Autorenporträt
Thomas Bailey Aldrich (1836–1907), an American writer and poet, is celebrated for his lyrical and dramatic compositions that resonate with romanticism and wit. Born on November 11 in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Aldrich became an influential figure in late 19th-century literature. His early schooling was inconsistent, leading him to embark on a career in writing without the aid of a formal literary education. He moved to New York at age 17 and found work in his uncle's banking firm, but his passion for literature compelled him to contribute to periodicals like the 'New York Evening Mirror'. Aldrich's work, including 'The Sisters' Tragedy, with Other Poems, Lyrical and Dramatic' (1891), exhibits his adeptness in utilizing traditional poetic forms to express both personal sentiments and social observations. His narrative style often paints scenes with precision, drawing on the influence of 19th-century poetic giants. Although not as widely known today, during his lifetime Aldrich was immensely popular, serving as the editor of the influential 'The Atlantic Monthly' from 1881 to 1890. Aldrich's polished literary style and his ability to depict American life with grace and levity have ensured his place among the significant American authors of his time.
