Autorenporträt
Edward Morgan Forster, born on January 1, 1879, in Marylebone, England, was an English novelist and essayist renowned for his insightful explorations of social class and human connection. He attended King's College, Cambridge, where he became associated with the Bloomsbury Group, a collective of influential writers and intellectuals. His early novels, such as A Room with a View (1908) and Howards End (1910), established him as a keen observer of Edwardian society.In 1924, Forster published A Passage to India, a novel that delved into the complexities of British colonialism and cultural misunderstandings in India. This work garnered critical acclaim and is considered one of his masterpieces. Despite his literary success, Forster ceased publishing novels after this period, focusing instead on essays, short stories, and other writings.Forster's personal life was marked by a struggle with his sexuality in a time when homosexuality was socially unacceptable. His novel Maurice, written in 1913-1914, depicted a homosexual relationship but was published posthumously in 1971. He passed away on June 7, 1970, in Coventry, leaving behind a legacy of literature that continues to be studied and celebrated for its depth and humanity.
