Autorenporträt
Sir Oliver Joseph Lodge, FRS (1851-1940), was a British physicist and writer, renowned for his contributions to the field of electromagnetism and telegraphy. Lodge's work in wireless communication laid the groundwork for the radio. He was also known for his advocacy of Spiritualism and his attempts to find a scientific basis for existence after death. His literary output was significant, with his book 'Life and Matter: A Criticism of Professor Haeckel's "Riddle of the Universe"' (1905), in which he discussed and critiqued the monist philosophy of Ernst Haeckel, especially viewing it from a spiritualist perspective. Lodge's writing style often blended the empirical with the speculative, reflecting his scientific background and his personal beliefs. As a speaker and author, Lodge was influential in the debates over science and religion during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He held a complex view that sought to reconcile the two, rather than seeing them in opposition. Lodge's literary legacy is a reflection of his multifaceted intellect, grappling with the biggest questions of existence through the lens of both a scientist and a spiritual seeker.
