Through it, we intend to stress the influence his books and/or the films based on them had on many young generations who, under their shelter, chose a career in medicine. Prize-winning writer and PhD, in his works -formally adorned with his great talent for description and observation- he intermingles naturalism, conflicting passions, medical situations and social criticism. Beyond all discussion about his literary career and his repercussion on film, his influence on those who embraced Medicine following in the steps of his characters, many of whom were nothing more than a reflection of himself, is unquestionable.

  • Realidad Y Ficción En Grand Canary, La Novela De A
    REALIDAD Y FICCIÓN EN GRAND CANARY, LA NOVELA DE A. J. CRONIN EN TENERIFE Mª Isabel González Cruz INTRODUCCIÓN Una de las muchas sorpresas que nos llevamos cuando preparábamos nuestras Notas para 2009 una bibliografía inglesa sobre Canarias (2002) fue la de encontrar una publicación realizada en 1933 en los Estados Unidos por A. J. Cronin, escritor británico de cierto renombre, que, en ese momento, nos era desconocido, al igual que le ocurrirá a muchos de los futuros lectores de este trabajo. Acostumbrados a leer el título Grand Canary en multitud de guías turísticas o universitaria, libros de viajes sobre esta isla, nos resultó sorprendente descubrir que en realidad este libro era una novela ambientada en el Archipiélago. Una segunda sorpresa la tuvimos al comprobar que el mencionado título resultaba engañoso, pues el barco en el que viajan los protagonistas Biblioteca hace escala sólo por unas horas en el puerto de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria y la mayor parte de la acción transcurre, en contra de lo que pudiera esperarse, en la isla de Tenerife. En este trabajo empezaremos dando unas breves pinceladas sobre el autor, el impacto de esta novela y ULPGC. su argumento, para centrarnos luego en comentar las diversas referencias que aparecen en la por obra, en un intento de dirimir si éstas tienen visos de realidad o si, por el contrario, se trata de elementos ficticios aportados por el autor. realizada EL AUTOR, ARCHIBALD JOSEPH CRONIN El autor, médico escocés retirado, está considerado un gran novelista y un verdadero maestro en “contar historias de nuestro tiempo” acerca de los problemas de unos personajes que resultan muy reales.

  • Athens, December 25Th 1809-March 5Th 1810
    117 Athens, December 25th 1809-March 5th 1810 Athens December 25th 1809–March 5th 1810 Edited from B.L. Add. Mss. 56527 and 56529. Athens was not a metropolitan centre in 1810; it was technically the fiefdom one of the Black Eunuchs at Constantinople, and neither Turks nor native Greeks valued it as romantic philhellenes did. It seems to have lacked any intelligentsia, other than the Frankish contingent (Lusieri, Fauvel, Galt), and neither Byron nor Hobhouse seems to have made much of a social life there, as they did in Milan, Venice, Paris, and elsewhere. Once, Hobhouse is reduced to spending three hours chatting with Fletcher! Hobhouse, seems to get on better with the Turks than with the Greeks – until, that is, his character-forming solo expedition to Œgrippo (modern Khalkis) on February 8th-9th, where his perception of the indifferent rapacity lurking beneath even the most grave of Mussulman fronts – plus the amount of money he’s forced to disburse to his hosts – seems to turn him against the conquerors for good. His subsequent reflections on the revolutionary potential of the Dervene militia (February 10th) constitute his first steps on the path which leads to the foundation of the London Greek Committee over ten years later. Perhaps in consequence of Athens’ social barrenness, the diary for these two-and-a-bit months consists mainly of descriptions of expeditions outside the city, and there Hobhouse often skirts bathos by his tourist-guide obsession with distances, compass-points, and directions. But there are highlights. The account of the near-fatal visit to the spa cave on January 21st is only slightly marred by our uncertainty as to whether or not Byron shared it.

    Jerzy Gronau WĘDRÓWKI PO BIBLIOGRAFII ANGIELSKIEGO AUTORA ARCHIBALDA JOSEPHA CRONINA (1896 – 1981) Kraków, 2007 Jerzy GRONAU – Wędrówki po BIBLIOGRAFII A.J. CRONINA - 2 - Wstęp: Genezą tego opracowania były: - moja emerytura, - chęć powtórzenia swego rodzaju zabawy umysłowej którą przeżywałem przy innych pracach podobnego charakteru, - konstatacja o braku w polskim piśmiennictwie aktualnej bibliografii tego autora. 1. Od początku mej pracy nie posługiwałem się żadną bibliografią, lecz tylko danymi z katalogów bibliotek i sprzedawców książek. Dopiero przy znacznym zaawansowaniu opracowania, dotarłem do wcześniejszych opracowań bibliograficznych (podanych w źródłach opracowania) i uzupełniłem swoje dane. Żadna z polskich bibliotek tak naukowych jak i publicznych nie posiada nawet w przybliżeniu kompletu polskich wydawnictw tego autora. Podobnie jest też z zagranicznymi renomowanymi bibliotekami. 2 W języku angielskim ( także w niemieckim i francuskim) przy porządkowaniu wg alfabetu nazw - tytułów, zamieszanie wprowadzają rodzajniki:”The, A, An” i inne. Stąd powstały tabele tytułów w języku angielskim ze skróconymi nazwami, bez rodzajników. 3. Zaznaczyć muszę, że w językach angielskim, niemieckim i francuskim, wprowadziłem do tabel tylko nazwy spotkanych tytułów bez specjalnej uwagi na określone wydania książkowe czy czasopisma w których ukazywały się prace Cronina. Nie są to więc ściśle bibliografie a raczej - spisy spotkanych tytułów. Jednak w tabelach z tytułami angielskimi starałem się o wpisanie daty najstarszych wydań danej pracy,

Still a masterpieceBy EDWARD J STODDARDAn outstanding book, based on A J Cronin's experiences as a medical doctor(world one) and as an author(world two). Each chapter is more or less self contained and is a cameo of his life. The book is marred by sloppy editing which would not have occurred in the printed copy- mainly spelling errors that a spell check would have detected0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Fresh and surprisingBy A. T. RamsayThis autobiographical novel, set in the 30's and 40's, is honest and racing. Scottish life and people come alive. Well written. Adventures in Two Worlds - an autobiographical novel by A J Cronin, creator of television's Dr Finlay and author of The Citadel and many other bestsellers.A master storyteller, A J Cronin presents possibly his most fascinating tale. Taking material directly from his own life, he tells of the early struggles of a poor medical student in Scotland, the cruel crushing of all hopes of becoming a surgeon, the years as a ship's doctor and, later, life in the country practice that was the real Tannochbrae.There are many strange twists and turns - not the least of them the dramatic move from the world of medicine into that of literature when a novel 'written despairingly on twopenny exercise books, thrown out and rescued from the rubbish heap' was accepted by a publisher.
