Ambrose Gwinett Bierce Ambrose Gwinett Bierce Journaliste américain, écrivain auteur de nouvelles et humoriste satirique. Il fut très marqué par la guerre de Sécession au cours de laquelle il se distingua dans les rangs de l'Union. Il collabora au News Letter de San Francisco avant de partir en 1872, pendant quatre ans, à Londres où il fut rédacteur du Fun. Il fut l'ami de Marck Twain. Avec beaucoup d'humour noir et un style caustique, il s'attaqua aux valeurs établies, au raisonnable et à la religion. Ses contes macabres et ses nouvelles satiriques et terrifiantes gardent la trace de son vécu de la guerre dont il dépeint les combats avec un très grand réalisme, presque insoutenable. Il fut à l'avant garde de l'art de la nouvelle aux Etats-Unis. Séduit par la révolution mexicaine, il s'engagea, à l'âge de 71 ans, au coté de Pancho Villa et disparu mystérieusement dans un combat en 1914. Quelques œuvres : Histoires impossibles (1891), Histoires de soldats et de civiles (1891), Au cœur de la vie (1891), De telles choses peuvent-elles arriver? (1893), Comtes fantastiques (1899), Dictionnaire du Diable (1906), Œuvres complètes (1909 à 1912) Liens: Un maître de l'humour noir et de l'étrange The Ambrose Bierce Site (en anglais) "Archevêque : dignitaire ecclésiastique plus sacré d'un cran qu'un évêque."

Bierce - Èapkùv pøedchùdce? (pagi) Ambrose Gwinett Bierce Ambrose Gwinett Bierce se narodil 24. èervna roku 1842 ve státì Ohio ve velmi svérázné rodinì. Ambroseho sourozenci se jmenovali Abigail, Amelia, Ann-Maria, Addison, Aurelius, Augustus, Almeda, Andrew, Albert, desátým byl sám Ambrose, a po nìm následovali ještì Arthur a dvojèata Adelia a Aurelia (tato trojice zemøela v útlém vìku). Stejnì pozoruhodná byla i výchova, kterou praktikovala jeho matka - prý v jedné ruce držela bibli a v druhé metlièku. Nebylo divu, že Ambrose na výchovu a vlastnì i na celou rodinu nemìl moc pøíjemné vzpomínky. Však se také v patnácti odstìhoval do Varšavy - tedy do amerického mìsta Warsaw. Tam se uchytil jako pomocník redaktora èasopisu Northern Indianian a - podobnì jako Mark Twain - zde nasákl novinaøinou, ostrým vnímavým pohledem na spoleènost a nekompromisním prosazováním spravedlnosti. Jeho strýc Lucius Verus (skuteènì rodová záliba v kuriózních køestních jménech, že?), vlivný generál, ho pøimìl ke studiu na vojenské škole v Kentucky. Když zaèala válka Severu proti Jihu, Ambrose se pøihlásil jako dobrovolník do severní armády, kde sloužil od roku 1861 až do ledna 1865.
