Autorenporträt
Charles Dudley Warner (1829-1900) was a distinguished American essayist, novelist, and non-fiction writer, as well as an influential figure in the late 19th-century literary scene. He was renowned for his shrewd wit and a keen observation of American life which he depicted through his literary works. Warner's career in literature began after resigning from law, a profession he found uncongenial. His writing echoed the social fabric of his era and often criticized societal norms with a gentle satire. One of his well-known works is 'A Little Journey in the World' (1889), which explores themes of wealth and social ambition, highlighting the intricacies of human character and the moral challenges posed by a rapidly industrializing society. Warner's literary style often reflected his humanistic approach and was notable for its clarity, humor, and thoughtfulness. Apart from his novels, Warner is also remembered for his collaboration with Mark Twain on 'The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today' (1873), which gave birth to the term 'Gilded Age' as a descriptor for the era. Warner's essays, collected in volumes such as 'My Summer in a Garden' (1871) and 'Saunterings' (1872), offer insightful commentary on various subjects, from gardening to travel, showcasing his versatility as an author. His contributions to literature and journalism were significant during his time, with his editorial role at Hartford's 'The Courant' and his involvement in the creation of the American edition of the 'Encyclopedia Britannica'. Charles Dudley Warner's legacy endures as a mirror of the social and cultural landscapes of American life in the late 1800s.
