About
Elias Canetti was born in Ruse, Bulgaria. He was an English novelist and playwright. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1981, "for writings marked by a broad outlook, a wealth of ideas and artistic power". He gained a degree in chemistry from the University of Vienna in 1929, but never worked as a chemist. He is known chiefly for his celebrated trilogy of autobiographical memoirs of his childhood and of pre-Anschluss Vienna, for his modernist novel Die Blendung, and for Crowds and Power, a study of crowd behaviour as it manifests itself in human activities ranging from mob violence to religious congregations.
