Autorenporträt
Oscar Fay Adams (1855-1919) was an American author, editor, and educator known for his contributions to the field of literary reference and poetry. Born on February 26, 1855, in Boston, Massachusetts, Adams pursued literature fervently from a young age but also showed great aptitude as an educator, serving as a private tutor for several years (Johnson, 1904). His scholarly inclination led to the production of several reference works that have aided students and researchers in the literary realm. Perhaps his most enduring work is 'A Brief Handbook of English Authors' (1881), a concise yet informative compendium providing succinct information about notable English writers (Adams, 1881). The handbook is characteristic of Adams' literary style, blending meticulous research with clear, accessible prose, thereby democratizing access to literary scholarship. Apart from his work in reference material, Adams also dabbled in poetry and compilation, contributing to the preservation of verse in works such as 'The Bishop's Ball' (1887). His efforts in literary criticism and education have cemented his place as a stalwart in American letters during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Even after his passing on August 28, 1919, Adams' legacy has continued through his scholarly works, serving as a beacon for literary enthusiasts and academics alike.
