Sir Leslie Stephen war ein englischer Autor, Kritiker und Bergsteiger, dessen Essays in die Tiefen der viktorianischen Gesellschaft und des intellektuellen Lebens vordrangen.

Sein Stil, der sich durch scharfen Intellekt und überzeugende Argumentation auszeichnete, bot den Lesern einen tiefen Einblick in die Komplexität der menschlichen Existenz und gesellschaftlicher Normen.
