Patrick Howarth Books
April 25, 1916 – November 12, 2004
Patrick Howarth was an author of numerous works of history, biography, and criticism, whose radio poetry was broadcast by BBC Radio 3. His prior diplomatic career and work in public relations, alongside service in the SOE during World War II, shaped his unique perspective on the world. Howarth's broad scope and ability to communicate in five languages reflect his deep understanding of diverse cultures and historical events. His writings thus present a fascinating fusion of personal experience and intellectual depth.
Exploring the evolution of the fictional hero, this book highlights characters embodying fair play, loyalty, and fearlessness, while often appearing conformist and somewhat sexless. It traces their development from the Victorian schoolboy archetype in "Tom Brown's School Days" to the more complex secret agents of the twentieth century, exemplified by Buchan's works. Through this analysis, the book delves into the cultural values and societal expectations that shaped these iconic figures over time.
