Anthony Trollope

    24. April 1815 – 6. Dezember 1882

    Anthony Trollope wurde zu einem der erfolgreichsten, produktivsten und angesehensten englischen Romanautoren der viktorianischen Ära. Seine beliebten Werke drehen sich oft um die fiktive Grafschaft Barsetshire und erforschen deren soziale Verflechtungen. Darüber hinaus verfasste er tiefgründige Romane, die sich mit den politischen, sozialen und geschlechtsspezifischen Themen seiner Zeit auseinandersetzten. Trollope's Schriften werden für ihren scharfen Einblick in die menschliche Natur und gesellschaftliche Dynamiken gefeiert.

      Septimus Harding, un homme doux et timide, aimé et respecté, et qui paraît incarner à lui seul toutes les qualités humaines et les vertus chrétiennes, se voit accusé d'enrichissement personnel illégal : de sa fonction de directeur d'hospice de charité il aurait fait une confortable sinécure. Quand John Bold, réformateur trop zélé, utilise la presse nationale pour l'attaquer, c'est un coup de tonnerre qui retentit dans le petit monde feutré du clergé attaché à la cathédrale de Barchester (inspirée de celle de Salisbury). Pourtant, la définition nette du bien et du mal, du coupable et de l'innocent, sera rapidement ébranlée dans ce combat qui oppose médias assoiffés de scandale et conscience morale solitaire. Premier roman de la série des "Chroniques du Barset", Le Directeur contient déjà tout ce qui fera de Trollope l'un des auteurs victoriens les plus populaires : une véritable intuition psychologique des relations de pouvoir, une écriture alerte, et une plume ironique, capable de satire parfois féroce mais aussi de tolérance amusée.

    • Harry Clavering ist vielleicht der erste wohlgeborene viktorianische Held, der sich für eine Karriere im Bauingenieurwesen entscheidet; er möchte die Welt mit Eisenbahnen und Brücken verändern. Julia Brabazon, seine erste Liebe, verlässt ihn für einen wohlhabenden, zerstreuten und decrepiten Adligen. Zwei Jahre später taucht sie als reiche junge Witwe wieder auf und zwingt Harry, zwischen den Annehmlichkeiten einer wohlhabenden Frau und dem ehrenhaften Weg, seine Verlobte Florence Burton zu heiraten und seiner erklärten Karriere nachzugehen, zu wählen. Seine Gewissenskonflikte stehen in starkem Kontrast zur emotionalen Stärke der beiden Frauen. Trollope zeigt meisterhaft Realismus und viktorianisches moralisches Empfinden, während er die Qualen der Entscheidungsfindung in Beruf und Ehe darstellt. Seit seinem ersten Erscheinen im Jahr 1867 wird dieser Roman als eine der erfolgreichsten Darstellungen des mittleren viktorianischen Lebens von Trollope gefeiert. Die Claverings ist reich an zeitgenössischen Details und zeigt, wie oft bei Trollope, die Schwäche der Männer und die emotionale Stärke der Frauen.

      Frankreich 1791: der junge Adolphe Denot hat sich in Agatha Larochejaquelin verliebt, die Tochter eines betagten Adeligen aus der Provinz. Obwohl sie freundschaftliche Gefühle für den Verehrer hegt, kann sie diese Liebe nicht erwidern. Für Denot eine unerträgliche Demütigung. Seine Liebe, die von berechnenden Momenten nie frei war, nimmt die Form einer Besessenheit an. Durch heroische Taten hofft er Agatha doch noch für sich einzunehmen. Die Bedingungen dafür scheinen günstig: In den Provinzen führen Bauern und Adelige einen verzweifelten Kampf zur Rettung des Königtums. Als chronist und Romancier des Viktorianischen Zeitalters erlagnte Anthony Trollope dauerhaften Weltruhm. In "Eine Liebe in Frankreich", seinem einzigen historischen Roman, stellt er am Beispiel mehrer Liebesbeziehungen exemplarisch dar, wie die Menschen in Krisenzeiten zerbrechen - oder über sich hinauswachsen

Arabella's determination to find a rich husband is at the heart of this story and her character, though often maligned, isone of Trollope's most famous and vivid creations.

      Always a keen traveler, Anthony Trollope toured South Africa in 1877 and provides a fascinating account of his travels around a still untamed land at a time when British rule was being challenged by the native peoples. Trollope relates an insightful history of the first Dutch and then British colonial rule imposed over the native peoples, as well as vivid descriptions of the people, the architecture, the landscape and the sights and sounds of late 19th-century South Africa. It is in his dealings with the natives that Trollope is at his most fascinating and unusually perceptive. His own views reflect the common opinion of the day that colonial rule could only improve their lives, but at the same time gives an insight into the negative effects of colonialism on the natives and the grievances it created. South Africa is an unrivalled account of the land and all its people by a master writer, and is a fascinating description of a small but vital part of the British Empire during its prime.

Instead he depicts Margaret Mackenzie, overwhelmed with money troubles, as she tries to assess the worth and motives of four very different suitors.

    • Román anglického klasika 2. poloviny 19. století je zdánlivě idylickou, humornou burleskou z anglického maloměsta. Dějově jednoduchá kronika katedrálního městečka oplývá množstvím nejrůznějších postav a těží z prosté zápletky. Město stojí před nastolením nového biskupa, který přijíždí se svou ženou a mladým kaplanem a ti více než sám biskup pomýšlejí na ovládnutí celé diecéze pro své zájmy. Síly měří ve sporu o nového kandidáta na místo správce místního chudobince a pomocí četných intrik vítězí v tomto boji biskupova manželka. Zdánlivě malicherné maloměstské spory podávají obraz jednoho z důležitých problémů viktoriánské éry-procesu zesvětštění církve, který se dotýká nejen společenského, ale i soukromého života.

    • This is Trollope's eightieth tale. Though it is the work of an older man, it is perhaps the brightest and freshest novel he ever wrote. The story of a young woman forced to choose a husband from among three unsavory men, the novel is remarkable for its wealth of minor characters and itromantic exuberance.

    • Anthony Trollope's stock-in-trade was the life of the great drawing rooms of mid-Victorian England, where the thirst for wealth and political power and the need for love continually formed and reformed in unexpected, illuminating combinations. Can You Forgive Her?, the story of Alice Vavasor, her conundrums in love, and her confusions about the rights and duties of a modern, is the first novel in his magnificent Palliser series; it is energized on every page by the affectionate and ironicdelight Trollope felt in observing the entanglements of his splendid characters.
