Autoren-Porträt von Anthony Hope
Anthony Hope, born Anthony Hope Hawkins on February 9, 1863, was an English novelist and playwright famed for his adventure novels, most notably 'The Prisoner of Zenda' (1894) and its sequel 'Rupert of Hentzau' (1898). These works exemplified Hope's penchant for combining swashbuckling adventures with a sophisticated wit, and they set the tone for his literary style that often featured romantic escapades against the backdrop of Ruritanian-type fictional European countries. A lawyer by profession, Hope found his true calling in literature, publishing his first novel, 'A Man of Mark', in 1890. 'Second String', less known than his Ruritanian romances, continues to depict his command of plot and character, the hallmarks of his narrative style. Despite its lesser popularity, the book nonetheless offers insight into Hope's diverse storytelling capabilities, marrying social commentary with the engaging prose that characterized his more prominent works. Anthony Hope's contribution to English literature extends beyond his tales of adventure; his influence is evident in the works of subsequent writers who have embraced and expanded upon his inventive settings and dashing heroes. He continued to write until his passing on July 8, 1933, leaving behind a legacy that encompasses a masterful blend of intrigue, romance, and political machination.
