Autorenporträt
Arthur Machen, born Arthur Llewellyn Jones in 1863 in Caerleon, Wales, was a writer and mystic known for his contributions to supernatural fiction. His parents were John Edward Jones, an Anglican clergyman, and Janet Machen. Growing up in a region rich with folklore and ancient history, he developed an early fascination with the mystical and the unknown. He moved to London as a young man, working as a translator before gaining recognition for his eerie and imaginative tales. Deeply influenced by Edgar Allan Poe, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Charles Dickens, his works often blended horror with elements of mysticism and philosophical speculation. His most famous writings, including The Great God Pan and The White People, helped shape the weird fiction genre and inspired later writers such as H.P. Lovecraft. His storytelling frequently explored themes of hidden realities, forbidden knowledge, and the uncanny lurking beneath everyday life. Though his literary career faced periods of struggle, his work gained appreciation in later years. He died in 1947 in Beaconsfield, leaving behind a legacy that continues to influence horror and fantasy literature.
