86. Anette Horn: Nadine Gordimer
    nadine gordimer received various international awards, culminating in the NobelPrize in 1991. International acclaim brought her recognition in South Africa.  
    http://web.uct.ac.za/projects/poetry/reviews/gordimer.htm
    
    Extractions: Nadine Gordimer seems to have reconciled the conflicting demands of ethics and aesthetics "in an age when any transcendental basis for ethics (as for aesthetics) is being denied in the name of politics", as John Coetzee has stated. Is an ethics possible without such a transcendental basis in view of deconstruction's premise that the text produces its own meanings in an endless play of the signifier? The moral agency of the author is elided in the act of writing, so that the text reveals contradictions and silences that the author is not aware of. Whereas the author's conscious statements may be assigned to a rational subject, his/her silences form part of the collective unconscious of a class. This renders the idea of the moral responsibility of the author meaningless. The writer constructs "reality" from the vantage point of the subject which has been constituted by social texts. It is the critic's role to tease out these contradictions and silences. Mehring's view of the land and the elements as a threat carries political overtones, "as if the invader [i.e. the fire] were reconnoitring a place to cross - which eventually it did by leaping from reeds to reeds and burning down towards the hidden islands." Inorganic nature seems to possess an unfathomable force which encompasses both destruction and regeneration. After the fire everything seems dead except the "glancing river": "The river is extraordinarily strong, slithering and shining, already it seems to be making the new paths possible for it through the weakened foothold of destroyed reeds." The descriptions of nature have a distinctive sensual, even erotic quality.

    Extractions: At four in the afternoon the old moon bleeds radiance into the grey sky. In the wood a thick plumage of fallen oak leaves is laid reverentially as the feathers of the dead pheasants swinging from the beaters' belts. The beaters are coming across the great fields of maize in the first light of the moon. The guns probe its halo. Where I wait, apart, out of the way, hidden, I hear the rustle of fear among creatures. Their feathers swish against stalks and leaves. The clucking to gather in the young; the spurting squawks of terror as the men with their thrashing sticks drive the prey racing on, rushing this way and that, no way where there are not men and sticks, men and guns. . . . Six leaves from my father's country. When I began to know him, in his shop, as someone distinct from a lap I sat on, he shouted at the black man on the other side of the counter who swept the floor and ran errands, and he threw the man's weekly pay grudgingly at him. I saw there was someone my father had made afraid of him. A child understands fear, and the hurt and hate it brings. I gathered the leaves for their pretty autumn stains, not out of any sentiment. This village where we've rented the State hunting lodge is not my father's village. I don't know where, in his country, it was, only the name of the port at which he left it behind. I didn't ask him about his village. He never told me; or I didn't listen. I have the leaves in my hand. I did not know that I would find, here in the wood, the beaters advancing, advancing across the world.

Title Nadine Gordimer Short Stories and Novel Manuscripts Dates: Abstract: This collection contains typescripts for thirteen short stories and one novel. Quantity: .5 Box (.21 linear feet) Identification: Repository: Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, University of Texas at Austin Nadine Gordimer, novelist and short story writer, was born in Springs, South Africa, in 1923. She spent her childhood in Transvaal, and began writing at an early age, publishing her first short story, "Come Again Tomorrow," when she was 15. At 21, Gordimer briefly attended Witwatersrand University in Johannesburg where she was exposed to the social and political atmosphere of South Africa, which would become the focus of her works. Gordimer married twice first in 1949 to G. Gavron, with whom she has a daughter, and then to Reinhold Cassirer in 1954. They have a son. Gordimer remained in Johannesburg and her works reflect the racially turbulent themes of South Africa's history. She has published ten novels. Her first was the semi-autobiographical

    Extractions: BOOKS The Pickup, by Nadine Gordimer By Troy Patterson The Nobel laureate's 13th novel is a parable of politics and desire. Julie Summers is a white South African in the bloom of a hippie-ish rejection of her ruling-class father. Her car breaks down and she falls for her mechanic, an ex-economics student and illegal Arab immigrant who calls himself Abdu. As it turns out, the class-crossed lovers' aspirations run askew, too: Julie's ready to drop out of the bourgeois world; Abdu aspires to it; and Gordimer, deploying the finest kind of irony and attuned to the tiniest gestures, spins an eloquent tale about the ways in which romance ratifies self-image.

90. The Bi-Co News - Nadine Gordimer Brings Her Work To Bryn Mawr On Thursday
    Tamar Anolic Contributing Editor On Thursday, October 3, South African NobelLaureate nadine gordimer will come to Bryn Mawr to read from her writing.  
    http://www.biconews.com/article/articleview/620/1/24/
    
    Extractions: The reading, which is in Thomas Great Hall and begins at 7:30 p.m., is a part of Bryn Mawr’s Creative Writing Program Reading Series, which brings a number of writers to campus each year to read from or speak about their work. Gordimer’s reading is also sponsored by the Lucy Martin Donnelly Women Writers Series, and is open to the entire campus and community. As if there weren’t already enough reasons to go, the reading also happens to be free. Gordimer hails from South Africa and is an ardent anti-apartheid activist as well as a member of the African National Congress. Though she has written several books about lives shaped by racial discrimination, she says that apartheid is not the subject that has most influenced her writing. The question of apartheid “comes up quite interestingly now in South Africa,” she says. “People say to all of us here, ‘What are you going to write about now that there’s not more apartheid?’”
