Giới thiệu tác giả

Lafcadio Hearn (1850–1904), born Patrick Lafcadio Hearn, was a multifaceted writer of international repute, who is chiefly recognized for his significant contributions to introducing Western audiences to Japanese culture and literature at the turn of the 20th century. With a diverse heritage rooted in Greece and Ireland, Hearn's rich life experiences traversed several countries before he settled in Japan, which became the primary influence for the latter part of his career. His deeply evocative writing is characterized by its lush prose, acute observations of the macabre, and a fascination with the supernatural, all of which are expertly showcased in his book 'In Ghostly Japan' (1899). This seminal work is a collection of stories and essays reflecting his exploration of Japan's folklore, spirituality, and the ethereal aspects of its living traditions. Hearn's literary style blends narrative non-fiction with a keen anthropological eye and a touch of mysticism, making his work especially captivating for readers interested in the cross-cultural interplay between East and West. His mark on literature is not only seen through his own texts but also in his role as an educator and translator, through which he laid the foundation for the appreciation of Japanese aesthetics in the Western canon. Hearn's writings continue to be celebrated for their haunting beauty and enchanting portrayals of a Japan that straddles the boundary between the temporal and the otherworldly.
