Lewe

[wysig | wysig bron]

Jeffrey Meyers is in 1939 in New York Stad gebore en het grootgeword in New York. Hy was 'n voorgraadse student aan die Universiteit van Michigan en het sy doktorsgraad aan die Universiteit van Kalifornië, Berkeley verwerf. Hy het klas gegee by die Universiteit van Kalifornië, Los Angeles (1963–65), by die Verre Ooste-afdeling van die Universiteit van Maryland in Japan (1965–66) en Tufts-universiteit (1967–71). Hierna het hy tyd spandeer aan sy skryfwerk in Londen en Málaga, Spanje (1971–75), voordat hy van 1975 tot 1992 by die Universiteit van Colorado klas gegee het. Hy was 'n besoekende professor by die universiteite van Kent en Massachusetts, Jemison-professor by die Universiteit van Alabama en Besoekende geleerde by Berkeley. Hy het drie Colorado-navorsingstoekennings (twee in 1976, een in 1988) en twee fakulteitsbeurse (1986 en 1991) gewen, sowel as 'n Huntington-biblioteek- (1971), Fulbright- (1978–79), American Council of Learned Societies- (ACLS) (1983–84) en Guggenheim-toegif (1978–79). Hy is sedert 1992 'n professionele skrywer in Berkeley, Kalifornië. In 1983 het Meyers een van 12 Amerikaners geword wat genote is van die Royal Society of Literature, en in 2005 het hy 'n toekenning in Letterkunde ontvang "ter ere van uitsonderlike prestasie" van die American Academy of Arts and Letters.

Met ingang 2018 het Meyers 54 boeke en 980 artikels oor kuns, rolprente en moderne Amerikaanse, Engelse en Europese letterkunde gepubliseer. Sy wye reeks belangstellings sluit in bibliografieë, redigering, literêre kritiek en biografieë. Hy is 'n spesialis in argiefnavorsing en het die FBI-lêer oor Ernest Hemingway,[1] die liefdesbriewe van Hemingway,[2] en literêre manuskripte deur Wyndham Lewis, Ezra Pound en Roy Campbell gepubliseer. Meyers het 33 werke in 14 tale laat vertaal en word soms na verwys as 'n "reeksbiograaf"[3] weens sy produktiewe biografiese uitset.

Sy manuskripte word gehuisves in die biblioteke van die Universiteit van Tulsa, Universiteit van Texas in Austin, Harvard-universiteit, Universiteit van Virginië, sowel as in die John F. Kennedy Presidensiële Biblioteek en die Huntington-biblioteek in Los Angeles. Hy het by 70 universiteite doseer. Hy het in dokumentêre rolprente verskyn oor Edgar Allan Poe,[4] Gary Cooper[5] en Errol Flynn,[6] sowel as in BBC-programme oor Hemingway[7] en D.H. Lawrence.[8] Hy het op televisie gesels oor sy literêre ontdekkings op CBS Morning News[9] en oor Orwell op C-Span se Booknotes.[10] In 2012 het hy die Seymour-lesings in biografie gegee by die Nasionale Biblioteek van Australië in Canberra, Melbourne en Sydney.

Literêre lof vir Meyers se Hemingway: A Biography

[wysig | wysig bron]

Anthony Powell[39] en Anthony Burgess het Meyers se Hemingway: A Biography lof toegeswaai.[40] Tom Stoppard het die werk gekies as "Beste Boek van die Jaar" in 1986.[41] In die Verenigde State het die digter James Dickey opgemerk: "Meyers has given us an extremely valuable deepening of what is quite likely to prove Hemingway's greatest work, his life."[42] Die wenner van die National Book Award, J.F. Powers, het opgemerk: "This is simply the best book there is on Hemingway, thorough, perceptive, no holds barred, highly entertaining, so good and right on the famous writer and also on the famous performer who acted from the All-American hope that what goes up may not come down, but did, in this case, tragically."[43] George Painter, die vooraanstaande biograaf van Marcel Proust, het geskryf: "I believe that Professor Meyers' Hemingway is one of the great biographies of our half-century, a masterwork in which true scholarship and creative art are so united as to become indistinguishable, and worthy to belong with Richard Ellmann's James Joyce, [Leslie] Marchand's Byron or Michael Holroyd's Lytton Strachey. Ellmann's passing has been universally mourned; but one can at least feel that the world now has a new major biographer."[44]
