The Nobel Prize in Literature-Defining a Great Book

The Nobel Prize is essential and highly valued in literature. However, the debate about the Nobel Prizes authority and criticism has always existed. This work provides a systematic summary of the criticism of the Nobel Prize in Literature and argues that the Nobel Prize is not authentic enough to define a great book from the aspect of Nationality, The Swedish Academys Authority, and Political Influences based on Alfred Nobels Will and Interpretation From The Swedish Academy. By analyzing the Nobel Prizes authority, this paper provides critical thinking for well-known institutions and Prizes for literature writings regarding the works themselves. It leads to further research on defining a great book.
