Autoren-Porträt von J. D. Beresford
John Davys Beresford, commonly known as J. D. Beresford, was a notable English novelist and critic, whose work is often associated with early twentieth-century speculative fiction. Born on March 17, 1873, Beresford's literary career was forged in an era of profound social change, which he reflected upon in his diverse writings. Bestowed with a keen insight into human nature and societal structures, his narratives frequently explored the psychological underpinnings of his characters in the face of modernity's inexorable march. A contemporary of H. G. Wells, Beresford's writing sometimes paralleled Wellsian themes of science and society, as can be discerned in his book 'H. G. Wells: A Biography' (1915), where he provided a critical examination of Wells's life and literary impact. Beresford's own fiction often courted the speculative, as exemplified by 'The Hampdenshire Wonder' (1911), considered one of the first modern novels to delve into the superhuman and proto-superhero themes. His significant contribution to literature includes an exploration of utopian and dystopian tropes, shaping early science fiction and influencing generations of writers to follow. Beresford's penetrating gaze into the complexities of character and community, combined with a stylistic blend of realism and speculative imagination, ensures his lasting relevance in the canon of English literature.
