Autor

Mrs. Margaret Oliphant, widely recognized by her pen name Mrs. Oliphant, was a prolific Scottish novelist and critic of the 19th century. Born Margaret Oliphant Wilson on April 4, 1828, in Wallyford, Scotland, she had a literary career that spanned over four decades during which she published more than 120 works, including novels, biographies, short stories, and historical sketches. Her narratives often revolved around domestic realism and the portrayal of women's lives and societal roles, a theme reflective of her own experiences as a widow responsible for supporting her family. Mrs. Oliphant's keen insight into character development and societal norms is exemplified in her book 'Who Was Lost and Is Found', where she engages with themes of identity, redemption, and the complexities of human relationships. Her literary style combines a sharp eye for detail with a pervasive moral undercurrent, which has allowed her work to endure. While she was celebrated in her day, her work has been somewhat overshadowed in literary history, though recent scholarship has rekindled interest in her contributions to Victorian literature. Mrs. Oliphant passed away on June 25, 1897, leaving behind a legacy as a trailblazer for women in literature, both through her own prolific output and her support of emerging female writers of her time.
