EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, William Hurrell Mallock (1849-1923), a renowned English novelist and economics writer, is depicted in the prime of his career during the 1890s. Mallock's intellectual prowess and literary talent are evident in his piercing gaze and the thoughtful expression etched on his face. He wears a formal top hat, a popular accessory for men of distinction during this era, and a well-groomed moustache that adds a touch of sophistication to his appearance. Mallock was a prolific writer who made significant contributions to both literature and economics. His literary works, which include novels, short stories, and essays, explored a range of themes and genres. He is perhaps best known for his satirical novel "The New Republic," which critically examines the social and political issues of its time. In the realm of economics, Mallock was a leading figure in the marginalist school of thought. He advocated for the use of marginal analysis in economics, which focuses on the impact of small changes on economic outcomes. Mallock's economic writings, including "The Dismal Science: Being an Essay on the Nature and Importance of Economics," helped to shape the field and influenced the work of later economists. Despite his many accomplishments, Mallock remains a relatively obscure figure in both literature and economics today. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a man who was once a leading voice in both fields and serves as a reminder of the rich intellectual history of the late 19th century.
