Autoren-Porträt von Robert E. Howard
Robert Ervin Howard (1906 - 1936) was a seminal figure in the world of American pulp fiction, renowned for his contributions to the Sword and Sorcery genre, as well as for creating the iconic character Conan the Barbarian. Born in Peaster, Texas, Howard spent most of his life in the small town of Cross Plains. A prolific writer, he published a vast array of stories across various genres including fantasy, horror, historical fiction, and westerns. Among his work, 'The Grisly Horror' stands out as a spine-chilling tale exemplifying his ability to weave supernatural elements into his narratives. Howard's stylistic approach often involved a heady mix of raw physicality, vivid imagery, and a certain poetic intensity. His works have had a profound influence on modern fantasy literature and have inspired numerous writers, including the likes of Lin Carter and L. Sprague de Camp. Howard's tragic and untimely death by suicide at the age of 30 cut short what could have been an even more illustrious career. Nevertheless, his legacy endures through the continued popularity of his characters and the ongoing interest in his oeuvre, solidifying his place as a cornerstone of speculative fiction. The Robert E. Howard Foundation continues to preserve his contributions to the literary world, ensuring that his tales of heroism and adventure will not be forgotten.
