Stephen Vincent Benét

    Stephen Vincent Benét bol všestranný americký autor, známy svojimi románmi, poviedkami, scenármi a básňami. Jeho najznámejším dielom je epická báseň "John Brown's Body", ktorá majstrovsky prelína historické a fiktívne postavy, aby opísala kľúčové udalosti americkej občianskej vojny. Ďalšie významné dielo "Western Star" bol nedokončený epos o americkej histórii. Benétove diela často skúmajú témy americkej identity, histórie a jej vykúpenia.
