A propos de l’auteur
Thomas Hardy (1840–1928), an eminent English novelist and poet, is renowned for his profound portrayal of the rural society and the inexorable forces of time and fate that impact human lives. Hailing from Dorset, which often served as the setting for his fictional region of Wessex, Hardy’s work encapsulates the pastoral landscape alongside the trials and tribulations of his characters. Hardy’s literary style often reflects a deep pessimism, influenced by his keen sense of the tragic aspects of human existence and his empathetic understanding of human frailty. His poetic opus, ‘The Complete Poetical Works of Thomas Hardy (Illustrated), ‘ stands as a testament to his multifaceted talent as a wordsmith and his capacity to intertwine the visual with the verbal. Hardy’s verses resonate with the themes that pervade his novels – the dichotomy of destiny and free will, the clash between the individual and society, and the enduring essence of nature. Despite having initially embarked on a career in architecture, Hardy’s literary flair prevailed, leading to the creation of classics such as ‘Tess of the d’Urbervilles’ and ‘Far from the Madding Crowd.’ Hardy’s contribution to literature has left an indelible mark, positioning him as a major figure in Victorian literature and a bridge to modernist poetry.
