Horatio Hornblower je izmišljeni lik oficira britanske Kraljevske mornarice iz doba Napoleonskih ratova, koga je stvorio britanski književnik C. S. Forester kao protagonista serije historijsko-pustolovnih romana. Hornblower se prvi put pojavio godine 1937. u romanu The Happy Return koji ga opisuje kao mladog kapetana broda na tajnoj misiji u Centralnoj Americi. Knjiga je postigla veliki uspjeh, potakla brojne nastavke, a Hornblower stekao poklonike među uglednim književnim imenima kao što su Ernest Hemingway i Winston Churchill. Forester je kasnije u svojim romanima obradio kako prošlost svog junaka, odnosno opisao kao boležljivog mornaričkog kadeta na početku Francuskih revolucionarnih ratova, ali i kako postepeno napreduje u službi te na kraju dobija admiralski čin i plemićku titulu. Horatio Hornblower se 1951. godine pojavio kao protagonist britansko-američkog filma Captain Horatio Hornblower gdje ga je tumačio Gregory Peck, odnosno britanske TV-serije Hornblower gdje ga je tumačio Ioan Gruffudd. Romani o Hornloweru su također poznati kao inspiracija za brojna popularna književna djela, kako historijsko-pustolovnog žanra (među kojima se ističe Bernard Cornwell sa serijom o Richardu Sharpeu), tako i science fictiona (gdje je najpoznatiji primjer serija o Honoru Harringtonu Davida Webera).
