Autorenporträt
Edgar Rice Burroughs was born in 1875 in Chicago and is best known for creating Tarzan and Barsoom (Mars). He worked in various fields, including as a soldier, cowboy, and businessman, before becoming a writer. His big break came in 1912 with Tarzan of the Apes, which launched his literary career.Burroughs' Tarzan novels were hugely popular, leading to numerous sequels and adaptations in film, TV, and comics. His works defined the adventure genre in pulp fiction and captivated readers with tales of exotic worlds. In addition to Tarzan, he created the Barsoom and Pellucidar series, blending science fiction and fantasy.Despite mixed critical reception, Burroughs became one of the most successful authors of his time, writing hundreds of novels, short stories, and articles. He died in 1950, but his legacy lives on through his characters, especially Tarzan. His influence on modern adventure storytelling and popular culture remains significant.
