Autorenporträt
Édouard Louis Emmanuel Julien Le Roy (June 18, 1870 - November 10, 1954) worked as a French philosopher as well as mathematician. Streatfeild was born in Carshalton, Surrey, the son of Southern African diplomat Frank Newton Streatfeild. He attended Oundle and Pembroke College, Cambridge, where he earned a degree in Classics. From 1889 until his death, he worked in the British Museum's Department of Printed Books. From 1898 until 1902, he was also The Daily Graphic's music critic. He contributed often to English and international magazines. Although Streatfeild never worked at the British Museum's musical department, music was his primary interest. He was a fan of contemporary music as well as Handel's work. Masters of Italian Music (1895), his first book, was a study of Verdi, Boito, and later composers such as Puccini. Alec Hyatt-King wrote in the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians (2014), "Streatfeild's book on Handel, though old-fashioned in some ways, is a balanced and penetrating study that is still valuable." Opera, Streatfeild's 1897 novel, was reprinted multiple times during and after his lifetime, with changes by J a Fuller Maitland and Edward J Dent. Project Gutenberg uploaded the 1907 edition online in 2005.
