Nabokov, Vladimir (Vladimirovich)
- Nabokov, Vladimir (Vladimirovich)
(22 abr. 1899, San Petersburgo, Rusia– 2 jul. 1977, Montreux, Suiza).
Novelista y crítico estadounidense de origen ruso. De familia aristocrática, tuvo institutrices inglesas y francesas. Publicó dos poemarios antes de abandonar Rusia en 1919 para ir a la Universidad de Cambridge, pero en 1925 ya se había volcado a la prosa. Entre 1919 y 1940 residió en Inglaterra, Alemania y Francia. En
Habla, memoria (1951), su excelente autobiografía, recrea su vida anterior a 1940, año en que se radica en EE.UU. A partir de
King, Queen, Knave [Rey, dama, valet] (1928), ensaya intrincados recursos estilísticos. Aunque se presentan bajo ropajes diversos, sus novelas giran principalmente en torno al problema del arte en sí, como en
Invitado a una decapitación (1938). Tanto en
The Gift [La dádiva] (1937–38) como en sus obras posteriores Nabokov ejercita frecuentemente la parodia. Entre las novelas que escribió en inglés se cuentan el polémico, bestseller
Lolita (
1955), que le reportó riqueza y fama internacional;
Pálido fuego (
1962) y
Ada o el ardor (
1969). Su obra crítica incluye una monumental traducción comentada del
Eugenio Onegin de Alexandrer Pushkin obra en 4 vol. (
1964).
