Autorenporträt

Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton, was an influential English writer and politician born on May 25, 1803, in London. A prolific author, he is best known for his novels, including The Last Days of Pompeii, Eugene Aram, and The Coming Race, which helped shape Victorian literature. His writing often explored themes of social issues, human nature, and the tension between reason and emotion. In addition to his literary career, Bulwer-Lytton had a notable political life. He served as a Member of Parliament for the Whig Party from 1831 to 1841 and later as a Conservative from 1851 to 1866. He was also appointed to the House of Lords in 1866. Throughout his career, he was awarded the Chancellor's Gold Medal for his contributions to literature. He passed away on January 18, 1873, in Torquay at the age of 69. Bulwer-Lytton's legacy endures through his literary works, which continue to influence modern storytelling, and his role in 19th-century politics.
