Alfred Nobel
The man behind the Nobel Prize
A Since 1901, the Nobel Prize has been honoring men and women from all �comers of the globe for outstanding achievements in physics, chemistry, �medicine, literature, and for work in peace. The foundations for the prize were �laid in 1895 when Alfred Nobel wrote his last will, leaving much of his wealth �to the establishment of the Nobel Prize.
B Alfred Nobel was born in Stockholm on October21, 1833. His father �Immanuel Nobel was an engineer and inventor who built bridges and buildings in �Stockholm. In connection with his construction work Immanuel Nobel also �experimented with different techniques for blasting rocks. Successful in his �industrial and business ventures, Immanuel Nobel was able, in1842, to bring his �family to St. Petersburg. There, his sons were given a first class education by �private teachers. The training included natural sciences, languages and �literature. By the age of 17 Alfred Nobel was fluent in Swedish, Russian, �French, English and German. His primary interests were in English literature and �poetry as well as in chemistry and physics. Alfred’s father, who wanted his sons �to join his enterprise as engineers, disliked Alfred’s interest in poetry and �found his son rather introverted.
C In order to widen Alfred’s horizons his father sent him abroad for �further training in chemical engineering. During a two-year period Alfred Nobel �visited Sweden, Germany, France and the United States. In Pads, the city he came �to like best, he worked in the private laboratory of Professor T. J. Pelouze, a �famous chemist. There he met the young Italian chemist Ascanio Sobrero who, �three years earlier, had invented nitroglycerine, a highly explosive liquid. But �it was considered too dangerous to be of any practical use. Although its �explosive power greatly exceeded that of gun powder, the liquid would explode in �a very unpredictable manner if subjected to heat and pressure. Alfred Nobel �became very interested in nitroglycerine and how it could be put to practical �use in construction work. He also realized that the safety problems had to be �solved and a method had to be developed for the controlled detonation of �nitroglycerine.
D After his return to Sweden in 1863, Alfred Nobel concentrated on �developing nitroglycerine as an explosive. Several explosions, including one �(1864) in which his brother Kmil and several other persons were killed, �convinced the authorities that nitroglycerine production was exceedingly �dangerous. They forbade further experimentation with nitroglycerine within the �Stockholm city limits and Alfred Nobel had to move his experimentation to a �barge anchored on Lake Malaren. Alfred was not discouraged and in 1864 he was �able to start mass production of nitroglycerine. To make the handling of �nitroglycerine safer Alfred Nobel experimented with different additives. He soon �found that mixing nitroglycerine with kieselguhr would turn the liquid into a �paste which could be shaped into rods of a size and form suitable for insertion �into drilling holes. In 1867 he patented this material under the name of �dynamite. To be able to detonate the dynamite rods he also invented a detonator �(blasting cap) which could be ignited by lighting a fuse. These inventions were �made at the same time as the pneumatic drill came into general use. Together �these inventions drastically reduced the cost of blasting rock, drilling �tunnels, building canals and many other forms of construction work.
E The market for dynamite and detonating caps grew very rapidly and Alfred �Nobel also proved himself to be a very skillful entrepreneur and businessman. �Over the years he founded factories and laboratories in some 90 different places �in more than 20 countries. Although he lived in Paris much of his life he was �constantly traveling. When he was not traveling or engaging in business �activities Nobel himself worked intensively in his various laboratories, first �in Stockholm and later in other places. He focused on the development of �explosives technology as well as other chemical inventions, including such �materials as synthetic rubber and leather, artificial sill, etc. By the time of �his death in 18% he had 355 patents.
F Intensive work and travel did not leave much time for a private life. At �the age of 43 he was feeling like an old man. At this time he advertised in a �newspaper "Wealthy, highly-educated elder gentleman seeks lady of mature age, �versed in languages, as secretary and supervisor of household. " The most �qualified applicant turned out to bean Austrian woman, Countess Bertha Kin sky. �After working a very short time for Nobel she decided to return to Austria to �marry Count Arthur yon Sutrner. In spite of this Alfred Nobel and Bertha von �Suttner remained friends and kept writing letters to each other for decades. �Over the years Bertha von Suttner became increasingly critical of the arms race. �She wrote a famous book, Lay Down Your Arms and became a prominent figure in the �peace movement. No doubt this influenced Alfred Nobel when he wrote his final �will which was to include a Prize for persons or organizations who promoted �peace. Several years after the death of Alfred Nobel, the Norwegian Storting �(Parliament) decided to award the 1905 Nobel Peace Prize to Bertha von �Suttner.
G Alfred Nobel died in San Remo, Italy, on December 10, 1896. When his will �was opened it came as a surprise that his fortune was to be used for Prizes in �Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature and Peace. The executors �of his will were two young engineers, Ragnar Sohl man and Rudolf Lilljequist. �They set about forming the Nobel Foundation as an organization to take care of �the financial assets lt by Nobel for this purpose and to coordinate the work �of the Prize-Awarding Institutions. This was not without its difficulties since �the will was contested by relatives and questioned by authorities in various �countries.
H Alfred Nobel’s greatness lay in his ability to combine the penetrating �mind of the scientist and inventor with the forward-looking dynamism of the �industrialist. Nobel was very interested in social and peace-related issues and �held what were considered radical views in his era. He had a great interest in �literature and wrote his own poetry and dramatic works. The Nobel Prizes became �an extension d a fulfillment of his lifetime interests.
