Joaquin Miller

    8 september 1837 – 17 februari 1913

    Joaquin Miller was een Amerikaanse dichter, essayist en fabulist, bekend om zijn kleurrijke persoonlijkheid en zijn kenmerkende literaire stem. Zijn geschriften putten vaak inspiratie uit de thema's en legendes van het Amerikaanse Westen, waarmee hij de geest van die tijd vastlegde. Millers werk verkende de rauwe schoonheid van de natuur, het streven naar vrijheid en het ruige individualisme dat kenmerkend is voor het leven aan de grens. Door zijn poëtische taal en epische verhalen bracht hij het avontuurlijke hart en de romantische visie van het Westen tot leven voor zijn lezers.
