Autorenporträt
Alice Meynell (1847-1922) was an English poet, essayist, and editor whose literary contributions bridged the Victorian and modernist eras. Often celebrated for her lyrical prosody and thoughtful contemplation of nature and humanity, Meynell began her writing career in the later part of the 19th century. Born Alice Christiana Gertrude Thompson in Barnes, London, she was exposed to a rich intellectual environment from a young age, which greatly influenced her literary career. Meynell's poetic prowess is showcased in works such as 'Preludes' (1875), where her sonnets and lyrics capture the complex interplay of spiritual and physical realms. Her essays reflect a wide range of interests, from art criticism to social commentary. 'The Children' (1913), provides nuanced observations on childhood and the innocence and potential embodied by the young, tactfully woven into her broader themes of beauty and moral reflection. Aside from her literary contributions, Meynell took on the role of an editor, alongside her husband Wilfrid Meynell, contributing significantly to the periodical 'The Pen'. Her body of work and editorial leadership earned her respect in literary circles, and she became a prominent figure amongst the literary elite of her time. Meynell's writings continue to draw scholarly attention for their elegant style and the manner in which they reflect the transition of English literature into the modern age.
