Autorenporträt
Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) was born into a middle-class family in London. He dropped out of art school to work as a journalist. For the rest of his life most of his work appeared first in periodicals, including his own publication, G. K.'s Weekly, The Illustrated London News, The Daily News, and many others. His collected works are expected to run to fifty volumes, with most of the collections containing as many as three separate books, and each averaging about six hundred pages. Since his death in 1936, an inquiry into his case for canonization by the Roman Catholic is now underway. Arthur Livingston is an adjunct professor of English literature at Regent University and co-founder of the oldest continuously meeting chapter of the G. K. Chesterton Society in the United States. He has also written poetry for fifty-five years.
