Autorenporträt
Hilaire Belloc, a French-English writer and historian, was born on July 27, 1870 and died on July 16, 1953. Belloc was also a soldier, orator, poet, sailor, satirist, and writer of letters, as well as a sailor and poet. His Catholic views had a significant influence on what he wrote. Belloc obtained British citizenship through naturalization in 1902, but he retained his French citizenship. While at Oxford, he served as President of the Oxford Union. From 1906 until 1910, he was one of the few Catholic members of the British Parliament. Belloc was known for getting into fights, and some of them lasted a long time. He was very close to and collaborated with G. K. Chesterton. George Bernard Shaw, who was friends with both Belloc and Chesterton and frequently disagreed with them, dubbed them "Chesterbelloc" because they frequently disagreed. Belloc composed everything from religious poetry to children's rhymes. His Cautionary Tales for Children were a big hit. They told stories like "Jim, who ran away from his nurse and got eaten by a lion" and "Matilda, who lied and got burned to death."
