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.

Overleden: Toledo, Ohio, 28 mei 2002 Mildred Benson schreef de eerste 25 Nancy Drew-titels en nr 30 (uitgezonderd de nrs 8, 9 en 10) en schreef daarnaast nog vele andere juniorentitels, voornamelijk avonturen voor meisjes: Ruth Fielding (o.ps. -

It has both mirrored and influenced popular thought as it has found readers throughout the West ern world. "The drama and the poetry, but chiefly the novel, of America have risen to a position of prestige and of influ- 2 ence abroad seldom equaled in history." Consequently, the content of the novel is of concern to educators. The present study is concerned with the interpretation of the student of higher education in the United States as found in the work of certain prominent American novelists of the twentieth century. The procedure used in selecting the five literary writers included an examination of annotated bibliographies of the American novels published during the twentieth century.
