Autorenporträt
Agnes Giberne was born on November 19, 1845, in Belagavi to parents Captain Charles Giberne and Lydia Mary Wilson. She became a prolific British author, known for combining religious instruction with storytelling, particularly for young readers. Much of her fiction reflected the values of Victorian evangelicalism, often featuring moral dilemmas, spiritual lessons, and character growth grounded in Christian principles. Her stories typically targeted children and adolescents, aiming to inspire both ethical behavior and faith. In addition to her fiction, Giberne contributed significantly to popular science writing, producing accessible works on astronomy and other scientific topics for young audiences. Her ability to simplify complex concepts without losing scientific accuracy gained her respect in an era when science education was not broadly accessible. Giberne also explored historical fiction and wrote a notable biography, showcasing her versatility and commitment to educational literature. She died on August 20, 1939, in Eastbourne, United Kingdom, at the age of 93.
