Autorenporträt

Orin Fowler was a noted 19th-century American clergyman and author, remembered primarily for his fervent opposition to tobacco use. His distinguished work, 'A Disquisition on the Evils of Using Tobacco and the Necessity of Immediate and Entire Reformation,' underscored the moral and health imperatives of relinquishing tobacco. Fowler's writings belong to the temperance movement literature that gained momentum during his era, and his scholarly treatise contributed to the early dialogues on the subject of substance abstinence. While the biographical details of his life, including birth and death, may be obscure, Fowler's literary output reflects the values of an age grappling with the social consequences of addictive substances. His book, deeply entrenched within the didactic and reformative literary style of the time, not only dissects the deleterious effects of tobacco use but also calls for urgent reform, appealing to the readers' sense of duty and morality. Fowler's work is an artifact of its time, embodying the societal push towards health consciousness and moral improvement that were hallmarks of his era's progressive movements.
