Autorenporträt
Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-1924) was an English hagiographer, antiquarian, novelist, and eclectic scholar. His literary style melds the detailed observations of a historian with the engaging narrative of a storyteller, providing insights into his contemporary Victorian society as well as medieval European culture. As a prolific writer, he penned over 1,200 publications, encompassing various genres including theology, folklore, history, and fiction, earning a place in intellectual circles of his era. Perhaps, one of the most enduring of his legacies is the hymn 'Onward, Christian Soldiers,' which reflects his religious fervor and commitment to Anglican beliefs. Baring-Gould's scholarship spanned across many areas, best exemplified in his work 'The Lost and Hostile Gospels' (1874), where he delves into the study of non-canonical texts and their impact on early Christianity. This book stands testament to his relentless pursuit for a comprehensive understanding of theology and ecclesiastical history. His wide-ranging knowledge and curiosity about the past made him a significant figure in Victorian literature and religious scholarship. Despite his contributions being sometimes overshadowed by his contemporaries, Baring-Gould remains an intriguing figure to those who study mythology, theology, and cultural history.
