על המחבר
Robert Ervin Howard (1906–1936) was a prolific and seminal figure in the genre of sword and sorcery, best known for creating the character Conan the Barbarian, symbolizing the epitome of the heroic fantasy character. Born in Peaster, Texas, Howard spent most of his life in the town of Cross Plains with stints elsewhere in Texas. His writing career was both intense and tragically brief, with his work spanning a broad range of genres, but its impact on fantasy fiction remains profound. Howard wrote pulp fiction in a variety of genres, and his stories about Conan the Cimmerian are now deemed as classics of the sword and sorcery subgenre. Although 'The Cthulhu Mythos' is often associated with Howard's correspondent and friend, H.P. Lovecraft, Howard did indeed contribute to the Mythos canon. Howard's contributions, however, were less extensive and focused than Lovecraft's own. His style, marked by brisk pacing, vivid descriptions, and a penchant for the melodramatic, has garnered a fan following that has only grown since his untimely death by suicide at the age of 30. Collections of his stories continue to be published, and he has been the subject of several critical studies. His work has been adapted into films, television shows, and comic books, further cementing his legacy as a cornerstone of modern fantasy literature.
