E. R. Braithwaite

    27. jún 1912 – 12. december 2016

    E.R. Braithwaite bol autor, ktorý sa vo svojich dielach venoval spoločenským podmienkam a rasovej diskriminácii. Jeho tvorba často čerpala z osobných skúseností, najmä z prekážok, ktorým čelil ako príslušník etnickej menšiny, čo ho viedlo k odklonu od vedy k literatúre a vzdelávaniu. Prostredníctvom svojich autobiografických románov ponúkol pohľad do života učiteľov a sociálnych pracovníkov a reflektoval výzvy spojené s integráciou a rovnosťou. Jeho literárny odkaz spočíva v úprimnom zobrazení spoločenských nerovností a v podpore porozumenia a ľudských práv.

      The all-time Classic schoolroom drama - as relevant as today's headlines ... He shamed them, wrestled with them, enlightened them, and - ultimately - learned to love them. Mr. Braithwaite, the new teacher, had first to fight the class bully. Then he taught defiant, hard-bitten delinquents to call him "Sir," and to address the girls who had grown up beside them in the gutter as "Miss". He taught them to wash their faces and to read Shakespeare. When he took all forty-six to museums and to the opera, riots were predicted. But instead of a catastrophe, a miracle happened. A dedicated teacher had turned hate into love, teenage rebelliousness into self-respect, contempt into into consideration for others. A man's own integrity - his concern and love for others - had won through. The modern classic about a dedicated teacher in a tough London school who slowly and painfully breaks down the barriers of racial prejudice, this is the story of a man's integrity winning through against the odds.
