Autoren-Porträt von Robert E. Howard

Robert Ervin Howard (1906-1936) was an American author of pulp fiction, who significantly shaped the genre of sword and sorcery with his creation of the character Conan the Barbarian. Born in Peaster, Texas, Howard spent most of his life in the town of Cross Plains. A prolific writer, Howard's works span a variety of genres, including fantasy, horror, historical adventure and boxing stories, often published in pulp magazines such as 'Weird Tales.' 'The Scarlet Citadel,' one of his notable Conan stories, showcases the richly imagined Hyborian Age, an era before recorded history filled with dark magic and dangerous adventures. Howard's visceral and imaginative storytelling has left a permanent mark on fantasy literature, influencing subsequent generations of writers. His writing is characterized by swift pacing, intense action sequences, and a dark, brooding atmosphere. Despite Howard's tragically short life-he passed away at the age of 30-his legacy endures through the body of work he left behind and through the continued popularity of characters like Conan. The enduring nature of Howard's tales and his impact on the fantasy genre can be seen in the many adaptations of his work, including films, television series, comics, and an extensive list of pastiche fiction.
