مصنف کے بارے میں
Baroness Emma Orczy, also known as Emmuska Orczy, was an eminent writer of the early 20th century, born in Tarnaörs, Hungary on September 23, 1865, and best known for her classic adventure novel 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' (1905). She moved to London with her family in 1880, where she attended the West London School of Art and later the Heatherley School of Fine Art. Initially aspiring to be a painter, her focus shifted to writing after her marriage to Montagu Barstow in 1894. The success of 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' allowed her to pursue a career as a full-time writer. This novel, set during the tumultuous period of the French Revolution, introduced the archetype of the masked hero who leads a double life, a precursor to characters like Zorro and Batman. The book's blend of adventure, romance, and heroism struck a chord with readers worldwide and spawned a series of sequels featuring the cunning Sir Percy Blakeney. Orczy's contribution to literature extends beyond 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' with other detective stories, romances, and plays. Her elegant prose and intricate plots enriched the genre of historical fiction and adventure literature. Baroness Orczy passed away on November 12, 1947, but her legacy endures through her novels, which continue to captivate readers with their portrayal of courage, honour, and the quest for justice.
