John Milton
1608 - 1674 One of the greatest poets of the English language, best-known for his epic poem PARADISE LOST (1667). Milton's powerful, rhetoric prose and the eloquence of his poetry had an immense influence especially on the 18th-century verse. Besides poems, Milton published pamphlets defending civil and religious rights. John Milton was born in London. His mother Sarah Jeffrey, a very religious person, was the daughter of a merchant sailor. His father, also named John, had risen to prosperity as a scrivener or law writer - he also composed music. The family was wealthy enough to afford a second house in the country. Milton's first teachers were his father, from whom he inherited love for art and music, and the writer Thomas Young, a graduate of St Andrews University. At the age of twelve Milton was admitted to St Paul's School near his home and five years later he entered Christ's College, Cambridge. During this period, while considering himself destined for the ministry, he began to...

Braulio Arenas lived most of his youth in the north of Chile, moving in his teens to Talca to study.

André Gide
Né le 22 novembre 1869 à Paris, André Gide est le fils unique de Paul Gide, professeur de droit, et de Juliette Rondeaux, riche bourgeoise d\'origine normande. «Né à Paris, d’un père uzétien et d’une mère normande, où voulez-vous, monsieur Barrès, que je m’enracine? J’ai donc pris le parti de voyager.» À la mort de son père, Gide n\'a que onze ans. Il est donc élevé par sa mère dans une atmosphère de rigueur morale qu\'on a dit castratrice, entouré presque exclusivement de femmes. Il épousera Madeleine Rondeaux, sa cousine de Rouen, en 1895. Dégagé de tout souci financier grâce à sa fortune personnelle, Gide s\'oriente très tôt vers une carrière littéraire dont ses premiers échecs ne le détournent pas les Cahiers d\'André Walter (1891), publié à compte d\'auteur: il se déclare soucieux de produire une œuvre qui assure sa postérité plus que sa gloire immédiate. Après Paludes (1895), Gide se moque des symbolistes et de lui-même, il publie les Nourritures terrestres (1897). Ce livre...

WWWilliam Wordsworth
William Wordsworth was born on April 17, 1770 in Cockermouth, Cumberland, in the Lake District. His father was John Wordsworth, Sir James Lowther\'s attorney. The magnificent landscape deeply affected Wordsworth\'s imagination and gave him a love of nature. He lost his mother when he was eight and five years later his father. The domestic problems separated Wordsworth from his beloved and neurotic sister Dorothy, who was a very important person in his life. With the help of his two uncles, Wordsworth entered a local school and continued his studies at Cambridge University. Wordsworth made his debut as a writer in 1787, when he published a sonnet in The European Magazine . In that same year he entered St. John\'s College, Cambridge, from where he took his B.A. in 1791. During a summer vacation in 1790 Wordsworth went on a walking tour through revolutionary France and also traveled in Switzerland. On his second journey in France, Wordsworth had an affair with a French girl, Annette...
