Autorenporträt
Margaret Oliphant Wilson Oliphant (1828-1897), commonly known as Mrs. Oliphant, was a prolific Scottish novelist, biographer, and literary critic of the Victorian era. With an impressive oeuvre that extends to over 120 works, including historical fiction, domestic novels, ghost stories, and literary biographies, Oliphant established herself as a major literary figure of her time. Her deft narrative style embedded in realism and focus on domestic life gained her a vast readership and critical acclaim. 'A Widow's Tale, and Other Stories' is one of Oliphant's notable collections, showcasing her keen insights into the complexities of bereavement and womanhood within Victorian society. Her narrative approach in this work is emblematic of her broader literary style, characterized by a nuanced blend of empathy and moral scrutiny. As a widow herself who supported her three children through her writing after the death of her husband, the themes of widowhood and resilience are heartfelt and authentic. Oliphant is often compared with her contemporaries such as George Eliot, due to her liminal position between the traditional and the progressive, and her explorations of gender roles and the constraints on women in a changing society. Oliphant's contributions have been historically underappreciated, but recent scholarship has increasingly recognized her significant role in the canon of nineteenth-century British literature.
