Angela Olive Stalker was born in Eastbourne, Sussex, England on the 8th May 1940. War had broken out in Europe and she was evacuated as a child to Yorkshire to live with her maternal grandmother, a working-class, matriarchal, domineering, feminist bread-\'n-buta granny of the north of England. Carter left school and started work at the age of nineteen for the Croydon Advertiser, following in the footsteps of her father - who was a Scottish journalist working in London. One year later she met and married Paul Carter. She was to divorce him almost twelve years after, in 1972. She studied English at the University of Bristol and built on her already vast cultural and literary baggage. Her mother was a great literary influence on her, as she devoured book after book and author after author. Her upbringing was very much based on the works of Shakespeare and great names of English literature. The influence of authors on her work is enormous and perhaps incalculable. There are references to...

Anatole France
Anatole France, pseudonym for Jacques Anatole Thibault (1844-1924), was the son of a Paris book dealer. He received a thorough classical education at the Collège Stanislas, a boys\' school in Paris, and for a while he studied at the École des Chartes. For about twenty years he held diverse positions, but he always had enough time for his own writings, especially during his period as assistant librarian at the Senate from 1876 to 1890. His literary output is vast, and though he is chiefly known as a novelist and storyteller, there is hardly a literary genre that he did not touch upon at one time or another. France is a writer in the mainstream of French classicism. His style, modelled on Voltaire and Fénélon, as well as his urbane scepticism and enlightened hedonism, continue the tradition of the French eighteenth century. This outlook on life, which appears in all his works, is explicitly expressed in collection of aphorisms, Le Jardin d\'Épicure (1895) [The Garden of...

Simone Weil
Simone Weil (3 februarie, 1909, Paris, Franța – 24 august, 1943, Ashford, Marea Britanie) a fost o scriitoare franceză, pasionată de filozofie și de mistică creștină. Simone Weil s-a născut la Paris în anul 1909 dintr-o familie de intelectuali evrei din clasa medie. A studiat la Liceul Henry al IV-lea, unde l-a avut ca profesor pe Alain Emile Chartier. Și-a continuat studiile între anii 1928-1931 la Ecolé Normale Superieure din Sorbona, unde a fost remarcată, alături de Simone de Beauvoir, ca o femeie de o rară inteligență. A parcurs un drum intelectual sinuos, fiind inițial o înfocată activistă de stânga (a lucrat ca muncitoare la Uzinele Renault), ca, mai târziu, să se apropie de mistica creștină, fără a deveni însă o creștină "de drept".Ceea ce a rămas ca o constantă în sufletul ei a fost apropierea față de cei nenorociți și marginalizați."Ori de câte ori mă gândesc la crucificarea lui Hristos, săvâșesc păcatul invidiei“, avea să scrie mai târziu în caietele sale filosofice.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Samuel Taylor "Estese" Coleridge (1772-1834) Samuel Taylor Coleridge was born in Ottery St. Mary on 21 October 1772, youngest of the ten children of John Coleridge, a minister, and Ann Bowden Coleridge. He was often bullied as a child by Frank, the next youngest, and his mother was apparently a bit distant, so it was no surprise when Col1 ran away at age seven. He was found early the next morning by a neighbor, but the events of his night outdoors frequently showed up in imagery in his poems (and his nightmares) as well as the notebooks he kept for most of his adult life. John Coleridge died in 1781, and Col was sent away to a London charity school for children of the clergy. He stayed with his maternal uncle2. Col was really quite a prodigy; he devoured books and eventually earned first place in his class. His brother Luke died in 1790 and his only sister Ann in 1791, inspiring Col to write "Monody," one of his first poems, in which he likens himself to Thomas Chatterton3. Col was...
