Heute vor 100 Jahren wurde die US-amerikanische Schriftstellerin Harper Lee geboren. Weltberühmt wurde sie mit ihrem 1960 erschienenen Debütroman "Wer die Nachtigall stört" ("To Kill a Mockingbird"), der Rassismus und gesellschaftliche Ungerechtigkeit im Süden der USA thematisiert und 1961 mit dem Pulitzer-Preis ausgezeichnet wurde. Giselle Ucar erinnert an Harper Lee und geht der Frage nach, wie aktuell ihr Werk heute noch ist.

Ihr Debütroman „Wer die Nachtigall stört” gewann 1961 den Pulitzerpreis. Eine Sensation. Ihre Leser warteten auf einen zweiten Roman. Doch der blieb aus. Jahrzehnte später tauchten Texte von Lee auf, die für Verwirrung sorgten. Klasen, Andrea www.deutschlandfunk.de, Kalenderblatt

Nur wenige Bücher sind in den USA so populär wie "To Kill a Mockingbird" ("Wer die Nachtigall stört") von Harper Lee. Es ist 1960 erschienen und beschreibt den ganz alltäglichen Rassismus in einer amerikanischen Kleinstadt 30 Jahre zuvor. Ein weißer Anwalt begehrt dagegen auf, in der Verfilmung von 1962 gespielt von Gregory Peck - eine amerikanische Heldenfigur. Das Buch wurde 40 Millionen Mal verkauft und brachte Harper Lee den Pulitzerpreis ein. Genau heute vor 100 Jahren wurde sie geboren. Wir blicken mit der Amerikanistin Hannah Spahn von der Freien Universität Berlin auf das Leben der Autorin und auf ihr berühmtes Buch.

Ett sekel efter hennes födelse är den amerikanska författaren Harper Lees debutroman från 1960 en nationalklenod i USA. Men själv trodde hon ingen skulle vilja läsa hennes bok. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. 2007 fick den amerikanska författaren Harper Lee ta emot presidentens frihetsmedalj av George W Bush. ”To kill a mockingbird är en roman som kommer att läsas för evigt”, sa han då. Och han verkar ha rätt.Harper Lee gav ut sin uppväxtskildring, som utspelar sig i den amerikanska södern, 1960. Snabbt blev boken, som skildrar rasism, könsfrågor och klasskillnader, både en Oscarsvinnande film och en amerikansk nationalroman. Fortfarande lär den sälja i en miljon exemplar om året. Och den anses fortfarande så provokativ att den toppar listor över de oftast förbjudna böckerna i amerikanska skolor varje år. Inte ens den omdebatterade och mycket oväntade uppföljaren har förstört romanens status.En klassiker av Lina Kalmteg. I inslaget hörs: Inspelning från mottagandet av presidentens frihetsmedalj 2007, radiointervju med Harper Lee 1964, nyhetsklipp från CNN 2015 och en dialog ur filmen ”To kill a mockingbird” med Gregory Peck.

Today's program featured a conversation with Betty Lent of the Community Players of Concord. The Players will be performing the stage adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Harper Lee, “To Kill a Mockingbird” from May 1-3 at the Concord City Auditorium. www.communityplayersofconcord.org Also, Correspondent John Leahy joined to discuss the NBA and NHL playoffs and whatever happened to the Bruins on Sunday?

In 1949, aspiring writer Nelle Harper Lee moved from her home in small-town Alabama to New York City. She was following in the footsteps of her childhood friend, author Truman Capote. Within a few years she had penned a novel of her own, and called it To Kill a Mockingbird.To Kill a Mockingbird catapulted Harper Lee to the heights of literary fame. But just as she found success, she withdrew, overwhelmed by being in the public eye, and the pressure to produce another book as good as her first. Decades would pass before anyone mentioned the possibility of her publishing again - and this time, people wondered how much of a voice she really had in the publication of her second book.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Le 15 novembre 1959, à Holcomb (Kansas), la famille Clutter est retrouvée assassinée dans sa ferme, un crime qui bouleverse l'Amérique rurale. Fasciné par l'affaire, Truman Capote quitte New York pour enquêter sur place avec Harper Lee. Il rencontre les meurtriers, Perry Smith et Richard Hickock, et s'attache à comprendre leurs motivations. De cette immersion naît un genre nouveau : le « roman de non-fiction ». Publié en 1966, In Cold Blood (« De sang-froid ») mêle enquête journalistique et écriture romanesque. Le livre connaît un succès mondial et révolutionne la littérature américaine. Mais ce chef-d'œuvre marque aussi le début du déclin personnel de Capote.

