Autorenporträt
Egerton Castle (1858–1920) was an English author and antiquary whose literary contributions are recognized primarily in the genres of romance and historical novels. Castle's erudition and his passion for history were evident in his carefully crafted narratives, which often incorporated elements of adventure and chivalry. A notable work in his oeuvre is 'The Light of Scarthey'—a romantic narrative interwoven with suspense and the historical richness characteristic of his literary style. Alongside his solo endeavors, Castle often collaborated with his wife, Agnes, and such partnerships yielded an extensive bibliography of popular works that resonated with the readers of their time. Castle did not merely indulge in fiction; he also had a scholarly inclination, which he expressed through his work on fencing, 'Schools and Masters of Fence.' His prose has been described as fluid and his attention to detail reflected a deep respect for historical accuracy. Castle's influence waned over time, but his works, including 'The Light of Scarthey', remain an enduring testimony to his storytelling prowess and his respect for the romanticism of the past, elements that continue to endear him to a niche audience of classic literature enthusiasts.
