Autoren-Porträt von T. S. Arthur
T. S. Arthur, born Timothy Shay Arthur on June 6, 1809, in Newburgh, New York, was a prolific American author renowned for his didactic and temperance-themed literature. Arthur's upbringing was modest, and despite receiving minimal formal education, his voracious reading habits and natural inclination towards writing set the foundation for his literary career. He is perhaps best known for his temperance novel, 'Ten Nights in a Bar-Room and What I Saw There,' which was highly influential in the temperance movement and remains his most enduring work. Arthur's writings not only offered moral and social commentary but also reflected the cultural norms and issues of nineteenth-century America. His book 'Home Lights and Shadows' encapsulates his typical narrative style, weaving stories that highlight the virtues of home, the importance of domestic happiness, and the moral intricacies of everyday life. Arthur's stories were often serialized in popular periodicals of the era, including 'Godey's Lady's Book' and his own 'Arthur's Home Magazine.' His work ethic was unrelenting, and by the time of his passing on March 6, 1885, Arthur had penned over one hundred volumes. His literary legacy is characterized by a didactic approach that sought to improve society through the promotion of virtue, temperance, and the nurturing of family life.
