Autorenporträt
Edwin Abbott Abbott (20 December 1838 - 12 October 1926) was an English schoolmaster, theologian, and Anglican priest, best known as the author of the novella Flatland. Abbott was educated at the City of London School and at St John's College, Cambridge, where he took the highest honours of his class in classics, mathematics, and theology, and became a fellow of his college. In 1862 he took orders. After holding masterships at King Edward's School, Birmingham, he became headmaster of the City of London School at the early age of 26. There, he oversaw the education of future Prime Minister H. H. Asquith. He retired in 1889, and devoted himself to literary and theological pursuits.
