Richard Garnett (1835-1906) was an English librarian, biographer, writer and poet. His literary works include numerous translations from Greek, German, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese; several books of verse; the book of short stories The Twilight of the Gods and Other Tales (1888, 16 stories; 12 stories added in the 1903 edition); biographies of Thomas Carlyle, John Milton, William Blake, and others; The Age of Dryden (1895); Essays of an Ex-Librarian (1901); a History of Italian Literature; English Literature: An Illustrated Record (with Edmund Gosse); and many articles for encyclopaedias, including the ninth and tenth editions of the Encyclopædia Britannica, and the Dictionary of National Biography.
From Garnett's collection The Twilight of the Gods we have selected for our readers The Poet of Panopolis, a short but intense historical novel focused on the life and figure of Nonnus of Panopolis, one of the most notable Greek epic poets of the Imperial Roman era.
The Twilight of the Gods and Other Tales is a collection of fantasy short stories generally considered a classic in the genre.
