Autoren-Porträt von William Hayley
William Hayley (1745-1820) was an English writer, poet, and biographer, best known for his close friendship with the poet William Cowper and his patronage of other literary figures. Deeply influenced by the sentimentalism of his time, his works often reflect his humanitarian interests and his concerns for social issues. Among his numerous writings, 'The Eulogies of Howard: A Vision', stands as a quintessential example of his eulogistic and visionary style, paying homage to the prison reformer John Howard. Hayley's literary style generally favored a didactic approach, as he intended his works to morally instruct and improve society. While Hayley enjoyed popularity in his early career, his reputation as a poet waned towards the end of his life and in the years following. Despite this, his role as a prominent literary figure of his time cannot be dismissed, as he played a significant part in the intellectual circles of the late 18th century, engaging with issues of imprisonment, slavery, and the rights of man, echoing the broader Enlightenment ideals. Hayley's biographical works, including his memoirs of Cowper, cemented his reputation as an earnest, if not critically acclaimed, man of letters.
