    At first sight, you may consider this to be an unreasonable, fantastic idea. But I give you the reasons. The reasons are pointed below numerically:


    1. The Stipulations:All of my remaining realisable assets are to be disbursed as follows: the capital, converted to safe securities by my executors, is to constitute a fund, the interest on which is to be distributed annually as prizes to those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind. ...one part to the person who, in the field of literature, produced the most outstanding work in an idealistic direction;". Most/all literary works found on HubPages are outstanding, and they are written in an ideal direction. HubPages is full of poets, philosophers, novelists, story writers, fantasy writers, science fiction writers, etc — some of them may indeed qualify for the Nobel Prize of Literature.

    2. The Future Trend: They gave the 2016 The Nobel Prize in Literature to Bob Dylan "for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition."

    3. Implementing Digital Accreditation (via HubPages, and Its Editors): Right now, it order to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, you must be a published author. Book publication is not entirely about expression of talent/genius currently, it has a commercial/business side to it. By 2050, the Nobel Committee may choose to go entirely digital. The Swedish Academy will collaborate with HubPages editors for this. However, one may choose to publish nowadays via Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing, or other similar services and products. But the Nobel Committee requires attestation of literary work by accredited agencies — thusly, only established and well known authors get the chance to win the Nobel Prize of Literature. By collaborating with HubPages, the Nobel Prize may get rid of the burden of accredited agencies, and open its doors to everyone, including unknown and little known masters (found on HubPages online).

    4. Digital is Truly International, and Genuinely Transcends Limitations Imposed by Nationalistic Barriers: Alfred Nobel says in his will that "It is my express wish that when awarding the prizes, no consideration be given to nationality, but that the prize be awarded to the worthiest person, whether or not they are Scandinavian.” The Nobel Committee's collaboration with HubPages, being digital, will surpass national boundaries — and will become a truly global event.

    5. Benefit to Impoverished People Directly: Impoverished (but talented) poeple from impoverished countries will be benefited by the prize money.

    6. Inspiring the Young Generations: This will inspire new generations towards the beauty of literature, and awaken in them a sense of confidence to peruse careers in the literary fields.

    "Who is eligible for the Nobel Prize in Literature?

    The candidates eligible for the Literature Prize are those nominated by qualified persons (see below) who have received an invitation from the Nobel Committee to submit names for consideration. Other persons who are qualified to nominate but have not received invitations may also submit nominations. No one can nominate himself or herself.

    Qualified nominators

    The right to submit proposals for the award of a Nobel Prize in Literature shall, by statute, be enjoyed by:
    A.     Members of the Swedish Academy and of other academies, institutions and societies which are similar to it in construction and purpose;
    B.     Professors of literature and of linguistics at universities and university colleges;
    C.     Previous Nobel Laureates in Literature;
    D.     Presidents of those societies of authors that are representative of the literary production in their respective countries."

    Hiya!
    ... what is it you are suggesting here? Maybe others understand, but I don't get it.

      What I'm suggesting here is that hubbers will be given Nobel Prizes in Literature directly online, by 2050.

      For this to happen, Maven and the Nobel Prize Committee will collaborate, as NASA and SpaceX collaborate.
