Raden Ajeng Kartini was born to a noble

java Indonesia. The condition of her family
afforded Kartini the opportunity to go to a Dutch
school. At the age of 6. The school opened her eyes

 Alfred Bernhard Nobel, a Swedish inventor
and philanthropist, bequeathed most of his vast
fortune to a trust that he designated as a fund from
which annual prizes could be awarded to the
individuals and organizations that had achieved
through invention or discovery that which would
have the greatest benefit to humanity in a particular
year. According to the legend, Nobel's death had
been erroneously reported in a newspaper, and the
focus of the obituary was the fact that Nobel had
invented dynamite. He rewrote his will in 1895,
thereby establishing, with the original amount of
nine million dollars, the Nobel Foundation as the
legal owner and administering agent of the funds,
and instituting the prizes that are named after him.
Statutes to govern the awarding of the prizes were
written, along with guidelines for operating
procedures. Five years after Nobel's death, the first
five prizes, worth about forty thousand dollars each,
were to be awarded.
Originally the five classifications
for outstanding contributions designated
Nobel's will included chemistry, physics,
physiology or medicine, literature, and international
peace. These prizes have been administered
continually by the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm
since they were first awarded in 1901. In 1969, a
sixth prize, for accomplishments in the field of
economics and endowed by the Central Bank of
Sweden, was added. Candidates for the prizes must
be nominated in writing by February 1 of each year
by a qualified and recognized authority in each of
the fields of competition. Recipients in physics,
chemistry, and economics are selected by the Royal
Swedish Academy, whereas recipients in peace are
chosen by the Norwegian Nobel Committee
appointed by Norway's parliament. With the King
of Sweden officiating, the prizes are usually
presented in Stockholm on December 10, the
anniversary of Nobel's death. The value, fame, and
prestige of the Nobel Prizes have continued to grow.
Today the prize includes a medal, a diploma, and a
cash award of about one million dollars.

Universally acclaimed as America's greatest
playwright, Eugene O'Neill was born in 1888 in the
heart of the theater district in New York City. As
the son of an actor he had early exposure to the
world of the theater. He attended Princeton
University briefly in 1906, but returned to New
York to work in a variety of jobs before joining the
crew of a freighter as a seaman. Upon returning
from voyages to South Africa and South America,
he was hospitalized for six months to recuperate
from tuberculosis. While he was recovering, he
determined to write a play about his adventures on
the sea.
He went to Harvard, where he wrote the one-
act Bound East for Cardiff It was produced in 1916
in
on Cape Cod by the Provincetown Players, an
experimental theater group that was later to settle in
the famous Greenwich Village theater district in
New York City. The Players produced several more
of his one-acts in the year’s between15 1916-1920.
With the full-length play Beyond the
Horizon, produced on Broadway in 1920, O'Neill's
success was assured. The play won the Pulitzer
Prize for the best play of the year. O'Neill was to be
awarded the prize again in 1922, 1928, and 1957
for Anna Christie, Strange Interlude, and Long
Day's Journey into Night. Although he did not
receive the Pulitzer Prize for it, Mourning Becomes
Electra, produced in 1931, is arguably his most
lasting contribution to the American theater. In
1936, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature.
O'Neill's plays, forty-five in all, cover a wide
range of dramatic subjects, but several themes
emerge, including the ambivalence of family
relationships, the struggle between the sexes, the
conflict between spiritual and material desires, and
the vision of modem man as a victim of
uncontrollable circumstances. Most of O'Neill's
characters are seeking meaning in their lives.
According to his biographers, most of the characters
were portraits of himself and his family. In a sense,
his work chronicled his life.
