Dịch bài

          Một trong những giải thưởng cao quý nhất cho những nhà văn, nhà soạn nhạc là giải thưởng Pulitzer. Được trao tặng đầu tiên vào năm 1927, giải Pulitzer được trao cho Ernest Hemingway, Harper Lee, John F. Kennedy,và Rodgers and Hammerstein và những cá nhân khác. Cũng như những giải thưởng nổi tiếng khác, giải thưởng này được đặt tên theo người sáng lập ra nó, Joseph Pulitzer.

          Câu chuyện của Joseph Pulitzer, cũng như những người nhập cư vào Mỹ khác, là một câu chuyện về sự gian khổ, làm việc hăng say và thành công. Sinh ra ở Hungary, Joseph Pulitzer đến Mỹ vào năm 1864. Ông muốn trở thành một phóng viên, nhưng lại bắt đầu cuộc sống ở Mỹ của mình bằng việc tham gia chiến đấu trong cuộc nội chiến Mỹ. Sau chiến tranh, Pulitzer làm việc cho một tờ báo Đức, tờ Westliche Post. Kĩ năng phóng viên của ông vô cùng tuyệt vời, và ông nhanh chóng trở thành chủ sở hữu một phần của tờ báo. Vào năm 1978, Pulitzer đã có thể tự lập ra một tờ báo cho mình. Ngay từ ấn bản đầu tiên, tờ báo đã tiếp cận đến những nguồn tin tức gây tranh cãi. Pulitzer muốn khơi gợi những độc giả trung bình, do đó ông cho in ấn những câu chuyện thú vị về những vụ bê bối và những mối dan díu.

          Cách tiếp cận này khả phổ biến hiện nay, nhưng ở thời của Pulitzer, nó còn khá là mới mẻ và khác biệt. Hướng tiếp cận này đã dẫn đến việc khám phá ra nhiều vụ tham nhũng của những người có tiếng nói. Tờ báo của Pulitzer trở nên vô cùng nổi tiếng và vẫn tiếp tục được phát hành cho đến nay. Sau khi qua đời, ông để lại 2 triệu đô-la cho trường ĐH Columbia để họ trao tặng những phần thưởng cho những nhà văn xuất sắc. Nhóm người đề cử cho giải Pulitzer được tuyển chọn rất kĩ lưỡng. Đối với phần lớn bọn họ, đạt giải Pulitzer là đỉnh cao của sự nghiệp. Nếu một nhà văn, nhà báo hay nhà soạn nhạc bạn biết đạt giải Pulitzer, bạn có thể chắc chắn rằng họ đang ở đỉnh cao của sự nghiệp.

          Sự thành công của Pulitzer khiến ông trở nên rất giàu có, do đó ông muốn trao lại một thứ gì đấy cho nghề nghiệp của mình. Trong suốt những năm sau đó, ông ấy mở ra các chương trình đào tạo cho những nhà báo, và trao tặng rất nhiều học bổng cho sinh viên báo chí. Cuối cùng, ông muốn để lại một di sản cho những nhà báo để nhắc nhở họ về tầm quan trọng của chất lượng bài viết.

Joseph Pulitzer’s story, like that of many immigrants to the United States, is one of hardship, hard work and triumph. Born in Hungary, Joseph Pulitzer moved to United States in 1864. He wanted to be a reporter, but he started his American life by fighting in the American Civil War. After the war, Pulitzer worked for the German - language newspaper, the Westliche Post. His skills as a reporter were wonderful, and he soon became a partial owner of the paper.

In 1978, Pulitzer was able to start a newspaper of his own. Right from the first edition, the newspaper took a controversial approach to new. Pulitzer wanted to appeal to the average reader, so he produced exciting stories of scandal and intrigue. Such an approach is commonplace today, but in Pulitzer’s time it was new and different. The approach led to the discovery of many instances of corruption by influential people. Pulitzer ‘paper became very famous and is still produced today.

The success of Joseph Pulitzer’s newspaper made him a very wealthy man, so he wanted to give something back to his profession. Throughout his later years, he worked to establish university programs for the teaching of journalism, and he funded numerous scholarships to assist journalism students. Finally, he wanted to leave a legacy that would encourage writers to remember the importance of quality. On his death, he gave two million dollars to Columbia University so they could award prizes to great writers.

The Pulitzer Prize recipients are a very select group. For most, winning a Pulitzer Prize is the highlight of their career. If an author, journalist, or composer you know has won a Pulitzer Prize, you can be sure they are at the top of their profession.
