Thomas Hardy
Thomas Hardy( 2 June 1840 – 11 January 1928) was an English novelist and poet.
A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, especially William Wordsworth.
He was highly critical of much in Victorian society, especially on the declining status of rural people in Britain, such as those from his native South West England.
While Hardy wrote poetry throughout his life and regarded himself primarily as a poet, his first collection was not published until 1898.
Initially, therefore, he gained fame as the author of novels such as" Far from the Madding Crowd"( 1874)," The Mayor of Casterbridge"( 1886)," Tess of the d' Urbervilles"( 1891), and" Jude the Obscure"( 1895).
During his lifetime, Hardy's poetry was acclaimed by younger poets( particularly the Georgians) who viewed him as a mentor.
After his death his poems were lauded by Ezra Pound, W. H. Auden and Philip Larkin.
Many of his novels concern tragic characters struggling against their passions and social circumstances, and they are often set in the semi-fictional region of Wessex; initially based on the medieval Anglo- Saxon kingdom, Hardy's Wessex eventually came to include the counties of Dorset, Wiltshire, Somerset, Devon, Hampshire and much of Berkshire, in southwest and south central England.
Two of his novels," Tess of the d'Urbervilles" and" Far from the Madding Crowd", were listed in the top 50 on the BBC's survey The Big Read.
J. Searle Dawley
James Searle Dawley (May 13, 1877 – March 30, 1949) was an American producer, director and screenwriter.
He directed 149 silent films between 1907 and 1926.
He was born in Del Norte, Colorado, and died in Hollywood, California.
Searley is best remembered for directing the Thomas Edison version of "Frankenstein" in 1910.
He reportedly referred to himself as "the first motion picture director", which was not accurate.
He worked for a while at Edison's studio, then started his own production company, being quite successful financially, although most of his films are little known today.
When critics began to regard the films of his day to be immoral, Searley became one of the founding members of the MPDA (Motion Picture Directors Association) which sought to give filmmakers who advocated good taste the power of self-censorship.
