William Makepeace Thackeray

    18 luglio 1811 – 24 dicembre 1863

    William Makepeace Thackeray fu un romanziere, autore e illustratore inglese, noto soprattutto per i suoi romanzi satirici. Le sue opere esploravano spesso temi di ascesa sociale e ipocrisia nella società vittoriana, offrendo una tagliente critica della struttura di classe e delle buone maniere. Lo stile di scrittura di Thackeray è caratterizzato da arguzia, ironia e profonda intuizione psicologica nei suoi personaggi. Smascherò magistralmente le follie e le vanità dell'epoca attraverso la sua acuta osservazione della natura umana.
