Autorenporträt
John Lang (1816-1864) was an Australian-born writer and lawyer who gained prominence through his literary contributions that significantly reflect the life and culture of India during the British Raj. Notoriously remembered as one of the earliest novelists in English to have spent much of his career in India, Lang's oeuvre offers a valuable glimpse into nineteenth-century colonial life with a blend of wit and keen observation. His book, 'Wanderings in India, and Other Sketches of Life in Hindostan', showcases his talent for capturing the dynamic between the colonizers and the colonized, and elucidates the social, political, and military milieu of the period. Lang's writing is characterized by incisive satire and a narrative prowess that vividly portrays the complexities of the time. Despite the limited extent of his literary fame, scholars of postcolonial studies and Victorian literature appraise Lang's contributions for the cultural and historical insight his works provide. In 'Wanderings in India', Lang's style is refreshingly direct, offering narratives that both inform and entertain, and thus ensuring his position as a distinctive voice among the chroniclers of the British presence in India.
