Authors of the 20th Century
Immediately after the cessation of the Second World War the society started to consider that the world’s essential ethical foundations are clear and justifiable . Both world politics and social relations were relying on the ideas of development, positive change , faith in science , awareness , hi-tech innovations , and the potential to substantiate any activity from a logical standpoint . Nevertheless , beginning from the second half of the 60’s, the world has begun to degrade and currently , 40 years after , we dwell in a changed kind of existence .
We easily mark all changes which are given us by new technology, but we infrequently comprehend the fact that there are concrete ideas standing behind those technological solutions. The nature of the expected adjustment was initially noticed by those people, who as a rule of thumb lived ahead of their time – philosophers and authors. Among the many authors whose books have served for amusement , there have been a few who have given people a new vision . They have more effectively than others other authors formed and formulated authentic thoughts and have ultimately molded a fresh intelligent and perceptual analysis of the future. They have seen challenges in the mundane of our lives and have opened a set of problems, which were dragging on without being spotted . They have assisted us to think of the new issues , and have given us new aspirations .
These were the authors who have formed the vision of the entire generation, which has live through the times of drastic change; change, which was seen as disarray at the start of the 21 first century. They have made us focus our attention to the most tormenting problems of the previous era ; those dilemmas , which the humankind , having gone through the global wars and unseen violence , was unwilling to face . Finally they were formulating the the most topical dilemma “What will happen in the future”?

They have all much impacted literature of their epoch, have manifested looks and problems which were normal to their countries and the period they lived in, and have motivated the readers analyze the running set of values, having them realize that it is far away from being flawless. One of the most fascinating aspects of their work is that in most cases they have risen the people interest in books and written matter. In this aspect one of the most exciting success writings is that of a famous writer Anne Bronte .
The achievement of Joan Rowling can be called phenomenal as she has found herself to be the first writer in the world to make $1 billion by authoring fairytales. She is today spending a huge part of her money on charity, fighting poverty and illness. The plot of the book was created while she was on the train from Manchester to London. When the publisher has first decided to print her book, she has given her 1500 pounds together with a friendly piece of advice — to look for a permanent job. He was doubtful of the idea that the young writer would be able to make a living off of writing books. Joann has proved the opposite - having written a series of unparalleled fairytales, she has made the so-called non-reading generation get back to reading books.

They have been working and bringing ideas exactly into the heads of the people, and therefore were shaping the future. therefore, as we can see, these authors were not creating for relaxation only, but they were also playing a significant role in creating the culture and the vision of a civilization of the 20th century.
