QUE SIGNIFIE BIERCE EN ANGLAIS
Ambrose Bierce
Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce était une éditoriale américaine, une journaliste, une courte histoire, une fabuleuse et une satiriste. Il a écrit la petite histoire "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" et a compilé un lexique satirique, The Devil's Dictionary. Sa véhémence en tant que critique, son mot «Rien d'important», et la vision sardonique de la nature humaine qui a informé son travail, lui ont valu le surnom de «Bitter Bierce». En dépit de sa réputation de critique critique, Bierce était connue pour encourager les écrivains plus jeunes, dont le poète George Sterling et l'écrivain de fiction W. C. Morrow. Bierce employait un style distinctif d'écriture, surtout dans ses histoires. Son style englobe souvent un début abrupt, des images sombres, des références vagues au temps, des descriptions limitées, des événements impossibles et le thème de la guerre. En 1913, Bierce a voyagé au Mexique pour acquérir une expérience de première main de la Révolution mexicaine. En voyageant avec des troupes rebelles, il a disparu sans laisser de traces.
