Autorenporträt
Horace Walpole (24 September 1717 - 2 March 1797) was an English writer, art historian, man of letters, antiquarian, and Whig politician. His literary reputation rests on the first Gothic novel, The Castle of Otranto (1764), and his Letters, which are of significant social and political interest. He was the youngest son of British Prime Minister Sir Robert Walpole and was educated at Eton College and King's College in Cambridge.Walpole's lasting architectural creation is Strawberry Hill, the home he built in Twickenham, south west of London, which at the time overlooked the Thames. Here he revived the Gothic style many decades before his Victorian successors. This fanciful neo-Gothic concoction began a new architectural trend.
