За авторот
Jean Webster, born Alice Jane Chandler Webster on July 24, 1876, was a renowned American author and playwright during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She hailed from a literary background, being a grandniece of the celebrated writer Mark Twain. Webster's literary style often converged around themes of social justice, women's suffrage, and education reform, reflecting progressive ideals of her time. Her narratives frequently featured young female protagonists challenging societal norms, embodying her own feminist beliefs. Webster's education at Vassar College, where she graduated in 1901, greatly influenced her writing and activism. 'The Wheat Princess' is among her noted works, encapsulating the experiences of an American heiress embroiled in the complexities of Italian social and political life. This book, while perhaps less famous than 'Daddy-Long-Legs' or its sequel 'Dear Enemy,' showcases Webster's flair for crafting engaging and thought-provoking fiction. Tragically, Webster's life and career were cut short; she died following childbirth complications on June 11, 1916. Her contributions to literature continue to be celebrated for their wit, charm, and keen observations of turn-of-the-century America. Webster's work has been recognized for its pioneering role in the development of early 20th-century American literature, particularly in the realm of young adult fiction.
