Autorenporträt

Anthony Trollope (1815–1882) was a prolific Victorian novelist known for his keen observations of English social manners and an innovative writing practice—a strict routine that had him writing 250 words every 15 minutes. Trollope's narrative style often wove together the intricacies of society with the internal struggles of his characters, a technique that won him a significant readership in his time and has kept his work in the public's eye for over a century. His novel 'La Vendée' is an example of his historical works, illustrating the conflictual backdrop of the eponymous region during the French Revolution. While not as famous as his series 'The Chronicles of Barsetshire' or the 'Palliser' novels, 'La Vendée' reflects his dramatization of historical and political events through personal and human stories. Trollope's exploration of social issues, character development, and the human condition transcended the specifics of his time, earning his novels a timeless quality. Despite the initial lukewarm reception of 'La Vendée', it contributes to the broad tapestry of Trollope's social commentary and his extensive portfolio of over 40 novels, various short stories, and other works. Scholars often praise him for his psychological depth and authenticity, which render Trollope one of the English language's literary giants.
