Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, 18th Baron of Dunsany 1878-1957 was an Anglo-Irish writer and dramatist, notable for his work in fantasy published under the name Lord Dunsany. He was a prolific writer, penning short stories, novels, plays, poetry, essays and autobiography, and publishing over sixty books, not including individual plays. The stories in his first two books, and perhaps the beginning of his third, were set within an invented world, Pegana, with its own gods, history and geography. He was initially an Associate Member of the Irish Academy of Letters, and later a full member. He received an honorary doctorate from Trinity College Dublin. His works include The Gods of Pegana 1905 , Time and the Gods 1906 , The Sword of Welleran and Other Stories 1908 , A Dreamers Tales 1910 , The Book of Wonder 1912 , Fifty-One Tales 1915 , The Last Book of Wonder 1916 , Tales of Three Hemispheres 1919 , The Man Who Ate the Phoenix 1949 , and The Little Tales of Smethers and Other Stories 1952 .