The 1960 novel “To Kill a Mockingbird” became an American classic.    The 1962 film adaptation earned 8 Oscar nominations, 3 wins, and Atticus Finch the #1 spot on AFI's 2003 list of greatest movie heroes.   And the Pulitzer Prize awarded to Harper Lee is believed to be one factor behind her failed friendship with Truman Capote.   In this fascinating podcast, we discuss the legacy of Harper Lee's “To Kill a Mockingbird,” and trace the long journey of this classic work.    What elements of Harper Lee's own life are reflected in “To Kill a Mockingbird”? What does Mary Badham, who played Scout, consider her favorite memory from filming? What role did Harper Lee play in creating Truman Capote's book “In Cold Blood,” and what caused the long-time friends to drift apart? And why has Aaron Sorkin's adaptation of “To Kill a Mockingbird” for Broadway been referred to as a ‘rethink'?   We discuss all this and more!   Thank you to Scamanda creator/investigator Nancy Moscatiello for her shout-out at the top of the episode! Be sure to check out the podcast Scamanda, available everywhere podcasts are found, along with the docuseries of the same name, exclusively on Hulu.

Joined by Richard Gerakitis, senior advisor at the YMCA of Metropolitan Atlanta and former Troutman Pepper partner, they explore how boards, committees, and leadership set the tone through accountability, transparency, and integrity. Using Atticus Finch, Tom Robinson, and Boo Radley as examples, they examine how bias can undermine even the best‑designed systems and when "moral discretion" might justify bending the rules to protect the vulnerable. The conversation also touches on emerging issues, such as AI oversight, and the critical role HR plays in culture, compliance, and risk management. Tune in for practical insights on how thoughtful governance can turn ethical challenges into opportunities for trust and long‑term stability.Troutman Pepper Locke's Labor + Employment Practice Group provides comprehensive thought leadership through various channels.

Send us a textThese three writers all wrote just one novel of renown but they were gargantuan titles. We celebrate their impact on American Literature in this episode. Harper Lee offered several writing tips centered on persistence, humility, and the importance of craft over reward. She emphasized a love for language and a dedication to writing for oneself. Key Writing Tips from Harper LeeDevelop a thick hide Write for yourself A writer worth their salt writes to please an audience of one: themselves. Writing is a self-exploratory process, an exorcism of "divine discontent," not a pursuit for external validation or monetary gain.Be a steady, slow worker Embrace the revision process Master the English sentence Write what you know and use vivid imagery Nurture the creative spirit  Fundamentally, Lee's advice was to focus on the integrity of the work and the process itself, hoping for the best but expecting nothing in return.J.D. Salinger's writing approach prioritized authenticity, a distinctive narrative voice, and emotional depth achieved through minimalist prose and realistic dialogue. His tips for writers can be distilled into the following principles: Write for yourself, first and foremostPrioritize a strong, authentic voiceEmbrace minimalism and precisionKnow your characters inside and outUse naturalistic dialogueWork with focus and disciplineRead extensivelyMargaret Mitchell's writing tips and style emphasize thorough research, relentless rewriting, and a simple, direct prose. She prioritized her creative work and was known for working methodically on a single project at a time. Key Writing TipsPrioritize writing above all elseEmbrace rewriting: She famously said, "I do not write with ease, nor am I ever pleased with anything I write. And so I rewrite". She emphasized that "Pulitzer-type writing... comes in the rewriting".Research thoroughlyWrite with simplicity and clarityFocus on the story and what mattersPlan meticulously but be flexibleWork with discipline and enduranceAvoid digressionsWork on one project at a timePersonal Habits and Style"Show, Don't Tell" (selectively)Character and dialogue-drivenGumption is keyAnswer fan mail Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Nos encanta que nos cuenten historias. Y Jesús Álvarez lleva toda la vida haciéndolo, transmitiendo emociones y momentos que nos llenaron de felicidad, o nos estremecieron. Toda la vida apareciendo en pantalla, en Televisión Española, a donde llegó siendo un pipiolo de la mano de un murciano, una de las leyendas de aquella tele en blanco y negro que ofrecía programas extraordinarios: Joaquín Soler Serrano. Cerca de las estrellas es el título de este libro publicado por Contraluz.Los ladrones de obras artísticas siempre han ejercido una rara fascinación, sean de ficción o de carne y hueso. ¿O acaso no hemos disfrutado con las aventuras de Arsène Lupin, el clásico de Maurice Leblanc? Pero en este Club no seguimos las andanzas de personajes novelescos, sino reales. Ana Trigo ha publicado el ensayo Ladrones de arte, lleno de curiosidades.En la sección de Audiolibros, Matar a un riuseñor, la novela de Harper Lee que nos presentó a un hombre inmortal, bueno, y que siempre tendrá las facciones de Gregory Peck: Atticus Finch.Y en rarezas de escritores, las manías de Hans Christian Andersen. Y sobre todo, una que lo perseguía: el miedo a ser enterrado vivo.Y además, El hechizo de Lily Dahl, de Siri Hustvedt o La viuda, de John Grisham.

