After receiving a bachelor’s degree from Howard University with a major in English and a minor in classics in 1953, she earned a master’s in English from Cornell in 1955. In 1958 she married an architect from Jamaica, but they divorced in 1964. Her novels appeared regularly on the New York Times bestseller list, were featur...

In Walks a WomanS2 E5 Motherhood in Toni Morrison's BelovedIn so many ways, Toni Morrison expanded the reaches of our cultural imagination both in terms of understanding our history and exploring the intricate landscape of the human psyche through language. Beloved, Morrison’s 1987 masterpiece, alternates settings between 1850’s Kentucky and 1870’s Ohio, depicting Sethe, protagonist and former slave, isolated and dealing with trying to live on after the scarring trauma of slavery. She finds herself feeling, for instance, the complicated nostalgia for the beautiful trees of the plantation where she grew up…while those very trees were used to hang black men she knew. The reader recognizes the truth of th...

Human Voices Wake UsThe Voice of Toni MorrisonAn episode from 6/26/22: We are incredibly lucky that, in the novelist Toni Morrison (1931-2019), we had that rare thing: a great writer who also achieved great popularity with the general public.

The ForumToni Morrison: The legacy of a literary legendThe American writer Toni Morrison once said, “If there’s a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.” It was an urge which in her case yielded a rich array of novels, children’s books, plays and essays. Toni Morrison stands tall, as the first black woman of any nationality to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Celebrated for her masterpiece Beloved, she remains a towering figure, one of the most well-known and oft-taught authors of our age. Since her death in August 2019, many have been reassessing her multip...

Bildningspodden#134 Toni MorrisonToni Morrison (1931-2019) kallas ibland för USA:s nationalförfattare. Från debuten 1970 odlade hon ett författarskap som många anser hör till den moderna litteraturens allra viktigaste. I bok efter bok gestaltade Morrison på ett banbrytande sätt den afrikan-amerikanska erfarenheten och historien. Romanen var Morrisons främsta uttrycksform, men hon skrev även noveller, poesi, litteraturkritik, barnböcker och till och med ett operalibretto. 1993 tilldelades hon Nobelpriset i litteratur.
Bildningspodden ger en introduktion till Toni Morrisons rika författargärning och fördjupar sig i romanen "Älskade" (Beloved, 1987), ofta ansedd som hennes stora mästerverk och av New York Time...

Puis je me suis dit : si eux l’ont vécu, je peux bien passer quelques années à l’écrire."
