Autorenporträt
Samuel Butler (1835 - 1902) was an iconoclastic English author of a variety of works. Two of his most famous works are the Utopian satire Erewhon and the semi-autobiographical novel The Way of All Flesh, published posthumously. He is also known for examining Christian orthodoxy, substantive studies of evolutionary thought, studies of Italian art and works of literary history and criticism. Butler made prose translations of the Iliad and Odyssey that remain in use to this day.
