    Extractions: William Dean Howells - (1837-1920) Martin's Ferry By Jeff Postow I. Personal and Professional Life William Dean Howells, an American novelist, critic, editor, and realist writer, was born on March 1, 1837, at Martin's Ferry, Belmont County, Ohio. He was one of eight children of a struggling printer and publisher, William Cooper Howells and Mary Dean Howells (Carter 13). As the Howells family traveled around Ohio with their father, from one ailing enterprise to another, Howells received little formal education (Carter 14). Although Howells received little formal education, his father supported his interest in literature and supplied Howells with works from his extensive private collection of famous authors. From reading these works, Howells taught himself Spanish and German in order to read works by Spanish and German authors (Carter 14). Howells continued his self-education as his family moved throughout Ohio. From Hamilton, Ohio, where his father edited the Intelligencer , Howells's family moved to Dayton where his father tried unsuccessfully to revitalize the ailing

    Extractions: William Dean Howells Author of well over fifty books, William Dean Howells is regarded as the "father of American realism" in theory and criticism. In practice, however, Howells frequently maintained a few features of romanticism. He was the most influential man of letters in the post civil war period in the United States. Born in small town Ohio, he was considered a Westerner when he first arrived in Boston in 1860, meeting many of the most influential writers of the times, among them Nathaniel Hawthorne, James Russell Lowell (editor-in-chief of the Atlantic ), Dr.Oliver Wendell Holmes and Walt Whitman. His background of printing, journalism, diplomacy (serving as Consul in Venice during the civil war), editor of newspapers, magazines and novels, and finally as a literary critic (and his keen ability to observe American life after returning from Italy) helped to direct his imagination. Howells also read voraciously from an early age, often reading in the original languages. (He spoke fluent German and Italian.) The novels of William Dean Howells were among those rarities in literature: they were both popular with the critics and sold extremely well. Like many writers who enjoy huge popularity, Howells later became regarded as "old-fashioned" and was unfairly and inaccurately criticized as such by influential writers of the early part of this century like H.L.Mencken and Sinclair Lewis. Howells has made a comeback among critics since the nineteen fifties, among others with Lionel Trilling and, most recently, John Updike. Most famous of his thirty four novels are:

    Extractions: When Edith Wharton was a young writer, William Dean Howells was the grand old man of American letters. As editor of Atlantic Monthly , he published one of Wharton's juvenile poems; he later praised her early writing and encouraged her to continue working. Howells was born in Ohio and largely self-educated. He was the leading proponent of literary realism, advocating truthful delineation of characters and their experience. In her autobiography, A Backward Glance , Wharton remembered how Howells had consoled her over the failure of The House of Mirth as a play: "Yeswhat the American public always wants is a tragedy with a happy ending." Augustus Saint-Gaudens was one of the most distinguished American sculptors. He is best known for his masterful monuments, such as the Sherman Monument at New York's Grand Army Plaza. His bas-relief portraits are known for their subtle characterizations and sensitive modeling. William Dean Howells, 1837-1920 with his daughter Mildred, 1872-1966