What if psychic ability isn’t rare, it’s actually universal? World-renowned psychic medium and author Laura Lynne Jackson joins Danielle to explain why intuition, signs, and spiritual communication are innate gifts we all possess, and how to access them without relying on a medium. She breaks down the concept of a “team of light,” the role of creativity as divine communication, and how spirituality can make us more resilient in real life. In this episode, Laura shares: How we all have psychic and intuitive abilities Her meaning of a "team of light," which includes God energy, spirit guides, and loved ones/ancestors who have crossed. Why signs are real, specific, and co-created, not coincidences How creativity is a portal to the other side Why our spirit guides help steer us toward our highest path, not necessarily our easiest path. How failure is often a soul-level teaching tool and can be contracted for a higher purpose. Our soul relationships continue after death and often become stronger once a loved one crosses. Why we don’t have just one soulmate, multiple soul connections can appear across forms and lifetimes. That manifesting requires two overlooked steps: purge negative beliefs and restore balance before asking.

Gail Pittaway reviews The Land of Sweet Forever by Harper Lee, published by Penguin Random House.

After Harper Lee's death in 2016, previously unpublished writing was discovered in her New York City apartment. The Land of Sweet Forever includes eight new short stories from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author. Lee wrote them a decade prior to To Kill a Mockingbird and some of the stories include early versions of Atticus and Scout, the characters who made her famous. In today's episode, Here & Now's Peter O'Dowd interviews The New Yorker's Casey Cep, who edited the collection.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau and Angela are joined by comedian Derek Richards, filling in for 1/4 Black Garrett. The show begins with headlines that range from a newly discovered Harper Lee short story collection to singer Yungblud's unusual revelation about his mistaken belief in his own rock-star heritage. The focus shifts when the crew reacts to footage of New York mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani calling to “remake the state in the image of our people.” They unpack his past remarks on assimilation, his political messaging, and his reported connections to extremist figures, questioning how such rhetoric resonates in contemporary New York. The discussion widens into a candid look at city politics, cultural identity, and the media's conflicted role in both. Later, the team explores a Michigan story about a man arrested for making Halloween costumes out of his own body hair, then moves to viewer confessions involving paternity doubts, family tensions, and unexpected second acts. The night wraps with the panel sharing their most unforgettable “worst place you've ever gone” stories. Today's guests on "Normal World" are Derek Richards and Kevin Kramis.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! When Hunter and Jenny Scott bought their dream home in Rockford, Alabama, they thought they were starting a new chapter — until the house started writing one of its own.

As paranormal activity escalated, even Harper Lee, author of To Kill a Mockingbird, became intrigued by the home's murderous past. What had happened within its walls that drew both the living and the dead? And why did it seem intent on driving its new owners away?

Los empleados de la biblioteca de Don Asensio en Hoy por Hoy van de bronca en bronca. Hoy venía como invitado el escritor argentino Pedro Mairal con su nueva novela "Los nuevos" (Destino). A uno de los empleados se le ocurrió de decir que venía el autor de 'La uruguaya'  y se le recriminó porque no es un autor de una sola novela ¿Es injusto que a un autor solo se le relacione con una de sus obras? Cervantes el del Quijote, Nabokov el de Lolita, García Márquez el de cien años de soledad, Harper Lee la de Matar a un ruiseñor, Isabel Allende la de la casa de los espíritus, Cortázar el de Rayuela o como es el caso, Mairal el de la Uruguaya. El debate está servido, pero con mucho humor

This week on Movie Mistrial, we step into the courtroom—and the conscience—of America as we revisit the powerful adaptation of Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird.To Kill a Mockingbird is a timeless exploration of justice, morality, and compassion in the face of deep-rooted prejudice. Gregory Peck's portrayal of Atticus Finch is iconic, embodying integrity and quiet heroism. With its poignant storytelling and emotionally resonant themes, the film continues to educate and inspire generations.While revered for its message, some critics argue that the film's perspective—told largely through the lens of white characters—limits the depth of its portrayal of racism. Others find its treatment of complex social issues somewhat simplified by modern standards, though still significant for its time.Join us as we examine the legacy of To Kill a Mockingbird—does it still hold its place as a moral touchstone in American cinema, or has its once-revolutionary message aged into something more symbolic than searing?Connect with us and share your thoughts:Twitter: http://tiny.cc/MistrialTwitterFacebook: http://tiny.cc/MistrialFBInstagram: http://tiny.cc/MistrialInstaVisit our website, www.moviemistrial.com, for more captivating episodes and to stay up-to-date with all things movies.
