درباره نویسنده
George Du Maurier (1834-1896) was a Franco-British author and illustrator whose life and work offer a fascinating glimpse into the Victorian era's cultural and social dynamics. Born in Paris to a French father and an English mother, Du Maurier's bicultural background profoundly influenced his artistic and literary sensibilities. He initially pursued a career in art, studying in Paris and Antwerp before moving to London, where he became a celebrated illustrator for the satirical magazine *Punch*. His sharp wit and keen eye for social commentary made him a household name.Du Maurier's transition from illustrator to novelist came relatively late in life, but it was no less impactful. His most famous novel, *Trilby* (1894), became a cultural phenomenon, introducing the world to the character of Svengali, whose name has since entered the lexicon to describe a manipulative person. The novel's exploration of themes such as mesmerism, artistic genius, and bohemian life captivated readers and influenced contemporary writers, including Henry James and Oscar Wilde.Controversy was never far from Du Maurier's work. *Trilby* sparked debates about anti-Semitism due to its portrayal of Svengali, a Jewish character. Despite this, the novel's success was undeniable, leading to stage adaptations and even inspiring the name of the Trilby hat.Du Maurier's legacy extends beyond his literary contributions. He was the grandfather of Daphne Du Maurier, the renowned author of *Rebecca*. His work continues to be studied for its rich depiction of Victorian society, its innovative blending of art and narrative, and its enduring impact on popular culture.
