Autorenporträt

Emma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte Southworth (1819-1899), was an American novelist of the 19th century. She was one of the most popular authors of her day, with the majority of her novels being published in the latter half of the century. Born in Washington, D.C., she was educated at home and commenced her writing career to support her family after the separation from her husband. Southworth authored over 60 novels, primarily focusing on themes of domesticity, women's rights, and social issues. Southworth's writing was characterized by her vivid storytelling and often intricate plots, engaging readers with their sensational narratives and Gothic elements. 'Her Mother's Secret' is one example of her prolific career, showcasing her recurring motifs of hidden identities and societal expectations. Southworth's stories were predominantly serialized in periodicals such as 'The National Era' before being published as novels, which was a common practice at the time. Her work not only provided entertainment but also shed light on the struggles faced by women in a patriarchal society, reflecting her own experiences and beliefs in the potential and independence of women. Although her works have largely been forgotten in contemporary literary discourse, Southworth was integral in shaping 19th-century American literature and was a true pioneer for female authors of her time.
