Autoren-Porträt von T. S. Arthur
Timothy Shay Arthur, better known as T. S. Arthur, was a prominent 19th-century American author whose work primarily focused on themes of temperance, morality, and social issues of the time. Born on June 6, 1809, in Newburgh, New York, Arthur embarked on a career that produced over 150 volumes of fiction and non-fiction. One of his most impactful works includes 'Grappling with the Monster; Or, the Curse and the Cure of Strong Drink' which delves into the pervasive issues surrounding alcohol consumption and its societal ramifications (Arthur, 1877). His literary style is often characterized by didactic narratives aimed at instilling virtue and sobriety in his readers. Arthur's influence extended beyond literature; he was also the editor and proprietor of the successful 'Arthur's Home Magazine'. His works, including 'Ten Nights in a Bar-Room and What I Saw There' and 'Advice to Young Men on Their Duties and Conduct in Life', emphasize moral integrity and domestic harmony (Arthur, 1854; Arthur, 1848). Arthur's contribution to American literature is notably marked by his commitment to improving society through storytelling, a craft through which he effectively communicated his vision of temperance and moral rectitude until his death on March 6, 1885.
