Autorenporträt
Captain Frederick Marryat (10 July 1792 - 9 August 1848) was a British Royal Navy officer, a novelist, and an early pioneer of the sea story genre of novels. He is best known for his semi-autobiographical work 'Mr. Midshipman Easy' (1836) and for his children's novel 'The Children of the New Forest' (1847). Marryat's literary career was marked by a narrative style that vividly captured the life of sailors and the drama of the sea, which were largely drawn from his own experiences at sea. This authenticity endeared his works to the public and to fellow writers alike. 'The Three Cutters' (1836), offers an intriguing tale of sea adventure and piracy, typical of Marryat's renowned storytelling. He was adept not just in creating thrilling tales but also in weaving humor and social commentary within his works. Marryat's influence on later writers, particularly in the adventure and maritime fiction genres, is significant. He inspired authors such as Joseph Conrad and Ernest Hemingway, and his work resonated with the likes of Charles Dickens, who held him in high regard. Throughout his prolific writing career, Marryat published over 30 works of fiction and non-fiction, contributing significantly to the form and development of the nautical novel.
