Jane Loudon

    Jane C. Webb Loudon è stata un'autrice inglese e una delle prime pioniere della fantascienza, scrivendo prima che il termine fosse inventato. La sua opera è stata a lungo categorizzata come narrativa gotica, fantasy o horror, eppure esplorava narrazioni fantasiose in anticipo sui tempi. Ha anche scritto i primi manuali popolari di giardinaggio, distinguendoli da testi orticoli più specializzati. Inoltre, ha contribuito alle iniziative letterarie di suo marito, John Claudius Loudon.
