    Extractions: South African writer Nadine Gordimer, premier literary witness to her country's tragedies, has won the 1991 Nobel Prize for Literature, the Swedish Academy announced yesterday. She is the first woman in 25 years to be awarded the honor the most recent was the German-born Swede Nelly Sachs, in 1966 and the seventh woman laureate in the near-century history of the Nobel. Gordimer, 67, is the author of 10 novels and more than 200 short stories; her work over the past 40 years has insistently (and increasingly) focused upon the legacies and moral consequences of apartheid. Heralded as well as banned in her native country, Gordimer has consistently refused to leave South Africa: By addressing its political and racial turmoil in her fiction, she has chosen a spiritual exile over an actual one. In announcing its selection to the press yesterday morning, the Academy praised Gordimer for her ''magnificent epic writing . . . her compassion and her outstanding literary style." When asked over the years about influences upon her work, Gordimer has insisted that she was always "a natural writer," but she has nonetheless invoked Chekhov and Eudora Welty again and again. It is true that her stories have the careful, tensile strength reminiscent of both those writers; in fact, Gordimer's own force and acuity are often most apparent within the constraints of this shorter, demanding form.

    Extractions: HUTCHINSON ENCYCLOPEDIA Gordimer, Nadine South African novelist and short story writer. Internationally acclaimed for her fiction and regarded by many as South Africa's conscience, Gordimer was for many years one of the most prominent opponents of apartheid and censorship. Much of Gordimer's fiction is set in Johannesburg and is generated by a complex of public and private concerns, chief among which are the family, sexuality, interracial social interaction and the imperatives of political commitment in the context of apartheid. She was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1991. Gordimer's own political ideology evolved from the liberal humanism that dominates her novels from her autobiographical debut The Lying Days (1953) through The Late Bourgeois World (1966), to the radicalism that increasingly informs such subsequent novels as the Booker Prize-winning

    Extractions: NADINE GORDIMER See also: Biography: Born in Springs, South Africa in 1923, Nadine Gordimer has lived all her life in South Africa. A novelist, short story writer, critic, essayist, and editor, Nadine Gordimer is one of South Africa's preeminent authors, winning the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1991. She was raised in a segregated town outside Johannesburg and draws on South African political conditions for her works' essential themes. She focuses principally on the complex human tensions that result from apartheid. Praised for her authentic portrayals of black African culture, she is also recognized for using precise details to "evoke both the physical landscape of South Africa and the human predicaments of a racially polarized society." One of her most compelling achievements has been to give the world an understanding of the terrible cost and effect of racism in her country, going beyond what journalism and the media can relate. Her political activism grew over a span of years from secret meetings with ANC members, to becoming a member, and subsequently to her steadfast and courageous support of the group, which now heads

    Extractions: Nadine Gordimer was born in Springs, South Africa in 1923. At age 11 she began her writing career and was first published in the children's section of the Johannesburg Sunday Express in 1947. Since then she has written a number of novels. Excerpts of these, in addition to her countless short stories and articles, have appeared in magazines and newspapers worldwide. Many of her works reflect the political and social dilemmas of living under apartheid in South Africa and consequently, several of her books were banned in that country. Among her numerous awards are the Booker Prize for Fiction (1974), Modern Language Association of America award (1982), and the Premio Malaparte prize (1987). She was a four-time winner of the CNA Award sponsored by the Central News Agency, a book/stationery company in South Africa. In 1991 Gordimer's entire body of work was honored with the Nobel Prize in Literature. She has been decorated Commandeur de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (France) and has received honorary degrees from such institutions as Harvard and Yale universities. In 1991 Gordimer's entire body of work was honored with the Nobel Prize in Literature.

    Extractions: South African novelist and short-story writer, who received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1991. Gordimer's main themes are exile, loneliness and strong political opposition towards racial segregation. She was a founding member of Congress of South African Writers, and even at the height of the apartheid regime, she never considered leaving her country. Nadine Gordimer was born into a well-off family in Springs, Transvaal, an East Rand mining town outside Johannesburg. It was the setting for Gordimer's first novel, THE LYING DAYS (1953). Her father was a Jewish jeweller originally from Latvia and her mother of British descent. From her early childhood Gordimer witnessed the increase of white power at the expense of the rights of the black majority. Gordimer was educated in a convent school and she spent a year at Witwaterstrand University, Johannesburg without taking a degree. Often kept at home by a mother who imagined she had a weak heart, Gordimer began writing from the age of nine and her first story, 'Come Again Tomorrow', appeared in the Johannesburg magazine

    Extractions: Harvard University Press, Cambridge Mass, London UK, 1995, $18.95, 134pp, 674 96232 X The Charles Eliot Norton Lectures at Harvard are certainly among the most prestigious formal literary occasions in the English-speaking world. In 1994 - the South African annus mirabilis - Nadine Gordimer as Nobel Laureate gave the six lectures which have now been published as Writing and Being . The book is an apologia pro vita sua ; an account of her triumph as writer and citizen. She will not, she says in one of the lectures, write an autobiography because she 'is much too jealous of (her) privacy for that' but here she takes the opportunity of the occasion to set her life and work in the discursive world which most fully amplifies her themes. The Nobel Prize is not mentioned but the tone of the laureate permeates the addresses and the formality of the presentation proclaims the achievement. In the event the rhetorical delivery can only have been very powerful and affecting, though this is hard to recover from the published text. In fact one becomes aware from fairly early on of a perplexing current of contradiction running beneath the argument.
