Evelyn Waugh

2008-11-16T21:38:07Z

Micheldene: /* Later Years */

Evelyn Waugh (28 October 1903 – 10 April 1966) was an English novelist and essayist. He first achieved fame with satirical novels such as ''[[Decline and Fall]]'' (1928) and ''[[A Handful of Dust]]'' (1934), before widening his appeal with the elegaic ''[[Brideshead Revisited]]'' (1945) and the more pessimistic ''[[Sword of Honour]]'' (1952, 1955, 1961) trilogy. [[William F. Buckley]] described him as "the greatest English novelist of the century."

==Early Life==

Evelyn Waugh was the son of Arthur Waugh, a publisher, and the brother of Alec Waugh, a popular novelist. Raised in Hampstead, he attended Sherborne public school and Hertford College, [[Oxford]]. While at college, he drank heavily and studied rarely. His experience at Oxford later inspired the early sections of ''Brideshead Revisited''

==Major Works==

Waugh first achieved fame with ''Decline and Fall'', an uproarious satire set among London's snobbish elite, before confirming his status with the similarly witty ''Vile Bodies'' and ''Scoop''. The novels represented upper- and middle-class England as solipsistic, trivial and heartless, but a mournful quality was detectable in the fine prose. At the end of the Second World War, in ''Brideshead Revisited'', Waugh confirmed his sincere conversion to Catholicism and his growing political conservatism with a tale set among a doomed aristocratic family. Made into an iconic ITV television series in 1981, the book sought, in his own words, to demonstrate the application of "divine grace". Waugh later came to see Brideshead as somewhat over-florid in style and the later ''Sword of Honour'' trilogy, a story of the war, was a considerably drier and less lyrical piece of work.

==Later Years==

In the later years of his life, Waugh became ever more conservative. He famously complained that, despite his having repeatedly voted for the Conservative Party, "they have never put the clock back a single second". Evelyn Waugh died at his home in Combe Florey, Somerset in 1966.

Howard Hawks

Micheldene:

Howard Hawks (May 30, 1896 – December 26, 1977) was an American film director. A film-maker of extraordinary versatility, he was responsible for such durable classics as ''His Girl Friday'' (1940), ''The Big Sleep'' (1946) and ''Red River'' (1948).

==Early Life==

Hawks led an itinerant early life. Born in Indiana, he later moved with his parents to Wisconsin, before settling in California. Following service in the air force during the First World War, he worked as a racing driver, a pilot and an aeronautical designer. These experiences resurfaced in his popular films.

==Career as Director==

Hawks directed eight silent films, but he really came of age with the advent of sound. From the start he demonstrated a sure touch for dialogue in such films as ''Bringing Up Baby'' (1938) and ''Sergeant York'' (1941). A political conservative, he never won a best director Oscar, but did receive an honorary Academy Award in 1975. Hawks's films do celebrate the strong man, but also offer strong roles for favored actresses such as [[Katharine Hepburn]] and [[Lauren Bacall]]. He died at his home in Palm Springs in 1977.
