Alfred Nobel

Alfred Nobel

Alfred Nobel, the great Swedish inventor and industrialist, was a man

on many contrasts. He made a fortune but lived a simple life, he was

cheerful in company but said in private. A lover of mankind, he never had a

family or wife to love him. He was a patriotic son of his native land and

he died on foreign soil. He invented dynamite, to improve the peacetime

industries of road mining and road building, but he saw it used as a weapon

of war to kill and injured his fellow man. During his life he often felt he

was useless. He was world famous for his works he was never personally well

known, for throughout his life he avoid publicity. But since his death his

name brought fame and glory to others.

He was born in Stockholm on October 21, 1833 but moved to Russia with

his parents in 1842, where his father made a strong position for himself in

the engineering industry. Most of the family returned to Sweden in 1859,

where Alfred rejoined them in 1863, beginning his own study of explosions

in his father’s laboratory. He had never been to school or university but

had studied privately and by the time he was twenty he was a skillful

chemist and excellent linguistics, speaking Swedish, Russian, German,

French and English. He builds up over 80 companies in 20 different

countries.

But Nobel’s main concern was never with making money on scientific

discoveries. In youth he had taken a serious interest in literature and

psychology. He was always generous to the poor. His greatest wish was to

see an end of wars and thus peace between nations. His famous will, in

witch he left money to provide prizes for outstanding work in Physics,

Chemistry, Physiology, Medicine, Literature and Peace.
