Giới thiệu tác giả
Henry Blake Fuller (1857–1929) was a distinguished American novelist and a noteworthy figure in the Chicago literary renaissance of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born on January 9, 1857, in Chicago, Fuller began his writing career with travel pieces but soon transitioned to fiction. 'With the Procession' (1895), one of his well-regarded works, delves into the social strata and dynamics of Chicago society, providing insightful commentary on the Gilded Age with a level of realism that predated the work of later writers such as Theodore Dreiser. Fuller's narrative style blends sharp social observation with a deft satirical edge, often critiquing the class-consciousness and materialism of the urban milieu. Fuller's earlier novels like 'The Chevalier of Pensieri-Vani' (1890) had reflected more romantic themes, but his shift towards social realism marked a significant development in his literary style and in American realism. Despite his impact, Fuller remained a somewhat obscure literary figure, overshadowed by contemporaries. Nonetheless, his contributions to American literature, particularly his incisive analysis of the urban experience and the complexities of social mobility, remain influential. His depictions in 'With the Procession' have made it a critical resource for understanding the societal constructs of Chicago and, by extension, America during a transformative historical period.
