Anthony Trollope

Anthony Trollope (1815–1882) war ein englischer Schriftsteller und leitender Postbeamter des viktorianischen Zeitalters. Bekannt ist das anglikanische Kirchenmitglied vor allem für seine Barsetshire-Romane über das Innenleben der Geistlichkeit, wobei die Literaturwissenschaft auch zeitgenössische antisemitische Stereotype in einzelnen Werken kritisiert. Für Bibelleser bieten seine Werke scharfsinnige Einsichten in menschliche Gewissenskonflikte, Heuchelei und das Ringen um ethische Integrität im Alltag.
