William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-1863) was a British novelist, known for his sharp social satire and portrayal of the aristocracy and middle class in Victorian England. He studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, but did not complete his education. After dabbling in journalism and illustration, he established himself as a writer with a style marked by humor and biting criticism of social hypocrisy.

Among his most notable works is Vanity Fair (1848), a social critique novel about ambition and hypocrisy in British society. He also wrote The Memoirs of Barry Lyndon (1844), which inspired Stanley Kubrick's film, and The History of Pendennis (1848-1850), a bildungsroman with autobiographical overtones. His literary legacy positions him as one of the great writers of the 19th century.
