Autorenporträt
Robert Hugh Benson (1871–1914) was a notable English Catholic priest and writer who left a significant mark on early 20th-century literature, particularly in the realm of Christian spirituality and supernatural fiction. Born on November 18, 1871, into an ecclesiastically prominent family, his father, Edward White Benson, was the Archbishop of Canterbury, and his own early career began within the Anglican ministry. However, in a move that stirred considerable controversy, he converted to Roman Catholicism in 1903 and was ordained a Catholic priest in 1904. Benson's work often reflects his deep religious convictions, and he is perhaps best known for his apocalyptic novel, 'Lord of the World' (1907), a dystopian vision of the future that has been praised for its prescience and insightful commentary on the spiritual state of modern society. 'The Light Invisible,' a collection of supernatural short stories, showcases Benson's fascination with the metaphysical and the mystical experiences of life. His literary style is characterized by eloquent prose and a profound exploration of faith and morality, calling readers to reflect on the unseen realities that pervade their existence. Benson's contributions to Christian literature have earned him lasting recognition, not only as a gifted storyteller but also as a theologian who used narrative to delve into the mysteries of faith and the human condition. He passed away on October 19, 1914, but his writings continue to inspire and captivate those interested in the intersection of religion and literature.
