Tarzan je izmišljeni lik i junak iz popularnog serijala knjiga američkoga pisca Edgara Ricea Burroughsa.
Edgar Rice Burroughs je započeo svoj književni rad 1912. godine za vrijeme nezaposlenosti. Pisao je rukom, na praznim stranicama starih pisama i bilješki papira, jer nije imalo novac za kupnju papira.
Priču o Tarzanu uspio je prodati časopisu All-Story Magazine za 700 dolara koja je postala vrlo popularna. Slijedio je niz stripova, 23 romana i igranih filmova.
Tarzan je postao jedan od najpopularnijih likova popularne kulture 20. vijeka.
Priča o Tarzanu
Pisac opisuje opisuje dječaka koji je siroče iz ranog djetinjstva, koji je izgubio roditelje. U prašumi ga pronalazi skupina gorila, kod kojih odrasčjue kao član njegove obitelji u divljini.
Pisac nikada nije bio u Africi, a informacije o tamošnjem životu se oslanjaju na bilješkama istraživača Henry Morton Stanleya (* 1841-1904) i Rudyard Kiplinga i njihovim književnim radu.
