We are learning how memories of important people and events are kept alive.

Can these things be used in a bad way as well as a good way?

Alfred Nobel and his peace prizes When we hear the word ‘explosives’, it often reminds us of war. You would never really think of explosives and peace going together. But the memory of one man keeps the memory of peace alive in our minds, even though he is also remembered for dynamite, because he was the man who invented it. Perhaps you have heard of the Nobel Peace Prize without really knowing that ‘Nobel’ is the name of a man called Alfred Nobel. Alfred was Swedish, born in Stockholm on 21 October His father was an engineer. Alfred became interested in explosives which were used to blast rock, which is needed for mining and for making roads.

When Alfred was 33 years old, he invented dynamite. As inventors usually do, Alfred took out patents for his inventions in Britain and in the United States. This ensured that his method of making dynamite could not be used by other people. Fourteen years later, Alfred invented an even better explosive called gelignite.

Alfred Nobel was a peaceful man, and did not intend his invention to be used in war. He hoped that when people saw the power of the explosives they would never again want to fight in wars.But people wanted to make explosive weapons, and Alfred was successful in developing military explosives. In payment for his inventions, he made a great deal of money which was invested and turned into a huge fortune.

He must have felt sad when he realized that his work had helped people to make war more violently. He decided that he would use his large fortune to help to make the world more peaceful.

Before his death in 1896, he made arrangements that each year a prize would be awarded by the Nobel Foundation. The award would go to people who had helped others in the world and would be financed by his money. A special prize was to be given to the person or organisation who had helped towards peace in the world, as well as prizes for Literature, Medicine, Physics and Chemistry. These prizes are awarded on 10 December each year, because that is the anniversary of Alfred Nobel’s death. They are his memorial.

Alfred Nobel’s Will “The whole of my remaining realizable estate shall be dealt with in the following way: the capital, invested in safe securities by my executors, shall constitute a fund, the interest on which shall be annually distributed in the form of prizes to those who, during the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind. The said interest shall be divided into five equal parts, which shall be apportioned as follows: one part to the person who shall have made the most important discovery or invention within the field of physics; one part to the person who shall have made the most important chemical discovery or improvement; one part to the person who shall have made the most important discovery within the domain of physiology or medicine; one part to the person who shall have produced in the field of literature the most outstanding work of an idealistic tendency; and one part to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between the nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses. The prizes for physics and chemistry shall be awarded by the Swedish Academy of Sciences; that for physiological or medical works by the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm; that for literature by the Academy in Stockholm; and that for champions of peace by a committee of five persons to be elected by the Norwegian Storting. It is my express wish that in awarding the prizes no consideration whatever shall be given to the nationality of the candidates, but that the most worthy shall receive the prize, whether he be a Scandinavian or not.” Paris, the 27th of November Alfred Bernhard Nobel
