Autorenporträt
Algernon Charles Swinburne was an English poet, playwright, and critic, born on April 5, 1837, in London. His works are renowned for their emotional intensity and often deal with themes of human suffering, love, and the tension between passion and reason. Swinburne s early education was shaped by his time at Eton and Balliol College, Oxford, where he befriended notable figures like Oscar Wilde. His literary career was marked by his bold exploration of taboo subjects and controversial themes, particularly in his poetry collections such as Poems and Ballads. Swinburne s dramatic works were all tragedies, reflecting his fascination with the darker aspects of the human experience. He contributed to the Eleventh Edition of the Encyclop dia Britannica and was influenced by poets like Alfred Lord Tennyson, Robert Browning, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Swinburne's personal life was often marked by health struggles and a penchant for defiance against conventional norms. He died at the age of 72 on April 10, 1909, in Putney, London, leaving behind a legacy that continues to influence English literature. His mother, Jane Henrietta Swinburne, played a significant role in his upbringing.
