Autorenporträt
Ellis Wynne (1671–1734) was a Welsh clergyman whose contribution to Welsh literature is most notably encapsulated in his work 'The Sleeping Bard; Or, Visions of the World, Death, and Hell' (original Welsh title: 'Gweledigaetheu Y Bardd Cwsc'), first published in 1703. Wynne's allegorical masterpiece is recognized for its vivid depiction of human folly and vice through the lens of a dream vision, a literary device that traces back to medieval traditions. While the book retains a notable presence in Welsh cultural history, its reach extended beyond local boundaries through translations, allowing a wider audience to appreciate Wynne's moral and philosophical insights. As an author, Wynne's literary style is marked by intricate wordplay and a deep understanding of human nature, making 'The Sleeping Bard' a significant work of Welsh moralist literature. Beyond his contributions as a writer, Wynne served as a respected cleric within the Church of Wales, reflecting the religious and ethical undercurrents evident in his written work. His influence persisted posthumously, as his seminal book continued to be printed and studied, securing Wynne's position as a cornerstone of Welsh literary heritage.
