Autorenporträt
Baroness Emma Orczy, born Emma Magdalena Rosalia Maria Josefa Barbara Orczy on September 23, 1865, in Tarnaörs, Hungary, was a distinguished playwright and author of classic adventure fiction. Best known for her novel 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' (1905), Orczy carved a unique space for herself in the early 20th-century literature through her thrilling plots and compelling characters. Orczy's foray into literature blossomed after her family moved to London, where she attended the West London School of Art and later the Heatherley School of Fine Art. The Baroness's works often encapsulated aristocratic life and featured themes of adventure, espionage, and romance set in historical contexts. 'The Celestial City' is among the notable mentions in Orczy's impressive bibliography. Although it may not have gained the same enduring fame as 'The Scarlet Pimpernel,' it nonetheless showcases her grand literary style and her ability to intricately weave narratives alongside historical settings. Orczy's writing is characterized by its vivid storytelling, imbued with a sense of boldness and idiosyncratic flair that resonated deeply with her contemporary audience and continues to captivate readers today. She passed away on November 12, 1947, in Henley-on-Thames, England, leaving behind a rich legacy that secures her place in the pantheon of literary history.
