A lifelong Virginian who published 20 books including seven novels which sold well (five reaching best-seller lists) as well as gained critical acclaim, Glasgow portrayed the changing world of the contemporary South, differing from the idealistic escapism that characterized Southern literature after Reconstruction.

Autorenporträt
Ellen Glasgow (1873-1945) was an influential American novelist who chronicled the social and cultural changes in the American South during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Here are some key aspects of her life and work. Glasgow published her first novel, The Descendant, in 1897 under the pseudonym Ellen Glasgow. The novel's exploration of heredity and environment set the tone for her later works. Her novels often dealt with themes such as the decline of the Southern aristocracy, the rise of industrialism, the role of women in society, and the conflicts between tradition and progress. Some of her most significant novels include Virginia (1913), Barren Ground (1925), The Sheltered Life (1932), and in This Our Life (1941), which won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1942. Ellen Glasgow is regarded as one of the leading Southern writers of her time. Her work has been praised for its insight into the changing Southern society and its strong, independent female characters. Ellen Glasgow died on November 21, 1945, in Richmond, Virginia. Her contributions to American literature have continued to be celebrated, and her novels remain an important part of the canon of Southern literature. Ellen Glasgow's keen observations and nuanced portrayals of Southern life have left a lasting impact on American literature, making her an essential figure in the study of the South's cultural and social evolution.
