Richard Jefferies

    6 november 1848 – 14 augustus 1887

    Richard Jefferies was een productieve auteur wiens werken zich verdiepten in de natuurlijke wereld, het plattelandsleven en de landbouw van het late Victoriaanse Engeland. Zijn schrijven gaat echter verder dan pure observatie en vangt de esthetische en spirituele diepten van de menselijke ontmoeting met de natuur, wat voor hem een obsessie werd. Naast zijn realisme was hij ook een visionair, die vreemde futuristische fantasieën en mystieke concepten onderzocht die nog steeds resoneren. Zijn vermogen om de schoonheid en rust van de natuurlijke wereld te articuleren, van de subtiele details van flora en fauna tot de uitgestrekte ruimte van de kosmos, heeft een onuitwisbare indruk achtergelaten in de literatuur en toekomstige generaties schrijvers geïnspireerd met zijn unieke gevoeligheid en diepe innerlijke ontwaken.
