Autorenporträt
Henry Sydnor Harrison (1880–1930) was an American novelist of the early 20th century, whose work offers a social commentary on the values and mores of his time. Harrison was born in Sewanee, Tennessee, and was known for his sharp wit and observant nature, qualities which permeated his literary output. He achieved fame through his novel 'Queed' (1911), a story that traces the social awakening of a young, self-absorbed scholar. Following 'Queed,' Harrison published 'V. V.'s Eyes' (1913), a nuanced examination of the interactions between socio-economic classes, and 'Angela's Business' (1915), which critically addressed issues of women's independence and identity in society. His signature style involved a blend of social realism and psychological insight, which he used to explore themes like personal growth, social responsibility, and the pursuit of happiness in the face of societal constraints. 'Captivating Mary Carstairs' (1911) further showcases his ability to create vibrant, multifaceted characters who must navigate both personal challenges and societal expectations. Though not as well remembered today as some of his contemporaries, Harrison's novels contributed to the discourse of American realism, reflecting both the culture and conflicts of his time. His work remains a valuable resource for scholars interested in early 20th-century American literature and culture.
