Autorenporträt
James Lane Allen was a novelist and short story writer born on 21 December 1849 in Lexington, Kentucky, to parents Richard Allen and Helen Jane Foster Allen. Known for his deep attachment to his native region, he became one of the most notable voices of the American local color movement of the late 19th century. His writing vividly portrayed the landscapes, customs, and dialects of Kentucky, often reflecting a nostalgic yet realistic vision of Southern life. Allen's literary style balanced elegant prose with regional specificity, capturing the transitions occurring in rural America during his lifetime. One of his most recognized works, A Kentucky Cardinal, exemplifies his ability to evoke both natural beauty and human sentiment with subtlety and restraint. His narratives typically explore the moral and emotional lives of characters shaped by tradition and personal conviction. Relocating later in life, he lived in New York City, where he continued his literary pursuits until his death on 18 February 1925. Allen remains an important figure in regional American literature for his sensitive and authentic portrayals of Kentucky's culture and people.
