P. G. Wodehouse Conquers Sweden by Bengt Malmberg The quarterly journal of The Wodehouse Society Volume 35 Number 3 Autumn 2014 P. G. Wodehouse Conquers Sweden by Bengt Malmberg n 1964, in a letter to Georg Svensson, chief editor of Ithe publishing house Bonniers, Wodehouse wrote: I am glad of this opportunity to tell you how grateful I am to you for all the trouble you have taken to put me over with the Swedish public. I am so intensely spiritual that money means nothing to me, but I must confess that the cheques that Mr. Watt sends me for my Swedish sales do give me a gentle thrill. Whenever a book of mine is going what my publisher calls “slowly” in the USA, I cheer up because I know that everything is going to be all right in Sweden, thanks to you. In 2012 we celebrated 100 years of Wodehouse in the Swedish language. In October 1912 the weekly magazine Allers Familj-Journal published “Ruth in Exile” as “Ruth i landsflykt” only three months after the original had been published in Strand (July 1912).

Wodehouse,” which was previously printed in an abridged form in Wooster Sauce. It’s an intriguing study of Wodehouse’s own views, as well as commentary by his characters, on the political situation in the world. It would seem, according to the article, that Wodehouse was not as politically naïve as he is sometimes painted. We also have our society website (www.wodehouse. se), which caters to the members of that group. The conclusion to be drawn from all of this is that Wodehouse was, is, and will continue to be very popular in Sweden! “Wodehouse’s Friends” at a meeting on October 24, 1984, with two honorary members.

Murphy May 20, 1933–October 18, 2016 by David Landman t is distressing to report that one of the mainstays I of The Wodehouse Society, Norman Murphy, died on October 18 of complications following a stroke. I stare at this dismal sentence and find it hard to digest. And then it occurs to me—as I sense his scrupulous presence— that I don’t really know what a mainstay is. He would have, though—as well as every other mast, sail, and item of tackle on an eighteenth-century ship of the line. So change the metaphor: Norman Murphy, the dean of The Wodehouse Society, has died. More accurate, perhaps, but no less dismal. Even the bare facts of his life as they are recounted in the splendid obituaries published in the October 20 London Times and Daily Telegraph (http://tinyurl.com/ ntpm-times and http://tinyurl.com/ntpm-teleg) evoke the sense of an extraordinary man. I recommend readers view these touching portraits; in this article I shall just note a Norman explains the Wodehouse regalia tea bell at one of the biennial conventions of The Wodehouse Society few highlights of his life and relate some anecdotes—many from personal experience—that I hope will convey the spirited dash of his personality and what it was like to be in the presence of a man of such intense energy and unquenchable curiosity about everything in the world. Born in London in 1933 to physician Thomas Murphy and his wife, Norah, Irish emigrants from County Cork, Norman told me that one of his earliest memories was being wakened by his mother to watch in the distance the flames consuming the Crystal Palace (then located in southeast London).

  • Index to Plum Lines 1980–2020
    INDEX TO PLUM LINES 1980–2020 Guide to the Index: While there are all sorts of rules and guidelines on the subject of indexing, virtually none can be applied to the formidable task of indexing Plum Lines (and its predecessor, Comments in Passing), the quarterly journal of The Wodehouse Society, which was founded in 1980. Too many variables confront the task’s indexer—not to mention a few too many errors in how issues were numbered over the years (see Index to the Index, below). Consequently, a new sort of index has been created in such a way (we hope) as to make it as easy as possible to use. Following are some guidelines. 1. Finding what you want: Whatever you are looking for, it should be possible to find it using our handy-dandy system of cross-referencing: • SUBJECTS are in BOLD CAPS followed by a list of the relevant articles. (See the list of Subject Headings, below.) • Authors and Contributors (note that some articles have both an author and a contributor) are listed in uppercase-lowercase bold, last name first, with a list of articles following the name. • Regular columns are simply listed in bold under their own titles rather than under a subject heading. 2. Locating the listed article: Any article listed in the index is followed by a series of numbers indicating its volume number, issue number, and page number. For example, one can find articles on Across the pale parabola: 14.2.17; 15.4.13 in Volume 14, Number 2, Page 17 and Volume 15, Number 4, Page 13.

The first part of the paper is concerned with the explicitly comic prose of P.G.Wodehouse, whilst in the second part of the paper, we investigate the laughter-talk, defined as the talk preceding and provoking, intentionally or otherwise, an episode of laughter, occurring during press briefings held at the White House during the Clinton era and the subsequent Bush administration. Both studies, by employing corpus analysis techniques together with detailed discourse reading, integrate quantitative and qualitative approaches to the respective data sets. Keywords Humour, stylistics, Wodehouse, press briefings, Corpus-Assisted Discourse Studies. 1. The comic techniques in the prose of P.G. Wodehouse Despite being widely recognised as perhaps the greatest humorous novelist in the English language, and frequently also simply as a great creative genius (Hilaire Belloc called Wodehouse “the best living writer of English”), as Golab notes, “little evidence has been shown to justify this claim,” there is almost no literature “attempting to specify the reasons for Wodehouse’s success as a humorous writer” 190 Alan Partington From Wodehouse to the White House: A Corpus-Assisted Study of … (2004: 35).

  • Wodehouse and the Baroque*1
    Connotations Vol. 20.2-3 (2010/2011) Worcestershirewards: Wodehouse and the Baroque*1 LAWRENCE DUGAN I should define as baroque that style which deli- berately exhausts (or tries to exhaust) all its pos- sibilities and which borders on its own parody. (Jorge Luis Borges, The Universal History of Infamy 11) Unfortunately, however, if there was one thing circumstances weren’t, it was different from what they were, and there was no suspicion of a song on the lips. The more I thought of what lay before me at these bally Towers, the bowed- downer did the heart become. (P. G. Wodehouse, The Code of the Woosters 31) A good way to understand the achievement of P. G. Wodehouse is to look closely at the style in which he wrote his Jeeves and Wooster novels, which began in the 1920s, and to realise how different it is from that used in the dozens of other books he wrote, some of them as much admired as the famous master-and-servant stories. Indeed, those other novels and stories, including the Psmith books of the 1910s and the later Blandings Castle series, are useful in showing just how distinct a style it is. It is a unique, vernacular, contorted, slangy idiom which I have labeled baroque because it is in such sharp con- trast to the almost bland classical sentences of the other Wodehouse books. The Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary describes the ba- roque style as “marked generally by use of complex forms, bold or- *For debates inspired by this article, please check the Connotations website at <http://www.connotations.de/debdugan02023.htm>.
