Autorenporträt
William Clark Russell (1844-1911) was a prolific English writer, renowned for his maritime novels that captivated readers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His literary career was underscored by an intimate understanding of the sea, having been initiated into the nautical world at the tender age of 13 when he went to sea. This firsthand experience laid the foundation for the authentic and vivid portrayals of the sailor's life that characterized his work. Russell's oeuvre consists of over 40 novels, with a thematic focus on seafaring tales that combined adventure, romance, and a deep sympathy for the common sailor. 'The Tragedy of Ida Noble' is one of his lesser-known works that, like many of his narratives, weaves a complex story of love and loss against the backdrop of the sea. His writings resonate with the hardships and triumphs of naval life, and his ability to infuse his stories with detailed maritime knowledge has cemented his reputation as one of the preeminent authors of nautical fiction. His notable works such as 'The Wreck of the Grosvenor' (1877) and 'The Phantom Death' (1895) illustrate his signature style marked by suspenseful plots and authentic seafaring terminology. While not as widely read today, Russell's contributions to nautical fiction continue to be acknowledged by literary scholars and enthusiasts of maritime history.
