Autoren-Porträt von Anthony Hope
Anthony Hope, born Anthony Hope Hawkins on February 9, 1863, in London, England, is best known as a novelist and playwright who achieved lasting fame with 'The Prisoner of Zenda' (1894). With a literary style that wove together adventure, romance, and political intrigue, Hope captured the imagination of his contemporary readers. 'Tristram of Blent' (1901), albeit less well-known than 'Zenda', is a testament to Hope's adept storytelling and his ability to explore complex character relationships within the framework of a compelling narrative. Hope was educated at Marlborough and at Balliol College, Oxford, before commencing a career in law. However, his passion for literature prevailed, leading him to pursue writing full-time after the success of 'The Prisoner of Zenda'. His works, often set in the fictional realm of Ruritania, have been classified within the 'Ruritanian romance' genre, a term that has since been used to describe similar tales of romance and adventure in fictitious European countries. Despite the decline in popularity of his later works, Anthony Hope left an indelible mark on literature with his contribution to the genre of romantic adventure. Hope's literary legacy spans over 30 novels and numerous short stories and plays. He passed away on July 8, 1933, in Walton-on-the-Hill, Surrey, England, but remains a significant figure in the historical tapestry of British literature.
