STOCKHOLM, Sweden-Italian
poet Eugenio Montale was
awarded the Nobel Prize for
Literature yesterday by a 15-
member body reported sharply
split until the final vote be-
tween Montale and American
novelist Saul Bellow.
Montale wrote of love, soli-
tude and the Mediterranean and
drew on the language of Dante
in devoloping a unique style in
modern Italian poetry.
THE 79-YEAR-OLD Milan
poet, a personally shy man, said
he was "overwhelmed" and that
the award made his life, "which
was always unhappy, less un-
happy."
The 60-year-old Bellow, vaca-
tioning in Israel, said: "It's
very nice that Eugenio Montale
won the Nobel prize. I'm not
disappointed. There's plenty of
time to win it yet."
Montale was long championed
within the Nobel-awarding Swe-
dish Academy by its oldest
member and former permanent
secretary, 91- year - old Anders
Osterling, a poet and personal
friend of Montale.
USUALLY INFORMED sourc-
es said the academy was split
right up to the final vote-tak-
ing, but that they did not have
figures either on the split or
the final vote.
However, younger literary crit-
ics in Stockholm said the choice
of Montale over the 60-year-old
Bellow was a "typical conserva-
tive compromise choice out of
reverence to Osterling and mer-

its only a shrug of the shoul-

The Swedish Academy said
Montale had been awarded the
$138,000 prize for "his distinctive
poetry which, with great artist-
ic sensitivity, has interpreted hu-
man values under the sign of
an outlook on life with no illu-
sions."
The citation also stated there
was a negativism in his poetry
"based not on misanthropy but
on an indelible feeling for the
value of life and the dignity of
mankind."
According to the New York
Public Library, four volumes of
Montale's poetry are published
in English translation. They are
"The Butterfly of Dinard,"
"Provisional Conclusions," "Se-
lected Poems," and "Xenia."
