Autorenporträt
Hugh Lofting, a cherished figure in children's literature, is renowned for his creation of the beloved character Doctor John Dolittle. Lofting was born in Maidenhead, Berkshire, England, on January 14, 1886. His formative years fostered a diverse educational background, which culminated in his study of civil engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States. Prior to becoming a professional writer, Lofting explored various careers including that of a soldier, which notably influenced his literary works. His experiences during World War I led him to conceptualize the character of Doctor Dolittle, initially as a means to entertain his children amid the horrors of war through illustrated letters sent home. This germinal idea grew into 'The Story of Doctor Dolittle (Illustrated Edition)', first published in 1920, marking the beginning of a series that would enchant generations of readers with tales of the benevolent doctor who could communicate with animals. The ingenuity of Lofting's narrative voice lies in its blend of whimsical fantasy with gentle satire, addressing social and environmental themes that were ahead of their time, which underscores the enduring appeal of his works. Lofting's contributions to literature have been recognized by the prestigious Newbery Medal, which he was awarded for later volumes in the Doctor Dolittle series. Lofting passed away on September 26, 1947, but the legacy of his literature continues to be celebrated and enjoyed by audiences worldwide.
