Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) was an English writer, poet, philosopher, dramatist, journalist, orator, lay theologian, biographer, and literary and art critic. He is often referred to as the "prince of paradox". Chesterton is best known for his fictional priest-detective Father Brown, but also for his reasoned apologetics.
