Matthew Arnold

    24 december 1822 – 15 april 1888

    Matthew Arnold was een Engelse dichter, wijze schrijver en cultuurcriticus. Zijn werken verkennen vaak de complexiteit van het moderne leven en de zoektocht naar betekenis in een snel veranderende wereld. Arnold blonk uit in het vangen van de spirituele en intellectuele dilemma's van zijn tijd door middel van scherpe essays en lyrische poëzie. Zijn schrijven wordt gekenmerkt door elegantie, diepgang en een blijvende zoektocht naar begrip van de menselijke conditie.
