Robert Hugh Benson (Crowthorne, 1871 - Salford, 1914). Figlio dell'arciverscovo di Canterbury e fratello del prolifico scrittore Edward Frederic Benson, cresce in un contesto familiare estremamente colto. Dopo gli studi a Eton e la laurea al Trinity College di Cambridge entra a far parte della Chiesa anglicana, ma più tardi, in seguito a un cammino molto sofferto, si converte al cattolicesimo: nel 1914 viene ordinato sacerdote nella chiesa di San Silvestro a Roma. All'interno della sua produzione scritta figurano diversi saggi e romanzi storici di argomento religioso. Il padrone del mondo è la sua opera di maggior successo.

"Lord of the World" is a dystopian novel which depicts a future where religion is scorned, a one-world government has been established and euthanasia is normal. The Catholic Church can do nothing as most of the world becomes Humanistic or Pantheistic. The story follows Percy Franklin, a modest priest, who hastily becomes the Pope, and Julian Felsenburgh, a powerfully magnetic man who becomes ruler of the world."Lord of the World," first published in 1907, is unforgettable. "I advise you to read it." -Pope FrancisRobert Hugh Benson was an Anglican pastor turned Catholic priest, and a highly prolific writer. Lord of the World is among his great works, and is today as vital as it was when it was first published.
