Robert Macfarlane

Forfatterbiografi

Robert Macfarlane (født 15. august 1976) er en britisk forfatter, kritiker og natur- og rejseformidler med særlig fokus på landskab, sprog og menneskets forhold til naturen. Han er kendt for at skrive litterær sakprosa, hvor vandringer, geografi og naturfænomener får karakter af langsomme, sanselige undersøgelser af kulturarv og erindring. Macfarlane har etableret sig som en væsentlig stemme i den moderne miljø- og stedbaserede litteratur og bevæger sig ofte i krydsfeltet mellem videnskabelig nysgerrighed og fortællekunst. Hans mest omtalte værker omfatter trilogien om landskab og menneskesind, herunder Mountains of the Mind, The Wild Places og The Old Ways. Underland (på dansk udgivet som Im Unterland) er en dybtidsskildring af jordens skjulte verdener og mytiske underjorder, der også er blevet fremhævet for sin evne til at samle geologi, fortælling og naturkultur i én form. Macfarlane har modtaget flere anerkendelser, herunder E. M. Forster Award for Literature (2017) fra American Academy of Arts and Letters. Underland blev desuden belønnet med National Outdoor Book Award i 2019. Han er også medlem af Royal Society of Literature og er tilknyttet Cambridge som professor.
