Autoren-Porträt von George Macdonald
George MacDonald (1824-1905) was a pioneering figure in the field of fantasy literature and a mentor to fellow writer Lewis Carroll. Born in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, he became a respected author and Christian minister known for his captivating storytelling and profound spiritual insights. MacDonald's literary style often weaved together the narrative traditions of the fairy tale with deep theological and moral themes. His work 'Phantastes: A Faerie Romance for Men and Women', first published in 1858, is a seminal piece in the fantasy genre and greatly impacted notable authors such as C.S. Lewis, who claimed that reading 'Phantastes' 'baptized' his imagination. In 'Phantastes', MacDonald explores themes of love, redemption, and self-discovery, through a richly allegorical narrative embodied in the adventures of its protagonist, Anodos. MacDonald's use of symbolic landscapes and supernatural encounters within 'Phantastes' set a precedent for many fantasy works that followed. His influence on the Inklings, particularly on Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, and the broader spectrum of modern fantasy literature, is widely acknowledged and celebrated. Beyond 'Phantastes', MacDonald is known for other notable works such as 'The Princess and the Goblin' and 'At the Back of the North Wind', which further establish his place as a foundational voice in the canon of English literature.
