Autorenporträt
Anthony Trollope (1815–1882) was a prolific Victorian writer, whose literary career spanned almost four decades. His works are esteemed for their acuminous depiction of the social and political milieu of his times. Trollope was born in London, the son of a barrister. Despite a challenging childhood marred by his father's financial misfortune, Trollope carved out a dual career as a postal worker and a writer, which allowed him extensive travel and insight into different strata of society. His novels often interweave ordinary domestic life with the consequences of industrial and political change. Trollope's narrative style is marked by a rich tapestry of character development, a keen eye for detail, and a gentle yet perceptive irony. Among his most remarkable contributions is the Barsetshire series, including 'The Warden' and 'Barchester Towers,' which has garnered high critical acclaim. 'Mary Gresley, and An Editor's Tales,' although lesser-known compared to his major works, still exemplifies Trollope's narrative prowess and his incisive exploration of moral dilemmas and social pressures. His bibliography includes 47 novels, various short stories, and several travel books, making him one of the most influential English novelists of the 19th century. His work has been extensively analyzed in literary studies and continues to resonate with readers for its timeless relevance and insight.
