Autorenporträt
Mrs. Oliphant, born Margaret Oliphant Wilson (1828–1897), was a prominent Scottish novelist and historical writer whose literary career spanned the mid-Victorian era, encompassing a prolific output of over 120 works, including fiction, historical writings, and biographies. Her narrative style often wove intricate character studies and detailed social observations, balancing romantic subplots with deeper ethical and philosophical inquiries, a hallmark of her nuanced storytelling. 'The Perpetual Curate' is one of her notable works, part of the Carlingford series, which explores the dynamics of a small town society with richly drawn characters and a keen eye on clerical and community life. The series has been acclaimed for its wit and depiction of the status and structure of Victorian England. Oliphant's experience as a widow and sole provider for her children after the death of her husband, is reflected in the strong-willed and independent female characters that frequently appear in her writing. Her literary achievements earned her a place alongside her contemporaries like Anthony Trollope and George Eliot, contributing significantly to the landscape of 19th-century British literature (Jay, 1986; Tuchman, 1989).
