Canadian-American author Saul Bellow 1915-2005 first became a voracious reader out of boredom while enduring a period of childhood illness. Language would continue to entertain Bellow throughout his upbringing leading to his participation in the Federal Writers' Project during the Great Depression. Bellow completed DANGLING MAN his debut novel while serving with the merchant marine in World War II. The novel follows a young man in Chicago waiting to get drafted clearly influenced by Bellow's own experiences growing up in the interwar period in Midwestern America. Bellow wrote one other novel THE VICTIM 1947 before applying and being awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship which allowed him to travel to Paris where he started work on THE ADVENTURES OF AUGGIE MARCH 1953 Bellow's most widely acclaimed work that is still considered an American literary classic. He found massive success with the two publications that followed: HERZOG which was quick to chart best-seller lists and HUMBOLDT'S GIFT which won Bellow the 1976 Nobel Prize in Literature. Despite being a frequent albeit Euro-centric traveler Bellow was not a believer in multiculturalism; his rivals included thinkers born of social movements such as feminism and post-modernism. Nonetheless his prose remains amongst the most highly regarded in 20th century literature: an illustrious career which began nearly 80 years ago with the publication of DANGLING MAN. 1401173.

1944157559New York: The Vanguard Press 1944. Sociology and poetry in Chicago First edition first printing of the author's first book inscribed by him on the front free endpaper "To Kurt & Carla Wolff affectionately Saul Bellow". One of the Wolffs has added "Chicago Ap 15 44" beneath Bellow's inscription and "Kurt & Karla Wolff Chicago Mr. 27 1944 H. Bookstore" above. This is an excellent association from Bellow to his friend and fellow writer the influential sociologist Kurt Wolff 1912-2003. They met in Chicago: Bellow was raised there and Wolff "had fallen in love with the region with the people and with the situation" quoted in Stehr while a research fellow at the Social Science Research Council in the early 1940s. Bellow wrote this book about a young Chicago man waiting to be drafted during his service with the merchant marine during the Second World War. Both Bellow and Wolff were significantly engaged in one another's disciplines: Bellow was a writer educated in sociology and Wolff a sociologist whose literary experiments Bellow encouraged. Bellow was a Canadian-born Lithuanian-Jew who had graduated from Northwestern University with an honours in anthropology and sociology the study of which had a marked influence on his literary style. Wolff was a Jewish German-born sociologist forced out of Germany by rising Naziism who recounted that "after a relatively short time in America I began to write literature in which the most important help I received was from Saul Bellow whom I got to know in Chicago in 1943". Wolff co-founded a short-lived poetic journal titled Experiment around this time and it was then that his central sociological ideas of surrender and catch "gave rise to a synthesis between sociology and poetry". He stated that "my method of imagination is neither sociological nor poetic but rather spontaneously phenomenological if I may call it that. That means the attempt to capture something as exactly as possible which is thus as you see connected to the art of poetry as much as to the appearance of nature but isn't one of the other: it's a third method". Both Wolff and Bellow shared this dedication to a "third method": in 1962 Bellow returned to Chicago as a professor on the Committee on Social Thought the goal of which was to develop multidisciplinary approaches to learning. He taught on the committee for more than 30 years. This is a significant association from the beginning of an intellectually fertile relationship. Octavo.
