Autorenporträt
Maturin Murray Ballou (1820 - 1895) was a notable American author, publisher, and editor with a prodigious body of work to his credit. Born in Boston, Massachusetts, M.M. Ballou was a descendant of the prominent clergyman Hosea Ballou, a founder of Universalist thought in America. Maturin produced a seminal biography of his celebrated relative, entitled 'Biography of Rev. Hosea Ballou', which remains an important source for the study of early Universalism's impact on American religious history. His literary style often manifested clarity and directness, aiming at both educating and engaging his readers about complex theological principles and his relative's influential life. In addition to biography, Ballou was well-versed in writing travelogues and novels, enriching the 19th-century literary scene with his versatile prose. Although today he may not be as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, Ballou's contributions in chronicling significant figures and movements of his time are still deemed valuable by historians and literary scholars. His work exhibits a commitment to documenting the spiritual and moral struggles of the era through both factual representation and allegorical narratives.
