In
1900, Chesterton was asked to write a few magazine articles on art
criticism, which sparked his interest in writing. He went on to become
one of the most prolific writers of all time. Chesterton's writings
displayed a wit and sense of humor that is unusual even today, while
often time making extremely serious comments on the world, government,
politics, economics, philosophy, theology, or a hundred other topics.
Chesterton
wrote 100 books, several hundred poems, 200 short stories, 4000 essays
and a few plays. He was a columnist for the Daily News, Illustrated
London News and his own paper, G.K's Weekly. He was a literary and
social critic, historian, playwright, novelist, Catholic Christian
theologian, debater and mystery writer. His most well-known character is
the priest-detective Father Brown, although arguably his most
well-known novel The Man Who Was Thursday does not concern Father Brown
at all.
