After a year at the university, he couldn’t resist the lure of the Klondike gold rush in Canada. He never returned to college, but he also never got rich from his trip to the goldfields. London came home from Canada not with gold, but with ideas. Becoming a writer was one way to escape what he felt would be a dreary existence as a laborer. He trained himself by studying other writers’ works. He began submitting jokes, stories, and poems to magazines and received many rejection let- ters. Gradually, however, success came.

In The Call of the Wild, Jack London writes about his main character, the dog Buck, as if the dog were human. The formal name for giving human qualities to animals is anthropomorphism. This word comes from the Greek words for “human” and “form.” To anthropomorphize something is to give it human form, or human characteristics. London doesn’t have Buck speak or walk upright, but he does give the dog human thoughts and emotions.

Into the Primitive “Old longings nomadic leap, Chafing at custom’s chain; Again from its brumal sleep Wakens the ferine strain.” Buck did not read the newspapers, or he would have known that trouble was brewing, not alone for himself, but for every tide-water dog, strong of muscle and with warm, long hair, from Puget Sound to San Diego. Because men, groping in the Arctic darkness, had found a yellow metal, and because steamship and transportation companies were booming the find, thousands of men were rushing into the Northland. These men wanted dogs, and the dogs they wanted were heavy dogs, with strong muscles by which to toil, and furry coats to protect them from the frost. Figure 1: Jack London, 1905. Photo: Public White Fang Domain Chapter I—The Trail of the Meat Dark spruce forest frowned on either side the frozen waterway. The trees had been stripped by a recent wind of their white covering of frost, and they seemed to lean towards each other, black and ominous, in the fading light. A vast silence reigned over the land. The land itself was a desolation, lifeless, without movement, so lone and cold that the spirit of it was not even that of sadness. There was a hint in it of laughter, but of a laughter more terrible than any sadness—a laughter that was mirthless as the smile of the sphinx, a laughter cold as the frost and partaking of the grimness of infallibility.

  • A Study of the Call of the Wild from the Perspective of Greimas' Semiotic Square Theory
    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 6, No. 8, pp. 1706-1712, August 2016 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17507/tpls.0608.27 A Study of The Call of the Wild from the Perspective of Greimas’ Semiotic Square Theory Weiguo Si College of International Studies, Southwest University, China Abstract—Algirdas Julien Greimas is the most influential French structural linguist. He puts forward the profound semiotic square, which has been widely used in the research of literature to reveal the implied meanings and relationship between complex things. The Call of the Wild written by the American naturalistic writer Jack London is his representative work. It has been studied by a lot of scholars from different perspectives since its birth. This thesis applies semiotic square theory, further classifying characters in this novel: Buck is the X; Trafficker is the Anti X; Spitz is the Non X; John is the Non anti X. By the use of the comparative analysis method and the textual close-reading method this thesis analyzes the plot and the deep structure of The Call of the Wild. The result of this thesis is as follows: the relation between Buck and the traffickers is oppression and resistance; the relation between Buck and Spitz is competitor; the relation between Buck and John Thornton is protective and grateful. Through classifying the action elements, readers can see the narrative structure of this novel, which is not stated flatly but with its own unique tortuosity and complexity and it is conducive to deepening their understanding about the artistry and profundity of this novel, and help readers better understand the Superman image of Buck, the main character in The Call of the Wild, and provide them with the effective example in appreciating Jack London’s other literary works.

  • Gill 1 in the Sea-Wolf (1904) and Call of the Wild (1903), Jack London
    Gill 1 In The Sea-Wolf (1904) and Call of the Wild (1903), Jack London depicts what Aristotle would call “the good life” ( eudemonia )—the pursuit of not just “happiness” but “goodness”: how to lead a just, meaningful, virtuous life. At the center of eudemonia is the development of the individual, which includes a broad education designed to enable both individual lives and communities of human beings to flourish. Thus, London remains an exceptional American author who not only exemplifies the literary movement of “Naturalism,” but also who explores philosophical questions. London’s fiction depicts a frightening vision of sociological determinism and, even more importantly, an existential worldview, which prefigures authors such as Albert Camus and Jean-Paul Sartre at the mid-point of the 20 th century. In The Sea-Wolf , Jack London pits the brute force of nature against human culture, both of which present ways of being in the world. On the one hand, nature, as symbolized in Wolf Larsen, the novel’s protagonist, is a blind force, while, on the other hand, culture, as symbolized in Humphrey Van Weyden, the novel’s narrator, appears to be a calculated way of making meaning, a self-serving mechanism that works with human agency. By presenting these two seeming contraries, London works out a philosophical system that combines elements of each realm. The subject of the Sea-Wolf is the search for the Good life, which, according to London, means enduring existential crises and striving to attain a sense of balance. Wolf Larsen, the captain of a schooner named Ghost, and for whom the novel is named, depends on might, acting without compromise.

    A TEACHER’S GUIDE TO THE SIGNET CLASSIC EDITION OF JACK LONDON’S THE CALL OF THE WILD BY JIM COPE and WENDY COPE SERIES EDITORS: W. GEIGER ELLIS, ED.D., UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA, EMERITUS and ARTHEA J. S. REED, PH.D., UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, RETIRED A Teacher’s Guide to the Signet Classic Edition of Jack London’s The Call of the Wild 2 INTRODUCTION Before there was Hemingway, Steinbeck, Kerouac, and Mailer, there was Jack London. Perhaps no other American writer led a life as exciting as that described in his fiction. Born in San Francisco to an unwed mother from a wealthy back- ground, London grew up with his mother and stepfather in a working class neighborhood in Oakland. After leaving school in the eighth grade, he held a series of hard scrabble jobs including oyster pirate, fish patrol member, sailor on a sealing ship, and cross-country hobo before he returned to attend high school at age 19. The combination of his travels, many low paying jobs, and vast reading turned the young London into a fiery socialist who built his world view from the writings of Charles Darwin, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Herbert Spencer. These experiences, self-education, and great per- sonal discipline turned London into a fine writer. But no other experience influenced his writing more than his partici- pation in the Klondike gold rush from 1897 to 1899. A great journal writer, London recorded his adventures in the “Northland” including the countless stories he heard from fellow travelers while stranded in an abandoned trappers’ cabin for his first long winter in the Yukon.

  • The Call of the Wild
    The Call of the Wild Reading Group Guide for Students About this Book Buck has everything a dog could want: a huge estate in the Santa Clara Valley to roam about, plenty of food and other creature comforts, and the respect of his master. The story opens at a ranch in Santa Clara Valley, California, when Buck is stolen from his home and sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska. He becomes progressively feral in the harsh environment, where he is forced to fight to survive and dominate other dogs. By the end, he sheds the veneer of civilization, and relies on primordial instinct and learned experience to emerge as a leader in the wild.. Discussion Topics • Describe Buck's life on Judge Miller's estate. In what ways is it like his life as a sled dog? In what is it different? • How did Buck learn what was required of him up North? Can you think of more effective ways to train a dog? What was Buck's reaction to the way he was trained and to the lessons he learned? • A team of sled dogs has a very clearly defined social order. How is this order maintained? How does Buck fit into Francois and Perrault's team of dogs? • When describing a pack of sled dogs chasing a snowshoe rabbit, the author says "There is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise. And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive." What does this mean? Do you agree with this statement? Can you think of examples of this particular sort of ecstasy? Do you think that Buck would ever have reached this state if he hadn't been brought North? • Hal, Charles, and Mercedes are clearly not suited for life on the Alaskan trail.
