Autorenporträt
Thomas Nelson Page (1853-1922) was an American writer and lawyer renowned for his depiction of Southern plantation life. Born in Hanover County, Virginia, to an elite planter family, Page's upbringing amidst the remnants of the antebellum South palpably influenced his literary work. Often criticized for his idealistic portrayal of the Old South and the Lost Cause of the Confederacy, Page's prose nonetheless offers valuable insights into the post-Civil War Southern mentality. 'Mam' Lyddy's Recognition' is among his lesser-known works, yet it still embodies his characteristic themes of Southern honor, tradition, and racial paternalism. Page attended Washington College (now Washington and Lee University), where he nurtured his affinity for storytelling. His literary career blossomed with the publication of his collection 'In Ole Virginia: Marse Chan and Other Stories' (1887), which cemented his position as a key contributor to local color literature. Though his romanticized version of the South has been subject to substantial critique, his works are exemplary resources for understanding the narrative techniques and cultural attitudes of his era. Page's narrative style, often suffused with nostalgia and a vivid portrayal of dialect, renders his stories both a product of their times and a document of the transformation of Southern society. An exemplar of late 19th-century Southern literature, his collection of stories, including 'Mam' Lyddy's Recognition, provides a window into the complexities and contradictions that define America's historical memory of the Confederacy and its aftermath.
