Autorenporträt
Josiah Quincy (1772-1864) was an American lawyer, educator, and public official who is perhaps best known for his contributions as a historian and biographer. A Boston native and member of the prominent Quincy family, Josiah Quincy's life intersected with important phases of American political development, as well as with influential figures of the era. His seminal work, 'Memoir of the Life of John Quincy Adams' (1858), serves as an important primary source for understanding the life and presidency of John Quincy Adams, the sixth President of the United States and Josiah's own cousin. Quincy's style in this memoir is meticulously detailed, reflecting his legal background and academic inclination. It combines the intimate knowledge that comes from familial connection with a scholar's aim at objectivity. Quincy not only offered vital insights into John Quincy Adams' political and diplomatic career but also poured light on the controversial presidential election of 1824. Over his lifetime, Quincy held several important positions, such as Mayor of Boston and President of Harvard University, further contributing to his comprehensive view on the socio-political changes of his time. His collection of works serves as a testament to both his intellectual pedigree and his dedication to chronicling the early Republic's history. Therefore, Josiah Quincy's biography is not just a portrayal of a singular figure but an illumination of a pivotal era in American history.
