Extractions: In 1851 he met Charles Dickens and they soon became friends. They travelled together in the UK and in France and Collins published his stories in Dickens' Household Words. They also shared a fascination for theatre and in 1855 Collins' play "The Lighthouse" was staged by Dickens' theatre group, followed in 1857 by "The Frozen Deep". Later that year "The Lighthouse" was staged at the Olympia Theatre. In 1871 "The Woman in White" could be seen at the same theatre and in 1879 Ada Cavendish played "Miss Gwilt" in New York (Miss Lydia Gwilt was one of the main characters of "Armadale"). Collins' most famous novel, "The Moonstone" (1868) is regarded as the first real British detective novel. Before that "The Woman in White" (1860) had already been a huge succes. In his later books he paid more attention to social issues like separations (in "Man and Wife") and vivisection (in "Heart and Science", 1883). The unconventional Collins never married, but lived for many years with Caroline Graves and had three children with Martha Rudd. He was a very famous man in his days but often suffered from poor health. In July, 1889, The Times wrote that Queen Victoria 'had made special inquiries as to his health". Collins died in September of that year and was buried according to his explicite wishes in a simple grave at Kensal Green Cemetery in London.

http://www.epdlp.com/collins.html

Extractions: E scritor inglés a quien se atribuye la creación de la novela de detectives. Nació en Londres. Se dedicó a escribir después de haberle ido mal tanto en los negocios como en la abogacía. En 1851 comenzó una fructífera colaboración con Charles Dickens, con el que escribió la novela No Thoroughfare (1867). Su novela de misterio La dama vestida de blanco (1860) y la de detectives La piedra lunar (1868), que apareció por primera vez en revistas dirigidas por Dickens, están consideradas obras maestras en sus respectivos géneros. Aunque en ambas se da más importancia a la construcción de una trama diseñada para confundir al lector, los personajes son también importantes. El retrato realista del sargento Cuff en La piedra lunar constituye la primera exposición en la narrativa inglesa de un detective en su trabajo. Además, Collins escribió notas de viajes, el romance histórico Antonina o la caída de Roma (1850), los cuentos de fantasmas de Al caer la noche (1856) y las novelas Sin nombre (1862) y Armadale (1866). Su última obra aborda problemas sociales, mezclando elementos de misterio con melodrama. El escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges fue quien rescató del olvido la obra de Collins, considerándolo como una de sus mayores influencias literarias. ©

Wilkie was first found a place in the tea trade, but displayed no aptitude for commerce. He then studied law at Lincoln's Inn, he was admitted to the bar in 1851 but didn't prosper here either. It was only when he started writing that he seemed to find his vocation. His first published work was written in memory of his father, who died in 1847. Memoirs of the Life of William Collins, Esq., R.A. was published in 1848. He started writing fiction shortly afterwards. Antonina was published in 1850 and Basil in 1852. In April 1852 Wilkie wrote a piece for Charles Dickens' weekly: Household Words . This marked the start of a professional relationship which was to last for ten years, and which left both men better writers for their aqaintence. Wilkie was immensely popular in his time, and wrote 25 novels and over 50 short stories. His most successful works were
