Autorenporträt

Lord Dunsany was an immensely prolific Anglo-Irish writer of fantasies, novels, dramas, short stories, and poetry. An Irish aristocrat whose peerage stretched back to medieval times, Lord Dunsany is considered one of the earliest and most significant authors of modern fantasy literature. He has been described as a "fantasist's fantasist" and his work has strongly influenced a genre that stretches back to the medieval Romances populated by wizards and dragons and reaches forward to the edge of contemporary science fiction.
