Beschreibungen

Lytton Strachey's first great success, and his most famous achievement, was &quote;Eminent Victorians&quote; (1918), a collection of four short biographies of Victorian heroes. With a dry wit, he exposed the human failings of his subjects and what he saw as the hypocrisy at the centre of Victorian morality. This work was followed in the same style by &quote;Queen Victoria&quote; (1921). Giles Lytton Strachey (1 March 1880 - 21 January 1932) was a British writer and critic. A founding member of the Bloomsbury Group and author of Eminent Victorians, he is best known for establishing a new form of biography in which psychological insight and sympathy are combined with irreverence and wit. His biography Queen Victoria (1921) was awarded the James Tait Black Memorial Prize.
