Which entity is this text about?

Stephen Crane (November 1, 1871 - June 5, 1900) was an American poet, novelist, and short story writer. Prolific throughout his short life, he wrote notable works in the Realist tradition as well as early examples of American Naturalism and Impressionism. He is recognized by modern critics as one of the most innovative writers of his generation. The ninth surviving child of Methodist parents, Crane began writing at the age of four and had published several articles by the age of 16.

Rent on Ravensbrook had not been paid for a year. Upon returning to England, Crane secured a solicitor to act as guarantor for their debts, after which Crane and Taylor relocated to Brede Place. This manor in Sussex, which dated to the 14th century and had neither electricity nor indoor plumbing, was offered to them by friends at a modest rent. The relocation appeared to give hope to Crane, but his money problems continued. Deciding that he could no longer afford to write for American publications, he concentrated on publishing in English magazines.  Crane pushed himself to write feverishly during the first months at Brede; he told his publisher that he was "doing more work now than I have at any other period in my life". His health worsened, and by late 1899 he was asking friends about health resorts. The Monster and Other Stories was in production and War Is Kind, his second collection of poems, was published in the United States in May. None of his books after The Red Badge of Courage had sold well, and he bought a typewriter to spur output. Active Service, a novella based on Crane's correspondence experience, was published in October. The New York Times reviewer questioned "whether the author of 'Active Service' himself really sees anything remarkable in his newspapery hero."  In December, the couple held an elaborate Christmas party at Brede, attended by Conrad, Henry James, H. G. Wells and other friends; it lasted several days. On December 29 Crane suffered a severe pulmonary hemorrhage. In January 1900 he'd recovered sufficiently to work on a new novel, The O'Ruddy, completing 25 of the 33 chapters. Plans were made for him to travel as a correspondent to Gibraltar to write sketches from Saint Helena, the site of a Boer prison, but at the end of March and in early April he suffered two more hemorrhages. Taylor took over most of Crane's correspondence while he was ill, writing to friends for monetary aid. The couple planned to travel on the continent, but Conrad, upon visiting Crane for the last time, remarked that his friend's "wasted face was enough to tell me that it was the most forlorn of all hopes."  On May 28, the couple arrived at Badenweiler, Germany, a health spa on the edge of the Black Forest. Despite his weakened condition, Crane continued to dictate fragmentary episodes for the completion of The O'Ruddy. He died on June 5, 1900, at the age of 28. In his will he left everything to Taylor, who took his body to New Jersey for burial. Crane was interred in Evergreen Cemetery in what is now Hillside, New Jersey. CANNOTANSWER

Vilket väsen handlar den här texten om? Stephen Crane (1 november 1871 - 5 juni 1900) var en amerikansk poet, romanförfattare och novellförfattare. Prolific under hela sitt korta liv skrev han noterbara verk i den realistiska traditionen samt tidiga exempel på amerikansk naturalism och impressionism. Han erkänns av moderna kritiker som en av sin generations mest nyskapande författare. Det nionde överlevande barnet till metodistföräldrar, Crane började skriva vid fyra års ålder och hade publicerat flera artiklar vid 16 års ålder. Hyran på Ravensbrook hade inte betalats på ett år. Vid återkomsten till England säkrade Crane en advokat som skulle fungera som garant för deras skulder, varefter Crane och Taylor flyttade till Brede Place. Denna herrgård i Sussex, som daterades till 1300 - talet och som varken hade el eller VVS inomhus, erbjöds dem av vänner till en blygsam hyra. Omlokaliseringen verkade ge hopp till Crane, men hans pengaproblem fortsatte. Eftersom han bestämde sig för att han inte längre hade råd att skriva för amerikanska publikationer, koncentrerade han sig på att ge ut i engelska tidskrifter. Crane pressade sig att skriva febrilt under de första månaderna på Brede; han berättade för sin förläggare att han "gjorde mer arbete nu än jag har vid någon annan period i mitt liv". Hans hälsa försämrades, och i slutet av 1899 frågade han vänner om kurorter. Monstret och andra berättelser var i produktion och War Is Kind, hans andra diktsamling, publicerades i USA i maj. Ingen av hans böcker efter The Red Badge of Courage hade sålt bra, och han köpte en skrivmaskin för att sporra produktionen. Active Service, en romanla baserad på Cranes korrespondenserfarenhet, publicerades i oktober. The New York Times recensent ifrågasatte "om författaren av 'Active Service' själv verkligen ser något anmärkningsvärt i sin tidningshjälte." I december höll paret en utstuderad julfest på Brede, där Conrad, Henry James, H. G. Wells och andra vänner närvarade; den varade i flera dagar. Den 29 december drabbades Crane av en svår lungblödning. I januari 1900 hade han återhämtat sig tillräckligt för att kunna arbeta på en ny roman, The O'Ruddy, som fullbordade 25 av de 33 kapitlen. Planer gjordes på att han skulle resa som korrespondent till Gibraltar för att skriva skisser från Sankta Helena, platsen för ett boerfängelse, men i slutet av mars och i början av april drabbades han av ytterligare två blödningar. Taylor tog över det mesta av Cranes korrespondens medan han var sjuk, och skrev till vänner för monetär hjälp. Paret planerade att resa på kontinenten, men Conrad anmärkte, då han för sista gången besökte Crane, att hans väns "förslösade ansikte var nog för att säga mig, att det var det mest försvunna av alla förhoppningar." Den 28 maj anlände paret till Badenweiler i Tyskland, ett hälsospa i utkanten av Schwarzwald. Trots sitt försvagade tillstånd fortsatte Crane att diktera fragmentariska episoder för färdigställandet av The O'Ruddy. Han avled den 5 juni 1900 vid 28 års ålder. I sitt testamente lämnade han allt till Taylor, som tog med sig sin kropp till New Jersey för begravning. Crane var begravd på Evergreen Cemetery i det som nu är Hillside, New Jersey. CANNOTANSWER
