White Fang (in English)
London, Jack
Synopsis "White Fang (in English)"
White Fang is a literature & fiction action and adventure classic novel written by American author Jack London in 1906. White Fang is also the name of the book's eponymous character, a wild wolf dog. The story takes place in Yukon Territory, Canada, during the 1890's Klondike Gold Rush and details White Fang's journey to domestication. White Fang is a companion novel, and thematic mirror, to London's best known work, The Call of the Wild, which is about a kidnapped, domesticated dog embracing his wild ancestry to survive and thrive in the wild. White Fang is mostly written from the viewpoint of the titular canine character, enabling Jack London to explore how animals view their world and how they view humans. In addition to exploring complex themes of morality and redemption, White Fang examines the violent world of wild animals and the equally violent world of humans. Jack London was an American novelist, journalist, and social activist. A pioneer in the then burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction, Jack London was one of the first fiction writers to obtain worldwide celebrity and a large fortune from his fiction alone.
Jack London (1876-1916), seudónimo de John Griffith Chaney, es uno de los grandes escritores estadounidenses de los albores del siglo XX. Su mundo se inspira en una interpretación muy subjetiva de la filosofía de Nietzsche y se construye a partir del principio de lucha por la supervivencia. Nacido en San Francisco, fue esencialmente un niño autodidacta que leía con avidez los fondos de la biblioteca pública. Con diecisiete años se embarcó en su primera goleta, rumbo a Japón. Tras varias experiencias como marinero y vagabundo -razón por la que también fue encarcelado-, London acudió a la Oakland High School y, posteriormente, a la Universidad de California, que tuvo que abandonar por problemas económicos. Como muchos, sufrió la fiebre del oro hasta que, finalmente, se dedicó a la escritura.
