Autorenporträt
Robert Herrick (1591-1674) was an English lyric poet and cleric, best known for his collection of poems 'Hesperides,' which includes the famous carpe diem poem 'To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time.' Herrick was born in Cheapside, London and was apprenticed to his uncle as a goldsmith before deciding to pursue a career in the church. After graduating from St John's College, Cambridge, he became the vicar of Dean Prior in Devon. His poetry is characterized by its simplicity, pastoral themes, and classical references, reflecting both his rural surroundings and the influence of the ancient Roman poets. 'The Man Who Wins' is not among Herrick's well-documented works, which suggests that either the reference is to a lesser-known piece or the author in question is not the same Robert Herrick already distinguished in literary history. If the latter is the case, without specific biographical details about the contemporary or different Robert Herrick who authored 'The Man Who Wins,' a scholarly-style biography cannot be furnished. Notwithstanding, the historical Robert Herrick remains a significant figure in English Literature, often celebrated for his witty and charming style and his contribution to the Cavalier poetic tradition.
