Read the following excerpt from William Faulkner's Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech.
I feel that this award was not made to me as a man, but to my work-a life's work in the agony and sweat of the
human spirit, not for glory and least of all for profit, but to create out of the materials of the human spirit
something which did not exist before.
According to Faulkner, who or what is the true recipient of the Nobel Prize?
Faulkner, himself
the human spirit
humanity as a whole
