This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher. "Painted in broad, sweeping strokes, each tale is a tour de force."mdash;New York TimesFrom the PublisherJack London (1876-1916) is author of Call of the Wild, Sea Wolf, and White Fang, among many other works.About the AuthorJohn Griffith "Jack" London (January 12, 1876 ndash; November 22, 1916) was an American author, journalist, and social activist. He was a passionate advocate of unionization, socialism, and the rights of workers. He wrote several powerful works dealing with these topics, such as his dystopian novel The Iron Heel, his non-fiction exposeacute; The People of the Abyss, and The War of the Classes. In 1889, he began working 12 to 18 hours a day at Hickmott's Cannery. Seeking a way out, he borrowed money from his foster mother Virginia Prentiss, bought the sloop Razzle-Dazzle from an oyster pirate named French Frank, and became an oyster pirate. In 1893, he signed on to the sealing schooner Sophie Sutherland, bound for the coast of Japan. When he returned, the country was in the grip of the panic of '93 and Oakland was swept by labor unrest. After grueling jobs in a jute mill and a street-railway power plant, he joined Kelly's Army and began his career as a tramp. In 1894, he spent 30 days for vagrancy in the Erie County Penitentiary at Buffalo, New York. On July 12, 1897, London (aged 21) and his sister's husband Captain Shepard sailed to join the Klondike Gold Rush. This was the setting for some of his first successful stories. His time in the Klondike, however, was detrimental to his health. Like so many other men who were malnourished in the goldfields, he developed scurvy.

İşçi sınıfının sermaye sınıfı karşısında takındığı tavır, örgütlenme; sendikalaşma ve grevleri yaratarak çeşitli toplumsal hareketlere neden olmuştur. Bu iki sınıfın yüz yıllar boyunca çatışmasına neden olan faktörler London’ın eserlerinde, kapitalist sistem eleştirisi temeline dayandırılarak anlatılmıştır. Sanayi Devrimi’nin etkilerinin yoğun bir şekilde hissedildiği 19.yüzyılın sosyal ve ekonomik yapısını, o dönemin edebi eserlerinde inceleyebilmek oldukça mümkündür. Bu anlamda, işçi sınıfı içinde büyüyen Jack London’ın yaşamının ve eserlerinin incelenmesi, o dönem hakkında önemli çıkarımlar yapılmasına olanak sağlayacaktır. Çalışmada, Jack London’ın eserlerinde bahsettiği üzere emek ve sermaye arasındaki sınıf mücadelesi, kapitalist sistem eleştirisi kapsamında ele alınarak incelenecektir. Sanayi Devrimi’nin çalışan sınıf üzerinde neden olduğu olumsuz sonuçların belirlenmesi ve sınıf savaşımının ne gibi koşullar içerisinde oluştuğunun gözlemlenmesi amacıyla Jack London’ın; Demir Ökçe, Uçurum İnsanları, Martin Eden, Ay Vadisi, Yanan Günışığı, Dönek ve Meksikalı gibi önemli eserleri incelenecektir. Bunun yanında London’ın kaleme aldığı siyasi deneme ve makalelerine de başvurularak onun dünya görüşü hakkında önemli bilgilere ulaşılmıştır ve

  • Handout 1.7: the Early 20Th Century Name Class ( )
    Name Class ( ) The Early 20th Century By the 20th Century, the short story was a well-established literary form in the West, thanks to the influence of earlier writers like Edgar Allan Poe, Guy de Maupassant, and Anton Chekhov. The short story continued to flourish throughout the 20th Century due to the proliferation of popular magazines. Writers began to use the literary form of the short story to explore a variety of genres, including love stories, fantasy and horror stories, crime and mystery stories and science fiction. Many short stories written in the early 20th Century reflect issues related to the Age of Industrialisation. During this time, a growing number of people left their farmlands and moved to the cities to work in factories. Some short stories feature the lives of immigrants, who worked hard and learned to adapt to a new language and culture in an unfamiliar environment. Major historical events like World War I, the Great Depression and World War II form the backdrop to many of the best short stories written in the first half of the 20th Century. Here is a list of just some of the most frequently anthologised short story writers of the early 20th Century. Short story writers Short story Well-known collections short stories 1. M. R. James (1862-1936), British Ghost Stories of an Number 13 Antiquary (1904) M. R. James was a medieval scholar The Rose Garden most famous for his ghost stories.

Early in his career, London realized that he had no talent for invention, that in his writing he would have to be an interpreter of the things that are, rather than a creator of the things that might be. Accordingly, he drew his plots, characters, themes, and settings from real-life experiences and published accounts. London’s career as a novelist began shortly after the turn of the twentieth century with the publication of A Daughter of the Snows. It ended nineteen novels later with the posthumous publication of The Assassination Bureau, Ltd. in 1963.

The 100th Anniversary Collection honors Jack London’s death in 1916. The text and illustrations are taken from the fi rst editions, and the covers are replicas of the fi rst edition covers. Jack London’s Life Jack London lived a life of extremes while becoming the best known author in the world. Raised in a working class family in Oakland, California, he was primarily self-taught. His adventurous life provided material for his stories, articles, and books. Known for his realistic writing, his life experiences are revealed in every book. He spent time as a teenage oyster pirate on San Francisco Bay, sailed on a sealing schooner, train-hopped the country as a hobo, scrambled for gold in the Klondike, sailed the Pacific, and was heavily involved in socialism. His dream house in Glen Ellen burned to the ground the day it was finished. A well-known Socialist, his death was observed by a cease-fire for a day during the Russian Revolution. Wide range of subjects The collection highlights the wide range of subjects that London wrote about during his life- time. He fi rst gained fame for his stories of the Klondike gold rush, such as “Call of the Wild” and “White Fang”.

    1 The Fiction of Jack London: A Chronological bibliography Compiled and Annotated by DALE L.WALKER The University of Texas at El Paso Original Research and Editing by JAMES E. SISSON III Berkeley, California Updated Research and Editing by Daniel J. Wichlan Pleasant Hill, California 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Foreword 3 Introduction (Revised) 6 Key to Collections 10 Chronological Bibliography 12 Books by Jack London 48 Jack London: A Chronology 51 Appendix 54 Index 56 Selected Sources 64 3 FOREWORD TO THE NEW EDITION Through the assistance of the late Russ Kingman, the great Jack London authority and long- time friend, I made contact by correspondence with James E. Sisson III, in 1970. I had asked Russ for advice on who I could contact on questions about some of London’s hard-to-find short fiction. "Jim Sisson is the guy," said Russ. Sisson, a Berkeley, California, researcher, was very helpful from the outset and his encyclopedic knowledge of London’s work quickly resolved my questions. In subsequent correspondence I learned that Sisson felt London’s short stories were not adequately treated in Jack London: A Bibliography, compiled by Hensley Woodbridge, John London and George H. Tweney (Georgetown, CA: Talisman Press, 1966). He complained that the stories were buried among magazine articles, chapters from The Cruise of the Snark, The Road, and other nonfiction works, all lost in a welter of foreign language translations including Latvian, Finnish, Turkoman, and Ukrainian. He also claimed that many of London’s stories were missing from Woodbridge, remaining buried in obscure and long-defunct magazines, uncollected in book form.
