Giới thiệu tác giả
Hugh Lofting (1886–1947) was a British author most renowned for his series of children's books featuring the character Doctor John Dolittle. Born in Maidenhead, Berkshire, England, Lofting showed creative promise at a young age, which later culminated in his engineering studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States. During World War I, while serving in the Irish Guards, Lofting conceived of the Dolittle character in letters to his children, as he sought to spare them the horrors of war. These letters laid the foundation for his first book, 'The Story of Doctor Dolittle' (1920), which gained immediate success and set the stage for his future works, including 'Doctor Dolittle's Circus' (1924). Lofting's literary style is marked by a blend of whimsy and satire, often featuring anthropomorphized animals that communicate with the gentle, nature-loving Doctor Dolittle. His narratives, while entertaining, subtly explore themes of equity, respect for all living creatures, and environmental conservation. Throughout the interwar period, Lofting continued to write and publish, contributing to a total of twelve books in the Doctor Dolittle series. His imaginative storytelling not only brought joy to children but also conveyed a sense of moral instruction and reflection on human nature. Lofting was awarded the prestigious Newbery Medal for his contribution to children's literature with 'The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle' (1922). His books have left a lasting legacy and continue to be cherished by generations of readers worldwide.
