Autorenporträt
Josephine Preston Peabody (1874-1922) was an American poet and dramatist, noted for her engagement with ancient themes, particularly those rooted in classical mythology. She was born in Brooklyn, New York, and received her education at Radcliffe College, where she cultivated her lifelong interest in literature and the arts. Peabody's literary contributions include both verse and prose, but it is 'Old Greek Folk Stories Told Anew' (1897) that distinguishes her as a skillful reteller of ancient Greek myths and legends for a modern audience. Embracing a narrative style that is both engaging and accessible, Peabody's adaptation showcases her ability to breathe new life into age-old tales, making them resonate with contemporary readers. Her reimaginations serve as a bridge between the ancient world and the education of the young, reflecting her belief in the enduring value of classical education. Peabody's artistry is marked by an elegant prose that captures the timeless essence of Greek mythological narratives. Her work has contributed significantly to the tradition of classical reception in children's literature and remains a testament to her scholarship and creative prowess.
