Om forfatteren
George MacDonald (1824–1905), a pioneering figure within the field of fantasy literature and esteemed contemporary to the likes of Lewis Carroll and Mark Twain, has left an indelible mark on both children's and adult fiction. A Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister, MacDonald's narrative talents extend into the realm of fairy tales, imbued with a sense of spirituality and moral depth. His work often reflects his theological beliefs and the complex relationship between good and evil, a theme recurring throughout 'The Complete Works' which showcases his broad literary canon. MacDonald's influence runs deep; his thoughtful integration of fantastical elements with profound truths inspired literary giants such as C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. Lewis, in particular, regarded MacDonald as his 'master', noting that his writing baptized his imaginative reading (Lewis, 1952, "George MacDonald: An Anthology"). MacDonald's remarkable penchant for allegory and mythopoetic storytelling renders his work timeless, resonating with readers in search of narratives that transcend the mundane while offering spiritual and ethical guidance. Scholarly recognition of MacDonald's contribution to literature emphasizes not only his innovative use of the fantasy genre but also his skill in deploying it to explore complex human emotions and the quest for inner growth.
