J.M.G. Le Clezio - Affinités électives Une émission proposée par Francesca Isidori <br /> <br /> <br (More) Une émission proposée par Francesca Isidori <br /> <br /> <br />J.M.G. Le Clézio est né dans une famille d’origine mauricienne. Reconnu dès son premier roman, Le Procès verbal (prix Renaudot, en 1963), il est l’auteur d’une trentaine d’ouvrages, dont quelques essais. Son oeuvre est marquée par trois moments : les débuts, proches d’écrivains comme Sartre ou Butor ; une émancipation dont témoignent des livres de voyageur et enfin le recours à des éléments autobiographiques. <br />Le Clézio rejette aussi bien l’héritage des Lumières que la culture urbaine, pour leur privilégier une approche sensible, empreinte de pensée magique ou orientaliste. Soucieux d’une enfance à écouter, il écrit plusieurs récits pour la jeunesse. Le prix paul Morand a récompensé en 1994, l’ensemble de son oeuvre. <br /> <br />Affinités électives - France Culture <br /><a class="link" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.radiofrance.fr/chaines/france-culture2/emissions/affinites/fiche.php?diffusion_id=42544">http://www.radiofrance.fr/chaines/france-culture2/emissions/affinites/fiche.php?diffusion_id=42544</a> (Less)
J.M.G. Le Clézio, Nobel prize winner, 2008! Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio receiving the 2008 Nobel literarure prize from the hands of his (More) Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio receiving the 2008 Nobel literarure prize from the hands of his majesty, the king of Sweden. December 10th, 2008.
Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio, who has been writing since the age of 7, better known as J. M. G. Le Clézio (born 13 April 1940) is a Franco-Mauritian novelist. The author of over forty works, he was awarded the 1963 Prix Renaudot for his novel Le Procès-Verbal and the 2008 Nobel Prize in Literature.
Le Clézio was born in the Riviera city of Nice to a Mauritian doctor with British citizenship and a Mauritian mother. His ancestors emigrated from Brittany to the île Maurice—french for Mauritius—in the 18th century. During World War II, the family was separated, his father being unable to join his wife and children in Nice. Le Clézio moved with his family at age 8 to Nigeria where his father served as a surgeon in the British army.
After studying at University of Bristol in England from 1958 to 1959, he finished his undergraduate degree at Nice's Institut détudes littéraires. After several years spent in London and Bristol, he moved to the United States to work as a teacher. In 1967 he served the French military in Thailand, but was quickly expelled from the country for protesting against child prostitution and sent to Mexico to finish his military obligation. From 1970 to 1974, he lived with the Embera-Wounaan tribe in Panama.
Le Clézio earned a master's degree with a thesis on Henri Michaux from the University of Provence in 1964, and wrote a doctoral thesis in 1983 on Mexicos early history for the University of Perpignan (he is a specialist on Michoacán). He has been married since 1975 to Jémia, who is Moroccan, and has three daughters (one by a first marriage). Since the 1990s they have divided their residence between Albuquerque, New Mexico, Mauritius, and Nice.
He has taught at a number of universities around the world. A frequent visitor to South Korea, he taught French language and literature at Ewha Womans University in Seoul for two semesters in 2007 and 2008.
Le Clézio has been writing since age seven; his first work was a book about the sea. After majoring in French literature, he became well-known at age 23 with the publication of his first novel Le Procès-Verbal (The Interrogation), which was shortlisted for the Prix Goncourt and for which he was awarded the Prix Renaudot in 1963. Since then he has published more than thirty-six books, including short stories, novels, essays, two translations on the subject of Native American mythology, prefaces and reviews as well as contributions to collective publications. He is also the author of several children's books.
The prize amount is 10 000 000 SEK, about 1.4 million us dollars. The winner also receives a gold medal and a Nobel diploma and is invited to give a lecture during "Nobel Week" in Stockholm; the highlight is the prize-giving ceremony and banquet on December 10. (Less)
