Stephen Crane Stephen Crane's life was restless and uneven and intensely American. Born in Newark, New Jersey, the fourteenth child of a Methodist pastor, he was the typical American boy, playing baseball, boxing, and hunting. In college he became the youngest captain and the best shortstop the Syracuse University baseball ever had. His mother, who supported the family after her husband's death, died when Stephen was eighteen, and for the next five years he lived in New York and nearly starved. The Bowery slums and a medical students' boardinghouse were his alternating surroundings while freelancing his way to a literary career. His first novel, Maggie: A Girl of the Streets , was about the people he saw there. Publishers would have none of it: it was "too honest." So Crane borrowed money to have it printed himself, sold it on newsstands at fifty cents a copy, and at the end of a year had disposed of fewer than a hundred copies. Not until The Red Badge of Courage was published in 1895 did Stephen Crane reach success. Though he was born six years after the Civil War ended, Crane was widely praised by veterans for his uncanny power to imagine and reproduce the sense of actual combat. The editors who had formerly turned him down now hounded him for stories. Overnight the boy who often hadn't a roof over his head knew comparative security, but he spent what he earned as fast as he got it. In the best of his work, Crane shows a rare ability to shape colorful settings, dramatic action, and perceptive characterization into ironic explorations of human nature and destiny. Joseph Conrad said of "The Open Boat" that "by the deep and simple humanity of its presentation [the story] seems somehow to illustrate the essentials of life itself, like a symbolic tale." Crane's literary generation was a tragic one, also losing Frank Norris and Harold Frederick prematurely from its ranks.

Stephen Crane Biography The eldest of fourteen children, Stephen Crane moved numerous times with his family before settling in Asbury Park, New Jersey. He entered Syracuse University but preferred baseball to academics and left after one semester. With a desire to pursue journalism, Crane moved to New York City, where he worked on his first book, Maggie, A Girl of the Streets (A Story of New York) , which he published at his own expense in 1893. After his novel about the Civil War, The Red Badge of Courage (1894), was serialized in national newspapers, Crane took a job as a roving reporter for a newspaper syndicate. He traveled throughout the American West and Mexico and later covered the Cuban insurrection against Spain. In 1897 a ship he was on sank off the coast of Florida, and Crane used this experience in his story The Open Boat , which addresses the reactions of people under pressure and nature's indifference to humanity's plight. That same year, deeply in debt, he moved to England, where he became seriously ill with tuberculosis. He increased his writing schedule in an attempt to make money, drafting thirteen stories and publishing his second volume of poetry, among other works, but his health failed him. Crane died at the age of twenty-eight, having produced enough articles, stories, novels, and poems to fill a twelve-volume set. Explorations The Blue Hotel (1898) has strong similarities to London's To Build a Fire and to other tales from the heyday of literary naturalism. We have protagonists (men, as usual) in extreme or exotic conditions, making terrible and costly discoveries about themselves and perhaps about human nature. Fort Romper, Nebraska, does not exist, and, as in London's story, important characters lack names. In various ways, therefore, the tale nudges us to consider it as about something more than one isolated incident in a supremely isolated place and we have to decide if, and how, to take those hints.
