KEENE, Carolyn
KEENE, Carolyn Harriet Stratemeyer Adams Geboren: 1892. Overleden: 1982 Zoals veel juniorenmysteries, is de Nancy Drew-serie bedacht en werd (althans in het begin) de plot geschetst door Edward Stratemeyer [> Franklin W. Dixon] van het Stratemeyer Concern. Zijn dochter, Harriet Stratemeyer Adams nam later de uitgeverij over en claimde lange tijd de schrijver te zijn van àlle Nancy Drew-verhalen vanaf 1930 tot 1982. Onderzoek bracht aan het licht dat dit niet het geval was. De Nancy-verhalen werden, evenals andere Stratemeyer-series, geschreven door een aantal voorheen anonieme professionele schrijvers, waarvan de belangrijkste Mildred A. Wirt Benson (zie onder) was tot het moment dat Harriet Adams in 1953 (vanaf nummer 30) inderdaad begon met het schrijven van nieuwe delen en ook de oude delen vanaf 1959 reviseerde. Opmerkelijk en uniek is de zorgvuldigheid waarmee geprobeerd werd alle sporen omtrent de ‘echte’ auteurs uit te wissen. Byzantijnse plotten en samenzweringen werden gesmeed om veranderde copyrights; dossiers van The Library of Congress verdwenen en niet bestaande overheidsambtenaren werden opgevoerd om de namen van de ware schrijvers uit de boeken te laten verdwijnen.

Susan and Bill Albert's Book List
Susan and Bill Albert's Book List Susan and Bill had been writing together for some time before they began to write mysteries for adults. At the request of readers, book collectors, and librarians, here is a list of all their books, organized according to the name or pseudonym they used. Susan’s books (written independently) are listed first; their co-authored books are listed second. Bill's independent writing consists of the computer programs, documentation, and technical manuals he wrote in his previous incarnation as a systems analyst—he doesn’t think you'd be interested in that stuff.

The Ghost of Nancy Drew
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Iowa Research Online The Ghost of Nancy Drew GEOFFREY S. LAPIN "It would be a shame if all that money went to the Tophams! They will fly higher than ever!" Thus begins the first book in a series of titles that has whetted the literary appetites of young readers for well over fifty years. The Secret of the Old Clock by Carolyn Keene was to set the tone of juvenile adventure stories that is still leading young folks into the joys of reading the standard classics of literature. Carolyn Keene has been writing the series books chronicling the adventures of Nancy Drew and the Dana Girls since 1929. With over 175 titles published, the author is still going strong, presently producing over fifteen new books each year. Her titles have been translated into at least twelve different lan guages, and sales records state that the volumes sold number in the hundreds of millions. More than the mystery of the endurance of such unlikely literature is the question of who Carolyn Keene is and how one person could possibly be the author of such a record number of "best-sellers." Numerous literary histories offer conflicting information concerning the life of Ms Keene. The one common fact is that there exists no actual person by that name. Carolyn Keene is a pseudonym for the author of the series books. Carolyn Keene was Edward Stratemeyer. Another source says that she was Harriet Adams. Yet others say that she was Edna Squire, Walter Karig, James Duncan Lawrence, Nancy Axelrad, Margaret Scherf, Grace Grote, and a plethora of others.

Nancy Drew Books Discussion (Oct/Nov 1996)
H-Women Nancy Drew Books Discussion (Oct/Nov 1996) Page published by Kolt Ewing on Thursday, June 12, 2014 Nancy Drew Books Discussion (Oct/Nov 1996) Query From Kara Anderson [email protected] 30 Oct 1996 I am currently doing some research about the fictional character Nancy Drew, as written about under the pseudonym "Carolyn Keene." I am trying to get the stories of women who grew up reading the original Nancy Drew stories as they came out in the 1930s. I am trying to understand the reader reaction at that time to the books. I am particularly interested in the response of minority group members. How did they respond to the Nancy Drew series which generally played on racial and ethnic stereotypes, or made all the characters white? I would like the response of all women who read and responded strongly (one way or another) to the Nancy Drew books of the 1930s. Thank you. Responses: >From Genevieve G. McBride [email protected] 01 Nov 1996 See Carolyn Stewart Dyer's Rediscovering Nancy Drew which includes moving recollections of reactions from older and minority women--and much more. >From Amy Brunner [email protected] 01 Nov 1996 You might want to contact the writer Mabel Maney. She recently wrote a spoof of the Nancy Drew series called Nancy Clue. I am unsure of her age so the time frame may be off. The names of the books are The Not So Nice Nurse, The Good For Nothing Girlfriend, and The Ghost in the Closet. >From Kimberly Clark [email protected] 01 Nov 1996 I didn't read the Nancy Drew books in the 1930s but I did grow up on the original stories during the late 1970s.

In the WiQA corpus articles are divided into sentences (snippets) each with its own identifier. Given a title, the task is to find snippets which are Important and Novel relative to the article. We indexed the corpus by sentence using Terrier. In our two-stage system, snippets were first retrieved if they contained an exact match with the title. Candidates were then passed to the Latent Semantic Analysis component which judged them Novel if they did not match the text of the article. The test data was varied – some articles were long, some short and indeed some were empty! We prepared a training collection of twenty topics and used this for tuning the system. During evaluation on 65 topics divided into categories Person, Location, Organization and None we submitted two runs.
