He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1911 "in appreciation of his many-sided literary activities, and especially of his dramatic works, which are distinguished by a wealth of imagination and by a poetic fancy, which reveals, sometimes in the guise of a fairy tale, a deep inspiration, while in a mysterious way they appeal to the readers' own feelings and stimulate their imaginations".

  Title: The James Bond Dossier
  Passage: The James Bond Dossier (1965), by Kingsley Amis, is a critical analysis of the James Bond novels.  Amis dedicated the book to friend and background collaborator, the poet and historian Robert Conquest.  Later, after Ian Fleming's death, Amis was commissioned as the first continuation novelist for the James Bond novel series, writing "Colonel Sun" (1968) under the pseudonym Robert Markham.  "The James Bond Dossier" was the first, formal, literary study of the James Bond character.  More recent studies of Fleming's secret agent and his world include "The Politics of James Bond: From Fleming’s Novels to the Big Screen" (2001), by the historian Jeremy Black.
  Title: Monna Vanna
  Passage: Monna Vanna (Russian: Монна Ванна ) is an unfinished opera by Sergei Rachmaninoff after a play by Maurice Maeterlinck.  Rachmaninoff had completed Act I in short vocal score, with piano accompaniment, and then he went to ask for permission to set the text in a full three-act treatment.  However, another composer, Henry Février, had by then received the rights to an operatic setting of the text.  Had Rachmaninoff proceeded to a complete operatic setting, such a work could not have been produced in European countries that were signatories to copyright laws that covered the work of Maeterlinck.  This opera could only have been produced in countries that at the time were not signatories to European copyright law, such as Russia.  Ultimately, Rachmaninoff abandoned further work on this opera and never wrote a complete setting.
