It was as a young woman that Annie Ernaux first wrote these words in her diary, giving a name to her purpose in life as a writer. She returns to them in her stirring defense of literature and of political writing in her Nobel Lecture, delivered in Stockholm on December 7, 2022. To write of her own life, she asserts, is to "shatter the loneliness of experiences endured and repressed;" to mine individual experience is to find collective emancipation. Ernaux's speech is a bold assertion of the capacity of writing to give people a sense of their own worth, and of one writer's commitment to bearing witness to life, its joys and its injustices. Includes Annie Ernaux's Nobel lecture, her Nobel banquet speech, a congratulatory speech by Professor Anders Olsson, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Literature, and the Nobel opening address by Professor Carl-Henrik Heldin, Chairman of the board of the Nobel Foundation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Ernaux, Annie, $d 1940- 650 0 $a Literature $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Politics and literature. 650 0 $a Nobel Prize winners. 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM / General. $2 bisacsh. 655 7 $a Lectures. $2 lcgft. 700 1 $a Strayer, Alison L., $e translator. 700 1 $a Heldin, Carl-Henrik. 700 1 $a Olsson, Anders, $d 1949- 700 1 $a Lewis, Sophie, $e translator. 700 1 $a Loughran, Kim, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20231107011101.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6263F51E7D3B11EE9BA621765EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
