Stefan Zweig is a classic of Austrian literature, the author of magnificent psychological novellas and fictionalized biographies translated into all languages of the world. His biographies combine the artistic beauty of style and the fidelity to history. This edition includes fascinating biographies of three writers who, according to the author, are "the only great novelists of the nineteenth century" - Balzac, Dickens, and Dostoevsky. Explaining his choice, Zweig writes: "A novelist in the last and highest sense is only an encyclopedic genius, an all-encompassing artist who... builds a whole cosmos and opposes the earthly world with his own world with its own types, its own laws of gravity, and its own starry sky... Each of these artists, in the abundance of the characters created by him, represents a certain life feeling, a certain law of life, so unified and complete that it becomes a new form of the world." The book also includes the famous essay about the life of the great humanist of the Renaissance era, Erasmus of Rotterdam.
