Autorenporträt
Frederic William Farrar, often known as F.W. Farrar, was a distinguished figure in the literary and ecclesiastical spheres of the 19th century. Born on August 7, 1831, in Bombay, India, Farrar was an Anglican cleric and a prolific author, remembered for his scholarly works and his significant contributions to religious thought and educational reform. He was educated at King William's College on the Isle of Man and later at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he exhibited a remarkable intellect that would inform his later writings. Farrar was known for his eloquence and his deep engagement with the religious questions of his time. He is perhaps best known for his book 'Seekers after God', a significant work that chronicles the lives and philosophies of the Stoic philosophers Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius, offering a Christian perspective on their search for virtue and wisdom. This work is representative of Farrar's broader literary style, which combines thorough scholarly research with a highly accessible narrative approach, aimed at appealing to a wide audience. Farrar's contributions also extended to fiction, notably in 'Eric, or, Little by Little,' a school novel aimed at instilling moral values in the youth. His literary legacy reflects a deep moral conscience and a desire to harmonize the spiritual and intellectual pursuits. He died on March 22, 1903, leaving behind a rich collection of theological and educational treatises, sermons, and historical biographies that continue to be studied for their insights into Victorian spirituality and intellectual life.
