作者简介
Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936) was a prolific English writer, poet, philosopher, dramatist, journalist, orator, literary and art critic, biographer, and Christian apologist. A towering figure of early 20th-century literature, he is best known for his distinctive style, characterized by wit, paradox, and a jovial defiance of conventional wisdom. Chesterton's writing career spanned many genres, but he is perhaps most revered for his Christian apologetics, among which 'Orthodoxy' (1908), a spirited defense of Christian belief, remains a seminal work. In 'Orthodoxy', Chesterton outlined his journey from skepticism to faith, as well as articulating a philosophy that celebrated the rationality and mystery of Christianity. Beyond 'Orthodoxy', he is also famous for his Father Brown mystery series, which infused the detective genre with philosophical and theological depth. Chesterton's influence extends through various literary circles and his works continue to be studied for their imaginative vigor and intellectual playfulness. His ability to combine serious ideological discourse with engaging storytelling resonates with readers and scholars alike. A man of imposing physical stature with a prolific output, Chesterton's legacy includes over 80 books, several hundred poems, 200 short stories, 4000 essays, and several plays.
