Autoren-Porträt von Frances Milton Trollope
Frances Milton Trollope (1780-1863) was an English novelist and writer whose literary career began later in life, making her a notable figure in 19th-century literature. A prolific author, she is perhaps best known for her controversial travelogue 'Domestic Manners of the Americans' (1832), in which she provides a critical account of her social observations during her time in the United States. The book, celebrated for its wit and incisive commentary, was both praised and scorned, as it offered a less than flattering view of early American society from an outsider's perspective. Trollope's unapologetically honest depictions of the cultural contrasts between the States and her native England brought her considerable attention and marked the distinct, satirical style she would be known for. Though often overshadowed by the literary accomplishments of her son, Anthony Trollope, Frances authored more than 40 books, ranging from novels and travel writing to social critiques. Her works reflect her keen eye for detail and her willingness to address social issues of her time, notably the treatment of women. Trollope's narratives often explore topics of social injustice and the restrictive conventions of 19th-century society, while her rich prose and vivid characterizations have secured her a place among the notable British authors of the Victorian era.
