Ursula K. Le Guin

Ursula K. Le Guin ist eine hoch angesehene amerikanische Autorin, die vor allem für ihre Werke in den Genres Science-Fiction, Fantasy und Kinderliteratur bekannt ist. Sie hat 22 Romane, 11 Kurzgeschichten-Sammlungen, 4 Essay-Bände, 12 Kinderbücher, 6 Gedichtbände und 4 Übersetzungen veröffentlicht und erhielt für ihr Werk zahlreiche Auszeichnungen, darunter Hugo, Nebula, National Book Award, PEN-Malamud und viele mehr. Le Guins Schreibstil zeichnet sich durch die Erkundung alternativer Realitäten aus, wobei sie insbesondere Geschlechter, Religion und Sexualität thematisiert.

Die Erziehung und Ausbildung von Le Guin haben ihren Schreibstil stark beeinflusst. Sie wurde in Berkeley, Kalifornien, als Tochter des Anthropologen Alfred Kroeber und der Schriftstellerin Theodora Kroeber geboren und wuchs in einem Haushalt auf, der kulturelle Vielfalt und intellektuelle Neugier schätzte. Diese Prägung spiegelt sich in ihrer Arbeit wider, die oft komplexe, eingebildete Gesellschaften und Kulturen aufweist. Der Einfluss der Anthropologie ist insbesondere in ihrer Hainish-Saga offensichtlich, einer Reihe von Science-Fiction-Romanen, die die Erfahrung eines Anthropologen beim Eintauchen in neue und fremde Kulturen verfolgen.

Le Guins Schreiben hat einen tiefgreifenden Einfluss auf die Genres Science-Fiction und Fantasy ausgeübt und beeinflusste zahlreiche bekannte Autoren, wie Salman Rushdie, David Mitchell, Neil Gaiman und Iain Banks. Ihre Arbeit wird für ihre einfallsreiche Weltgestaltung, nuancierten Charaktere und die Erforschung komplexer Themen gelobt. 2014 wurde Le Guin mit der National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters ausgezeichnet, um ihre bedeutenden Beiträge zur Literatur zu würdigen. Sie lebte in Portland, Oregon, bis zu ihrem Tod im Jahr 2018.
