Autorenporträt

Francis Marion Crawford, commonly known as F. Marion Crawford (1854-1909), was an American writer noted for his many novels, especially those set in Italy, and his classic works in the supernatural and horror genres. Crawford was born to a cosmopolitan and artistic family, which undoubtedly influenced his decision to pursue a life of literature and travel. His education spanned continents, from America to India, and finally to Europe, where he attended the University of Rome. Crawford's deep appreciation for Italy's culture, history, and landscapes is vividly apparent in his work 'Ave Roma Immortalis' (1898), where he explores the eternal city of Rome with historical and cultural insights that attracted a broad readership during his time. This particular book is considered one of his masterpieces and contributes significantly to the narrative of Western civilization and its literary portrayal. Known for his rich prose and vivid storytelling, Crawford was a prolific writer, and his literary style was heavily influenced by his travel experiences and extensive historical knowledge. He also displayed a unique ability to blend genres, with a talent for infusing his tales of romance with supernatural elements. While his name may not be as widely recognized today, Crawford was immensely popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with a literary output that left a lasting mark on the fields of historical and genre literature.
