Autorenporträt
Anthony Hope, born Anthony Hope Hawkins on February 9, 1863, was an English novelist and playwright, most distinguished for his adventure novels set in fictitious realms. Educated at the esteemed Marlborough and Oxford's Balliol College, he practiced as a barrister while dedicating his free time to writing. Hope gained immense popularity with his book 'The Prisoner of Zenda' (1894), which inaugurated the Ruritanian romance genre. His adeptness in creating an interplay between reality and fantasy, alongside his piquant prose, garnered critical acclaim and a devoted readership. In his subsequent work, 'Mrs. Maxon Protests' (1911), Hope explores contemporary themes of women's rights and societal expectations within the framework of matrimonial relations, displaying a perceptive understanding of the evolving roles and legal entanglements of women in Edwardian England. Although less known than his adventurous tales, this novel exhibits Hope's versatility and nuanced character portrayals. His literary style is marked by incisive dialogue and a facility for plot construction, making Hope's body of work significant in the transition from Victorian to modern sensibilities in fiction. Anthony Hope left behind a legacy as a storyteller who could deftly weave narratives of romance and intrigue, echoing the shifting currents of his time. He passed away on July 8, 1933, leaving an indelible mark on early 20th-century literature.
