Autorenporträt

Francis Marion Crawford (1854-1909) was an American writer noted for his many novels, especially those set in Italy, and his classic tales of the supernatural. Born to a distinguished family of artists and scholars, Crawford spent a significant part of his life abroad, a cosmopolitan upbringing that informed the vivid details of foreign lands in his writing. 'Cecilia: A Story of Modern Rome' echoes his expertise in blending the romance of Italy with the intricacies of human emotion and societal intricacies. Crawford possessed a knack for crafting suspenseful plots and a distinctively florid literary style that was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His prolific output includes historical novels, such as 'Saracinesca' and 'Sant' Ilario,' which, alongside 'Cecilia,' illustrate his fascination with Italian culture and history. Crawford's narrative style often delves into psychological depth, with a particular focus on the consequences of passion and the machinations of fate. While his supernatural tales, like 'The Upper Berth,' have overshadowed some of his other work, his novels continue to be appreciated for their rich descriptions, historical authenticity, and their exploration of the human spirit. Crawford's literary contributions remain a testament to his understanding of the manifold aspects of human nature and the societies in which it manifests.
