Om forfatteren
George MacDonald (1824–1905) was a pioneering figure in the field of fantasy literature and a mentor to fellow writer Lewis Carroll. His influence can be seen in the works of later authors like C.S. Lewis, who regarded MacDonald as his spiritual master. MacDonald's writings merge his deeply held Christian beliefs with his rich imagination, resulting in narratives infused with profound allegorical elements and mythopoeic qualities. In his novel 'Malcolm' (1875), MacDonald explores themes of social injustice and redemption, following the journey of the eponymous character who is a young Scottish fisherman. This novel, along with its sequel 'The Marquis's Secret' (1877), illustrates MacDonald's skill in creating characters that are multifaceted and his ability to convey philosophical and spiritual insights through storytelling. His literary style is characterized by a blending of the fantastical and the moral, crafted in prose that is both evocative and lyrical. MacDonald's contribution to literature extends beyond his role as a storyteller; his work also includes poetry and sermons that reflect his theological insights and his capacity to address the existential questions of his time. Despite being a Victorian author, MacDonald's work has endured, continuing to resonate with and inspire readers and writers through the present day.
