Né à Vienne en 1881, fils d’un industriel, Stefan Zweig a pu étudier en toute liberté l’histoire, les belles-lettres et la philosophie. Grand humaniste, ami de Romain Rolland, d’Émile Verhaeren et de Sigmund Freud, il a exercé son talent dans tous les genres (traductions, poèmes, romans, pièces de théâtre) mais a surtout excellé dans l’art de la nouvelle (La Confusion des sentiments, Vingt-quatre heures de la vie d’une femme), l’essai et la biographie (Marie- Antoinette, Fouché, Magellan...).
