Quelques mots sur l'auteur
Rafael Sabatini (1875-1950) was an Italian-English writer famed for his riveting historical novels, which often featured larger-than-life figures set against the backdrop of the 17th to 19th centuries. Born in Jesi, Italy, to an English mother and Italian father, Sabatini was a consummate polyglot, possessing fluency in six languages. This linguistic prowess enriched his narrative style, allowing him to imbue his prose with an authentic European sensibility. After relocating to England in his teens, Sabatini found his passion for writing and historical research. He first gained widespread attention with 'Scaramouche' (1921) but solidified his reputation as a master storyteller with the publication of 'Captain Blood' (1922), a swashbuckling tale that follows the exploits of the titular character—a physician turned pirate. The novel, which unfolds against the tumultuous backdrop of the Monmouth Rebellion in 17th-century England and the buccaneering era of the Caribbean, is emblematic of Sabatini's intricate plotting, robust characterizations, and keen sense of historical detail. 'Captain Blood' remains a testament to his talent for weaving adventure with a deep understanding of historical events. Sabatini's contributions to historical fiction set a benchmark for the genre, and his work continues to be celebrated for its vivid storytelling and enduring appeal.
