	The Good Earth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Good Earth is a novel by Pearl S. Buck, first published in 1931, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for the Novel in 1932.
		However, the wealth of the family is tied to the harvests of Wang Lung's land - the good earth of the novel.
		Wang Lung prospers with the earth, and eventually becomes a man of prosperity, with his rise mirroring the downfall of the Hwang family, who lose their connection to the land.

	Literature:The Good Earth
		When her second novel, The Good Earth, was published in 1931, Pearl Buck became famous throughout the world for her moving story of the joys and tragedies of the Chinese peasant farmer Wang Lung and his family.
		The Good Earth was published in 1931, and in 1935 republished as a one-volume trilogy entitled House of Earth with its sequels Sons (1933), and A House Divided (1935).
		Seasons of good harvests are punctuated by occasional bad years, due to a heavy flood, a severe winter freeze, and a scourge of locusts.

	From the Good earth to the New Earth
		If we adopt the Hebrew chronology, the date of the destruction of the Good earth by the Flood would be 2348 BC, because Christ is believed to be born 4 BC, and Creation would be dated 4004 BC (this is the famous Ussher chronology).
		Fifth, the earth's crust is not a single shell, but is broken into at least a dozen major pieces ('plates') and these points of separation are characterized by volcanic activity.
		Both these events were major earth events that involved the breakup of the earth's crust with terrific force, the fluidization of the rocks beneath and the slippery movement of the pieces at great speed propelled by the forces of separation.

	DVD Savant Review: The Good Earth
		Good times and a growing family are shown in images of Wang Lung's first-born son playing in the harvested wheat as it is being milled.
		The Good Earth is a good picture to toss up at PC folk who can't stand seeing anything portrayed in terms unacceptable to modern attitudes.
		The Good Earth doesn't exactly end in laughter but it does shift the tone of the story -- the locust battle not only brings Wang Lung back "down to Earth," it inspires him to heal his differences with his sons and his old friend Ching (Ching Wah Lee).

		In The Good Earth she presents a graphic view of a China when the last emperor reigned and the vast political and social upheavals of the twentieth century were but distant rumblings for the ordinary people.
		The Good Earth is an excellent book, deserving of the acclaim it has received through the years and surely deserving of the Pulitzer Prize it won in 1932.
		The Good Earth is also an Improbable Story, as common sense would suggest that the first-person account of a male Chinese farmer told by an American woman "shouldn't work." Neither should the dialogue style, which defies description.

	The Good Earth (1937) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		In the 30s and 40s, MGM had a penchant for (then) contemporary Chinese-oriented stories ('The Son-Daughter', 'Dragon Seed', 'Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo', etc.), and whether this was a preference, or whether there were just a lot of Chinese-design sets to keep occupied at the studio, the results were strangely moving.
		Aside from the oft-mentioned attributes of acting, photography and special effects, a major element in 'The Good Earth' is the score.
		There is no doubt that fine actors like Philip Ahn should have gotten lead roles in pictures like 'The Good Earth', but at least we can enjoy them in supporting roles which carry a lot of weight in their own right.

		He goes into the kitchen that is made of straw and the earth from the fields, and carefully fills the cauldron with water.
		The Old Mistress tells Wang Lung that the woman came to the great house as a child because her parents, who had come from a northern city called Shantung, sold her during a year of famine.
		Soon, they reach the temple to the earth, a temple that Wang Lung's grandfather made from bricks and tiles.

		This sequence is continued (fill, coil, tamp, barbed wire), using one chain compass to control the diameter of a coil and a second chain-compass — fixed to the foundation, inside the house-- to regulate the height of each, diminishing coil.

		Pearl Buck (1892-1973) wrote THE GOOD EARTH in three months, based on her observations of Chinese life and culture while she lived in China as the daughter of American missionaries.
		Buck understands its origins and its importance to the Chinese, but it is clear that when O-lan, herself risen from poverty and therefore with unbound feet, decides to bind the feet of her daughter, the family has truly succumbed to the debased values of the wealthy.
		THE GOOD EARTH won the Pulitzer Prize when it was published, and Buck received the Nobel Prize in 1938, largely on the strength of this powerful novel.

		It was the Ur-Oprah novel, and it was only a matter of time before Oprah herself would gather The Good Earth to her bosom and make it a 21st-century bestseller.
		In fact, Waiting, which strongly recalls The Good Earth in many ways, is a magisterial example of how to do this kind of book right: invest characters with competing dramatic motives, and above all underplay the melodramatic aspects of the story.
		In The Good Earth, by contrast, it's just Wang Lung against the Universe, and everything that happens to him is Portentous.

		Buck received the 1938 Nobel prize for a body of work which included The Good Earth (1931) and the twin biographies of her missionary parents; the gatekeepers charged that she couldn’t compare with William Faulkner in the modernist values of stylistic complexity, irony, and moral ambiguity.
		The Good Earth presents a vivid description of small family farm life, though it is curiously lacking in detailed description of just what it is that Wang Lung and his family do besides hoe.
		In The Good Earth, the feminism is complicated.

		Over the years, their life together is threatened by starvation, locusts, uncontrollable mobs, greed, and lust, but the land proves to be their anchor, steadying them in times of trouble and reminding them of what's really important.
		As a result, The Good Earth may seem quaint and old-fashioned to contemporary viewers (there's also the fact that you can pick out all of the main characters because they're the only ones played by Caucasian actors, but that's a different discussion altogether), but it's a classic for good reason.
		The Good Earth may not have succeeded on the same scale as Gone with the Wind, but as an example of old Hollywood's style and values, it remains a landmark film.

	DVD Verdict Review - The Good Earth
		Going into The Good Earth, I was not looking forward to watching a movie set in China featuring almost exclusively white actors.
		Although it claims to be a story of China, the drought and locust plague would have struck close to home for an American audience during the depression.
		While The Good Earth doesn't look like it was made in the past decade, it has some sequences that were so well produced that I can't tell how they managed it with the technology of the time.

	Saving the Good Earth
		THE "inland empire" is one name for the twenty-seven states drained by the river system that stands like a great tree in the center of a map of this country, its roots in the Gulf of Mexico, its topmost twigs across the Canadian border.
		If mankind cannot devise and enforce ways of dealing with the earth which will preserve this source of life [the soil] we must look forward to the time—remote, it may be, yet clearly discernible—when our kind, having wasted its greatest inheritance, will fade from the earth because of the ruin it has accomplished.
		The extent of our reckless destruction of the soil is revealed by Erosion Service estimates, which reveal that 3 billion tons of good earth are washed out of fields, pastures and temporarily idle land every year.

		To those who say that going organic, using alternative power sources, providing living wages for workers, and eliminating waste (all of which Fetzer does) are nice, fuzzy goals that don't make financial sense, Dolan simply points to his own success in a tough industry.
		The wine business is one of the most competitive on earth: Fetzer dukes it out in a market crowded with nearly 3,000 wineries in the United States alone, while fighting older, more established European labels and trying to hold off upstart Australian and Chilean brands.
		The results of the experiment convinced Dolan that years of applying chemical pesticides and fertilizers had stripped the soil of its richness and that the resulting dull grapes were affecting the quality of Fetzer's wine.

		Photosynthesis helps cool the atmosphere by absorbing carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and it is a critical factor to consider in forecasting climate change and global warming [see "Heat Exchange," by Robert Ehrlich, page 58].
		Every eight days for the years 2001 and 2002, NASA combined land-based data with data from Terra and Aqua, two Earth-orbiting satellites, to generate composite maps of the world's "net primary production" of carbon dioxide--the amount absorbed during photosynthesis, minus the amount given off during respiration.
