Autorenporträt
William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-1863) was a British novelist and satirist best known for his masterpiece Vanity Fair, a scathing yet humorous portrayal of 19th-century English society. Born in India and educated in England, Thackeray initially pursued a career in art before turning to writing. His novels often blend wit, irony, and social critique, focusing on the moral ambiguities and hypocrisies of the upper and middle classes. Other notable works include Pendennis, The History of Henry Esmond, and The Newcomes. Thackeray's keen observations and sharp satire established him as one of the leading literary figures of the Victorian era, alongside Charles Dickens.
