Autorenporträt
Walter Besant (1836-1901) was an English novelist and historian, esteemed for his contributions to the literary landscape of his time. A prolific writer, Besant's storytelling was often marked by a keen sense of place and history, imbued with a passionate commitment to social issues and reform. He co-authored with James Rice before venturing into writing on his own. Among his solo works, 'Armorel of Lyonesse', a novel set in the Scilly Isles, weaves a compelling narrative that captures the imagination of its readers with a tapestry of romance and intrigue splashed against the backdrop of a vivid historical context (Besant, 1890). His literary style often included detailed descriptions and a focus on developing strong, memorable characters, capturing the essence of the Victorian era. Besant's works not only provided entertainment but also offered commentary on the social dynamics of his time, ranging from the plight of the urban poor to the role of women in society. His dedication to realistic depictions of his characters' social environments helped to shape the genre of social-problem novels in the late Victorian period. Beyond his novels, Besant took active roles in various literary societies and was instrumental in founding the Society of Authors, reflecting his advocacy for the rights and welfare of writers.
