作者简介
Henry Lawson (1867-1922) was an emblematic Australian writer and poet, whose work keenly reflected the experiences, struggles, and idiosyncrasies of life in the Australian bush. His distinct literary voice emerged during a period when the nation sought to articulate its own identity, separate from its colonial ties to Britain. Born on June 17, 1867, in a gold-mining town in rural New South Wales, Lawson's formative years were marked by poverty, a situation that vastly influenced his later writing. Despite his challenging upbringing and lifelong hearing impairment, he pursued literature voraciously. Lawson is celebrated for his short stories and ballad-form poems, which frequently highlighted the harsh realities of the working class and the bleakness of the outback, albeit not without a characteristic dry wit and egalitarian spirit. His collection 'Verses Popular and Humorous' is a testament to Lawson's ability to weave humor into the stark fabric of Australian life, capturing both the vernacular and the psyche of the common man. Beyond this work, stories such as 'The Drover's Wife' and poems like 'Past Carin'' are often cited for their influence on Australia's literary heritage. Lawson's approach—realist, engaging, with an undercurrent of social critique—secured his place as a foundational figure in Australian literature. His death on September 2, 1922, marked the end of a life that was as tumultuous as it was influential. Lawson's legacy endures, with his face emblazoned on the Australian ten-dollar note, and his stories cherished as national treasures.
