The Swedish writer Per Wastberg, one of the members of the Academy of Sweden awarded the Nobel Prize, is picturesque today, to the tv network Svt in their country, claiming that Bob Dylan is, at least, “rude and arrogant”
attacked for pretending to not be aware of the prestigious award, which was awarded in Literature, spent more than a week.Wastberg said, irrespective of its artistic quality is unquestionable, it is very regrettable the attitude of the singer-songwriter american, who did not make any comment, or is reacted after receiving the most important literary prize world, which never before had been awarded to a songwriter.
Still it is not known if the winner will come to receive his Nobel prize on 10 December. It is an unprecedented situation,” said furious the writer Wastberg.
Dylan, born as Robert Allen Zimmerman in 1941, has always been known for their attitudes dodging, from their legendary press conferences in his juvenile years, until the contact is sometimes traumatic to the fans, since 1965, when flipped to the austere folk-rock and rythm’n’blues, electric.
The same day of the announcement of the Nobel prize for Literature, the past October 13, Dylan performed a concert in Las Vegas during which not made the slightest mention of the subject, or left to transcend any particular emotion.
The concert ended with a fragment of a theme of Frank Sinatra, “Why Try To Change Me Now?” (“why try to change me now?“), which was interpreted by some as an umpteenth reference to his well-known aversion to the media, writes today the british newspaper the Guardian.
For a few hours on the official site of Dylan had appeared a fleeting reference to, “Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature” (Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature), all in capital letters, in the presentation of a new book that collects texts of poems and songs, entitled “The Lyrics 1961-2012″.
The phrase has disappeared from the site, which immediately led to fans and critics to return to speculating about the intentions of the Dylan respect of the Nobel peace prize.
The ceremony of delivery of the Nobel Prize is planned in Stockholm with the presence of the king carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden, and Dylan should give a speech during the formal act.
Still, it is remembered as in 1921, Albert Einstein declined to receive the Nobel prize for Physics and, in 1964, the philosopher and French writer, Jean-Paul Sartre, directly rejected the Literature by political convictions. (ANSA)
