Autorenporträt

Jules Verne (1828-1905), a novelist, poet, and playwright, is often referred to as the 'Father of Science Fiction.' Born in Nantes, France, Verne cultivated a love for travel and adventure tales early in his life. His enduringly popular works combine scientific knowledge and imaginative speculation, resulting in classic novels that have enthralled readers for over a century. Verne's contribution to literature extends beyond his precursor role in the science fiction genre, as seen in his 'Voyages Extraordinaires' series, which includes such famous titles as 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea' and 'Around the World in Eighty Days'. The 'North vs. South Collection' further reflects his masterful storytelling and meticulous research into technological advancements and geographic exploration. Verne's prose, rich in Victorian era insights, is noted for its forward-looking vision and the uncanny ability to predict future scientific achievements. His works are lauded for their spirit of discovery and adventure, influencing not just literary contemporaries but also future scientists and explorers. To this day, Jules Verne remains a cornerstone of the science fiction genre and an inspiration for the pursuit of knowledge and the exploration of the unknown.
