

    Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Jean Genet (1910-1986) This French writer, a dramatist and convicted felon, became one of the leading figures in the avant-garde theater. Genet has described in his works an underworld of male prostitutes, convicts, pimps and social outcasts. For a long time he so addicted to theft that he stole diamonds from his hostesses at a literary reception. However, his life changed radically when such prominent figures as Jean-Paul Sartre and Jean Cocteau clamored successfully for his parole. He subsequently escaped the criminal world to become a writer, who glorified the underworld and homosexual love. "O let me be nothing but beauty alone! Quickly or slowly I will go, but I will dare what must be dared. I will destroy appearances, the casings will be burnt off and will fall from me, and I will appear there, some evening, on the palm of your hand, calm and pure like a statuette of glass." (from The Thief's Journal "In writing out for his pleasure the incommunicable dreams of his particularity, Genet has transformed them into exigencies of communication... Genet began to write in order to affirm his solitude, to be self-sufficient, and it was the writing itself that, by its problems, gradually led him to seek readers."

    Extractions: Welcome to *the* JEAN GENET PAGE But now I am afraid. The signs pursue me and I pursue them patiently. They are bent on destroying me. Didn't I see, on my way to court, seven sailors on the terrace of a cafe, questioning the stars through seven mugs of light beer as they sat around a table that perhaps turned; then, a messenger boy on a bicycle who was carrying a message from god to god, holding between his teeth, by the metal handle, a round, lighted lantern, the flame of which, as it reddened his face, also heated it? So pure a marvel that he was unaware of being a marvel. Circles and globes haunt me: oranges, Japanese billiard balls, Venetian lanterns, jugglers' hoops, the round ball of the goalkeeper who wears a jersey. I shall have to establish, to regulate, a whole internal astronomy.                                                       from Our Lady of the Flowers ElectroAsylum Main Page Email?

Genet, Jean Please scroll down for Bibliographies REVIEW: This single page on Genet is a brief first introduction to Genet, detailing his rejection of society and giving outlines of his principle works. The links all connect to Amazon and benefits from Amazon’s reviews but this limits the value of the site to an overview of Genet. The page is part of the Moonstruck Drama Bookshop which is a mainstream site (you can listen to Broadway songs while you surf) but which covers a impressive range of playwrights and might function as a useful reference point for undergraduates. Reviewed March 2001, by Stuart Andrews. Rate link REVIEW: This French site on Genet is part of ifrance, a magazine style service based in France. Google's 'translate a page' service makes it slightly more accessible for non-French speakers, click here for a translated version . The site is clearly laid out although the top buttons link to title pages, which slows browsing. There are sections on Genet's texts, with production details, forthcoming production information, a timeline and a discussion forum. In the translation, 'Gold Book' is the guest book and 'Bonds' are links. France, July 2002, (May be automatic update).
