Book Description
Excerpt from A Bibliography of the Writings in Prose and Verse of George Meredith South Africa is not the best place in the world for literary research, and for the most part this bibliography of George Meredith has been written in South Africa. The foundation was laid in London thirty years ago when the inspiration came from a reading of Diana of the Crossways shortly after it appeared in Messrs Chapman and Hall's familiar blue cloth edition. Before Diana's successor, One of Our Conquerors, was published, I had acquired and absorbed the bulk of Meredith's previous works, and I had made considerable way with my description of the Meredith books when Mr John Lane's useful bibliography was issued as an appendix to Mr Richard Le Gallienne's George Meredith: Some Characteristics. That was in 1890. In 1894 I felt England, and from then until 1900, when I returned on furlough for a few months, I occupied my leisure in "executing the parts" and maintaining a voluminous correspondence with publishers, editors, and benevolent enthusiasts, who were willing to assist me. On the return journey to South Africa the manuscript which had received some polishing in London was lost, together with the whole of my collection of Meredith's contributions to periodicals.

Book Description
George Meredith: The Life and Writing of an Alteregoist is not only a critical biography of the Victorian novelist and poet George Meredith but also a portrait of the novel in the later nineteenth century. Interweaving analysis of Meredith’s novels and poems with discussion of his life, Richard Cronin focuses primarily on the books Meredith read and wrote—arguing that novels by the end of the nineteenth century were shaped as much by the reading as by the experience of their writers. Cronin places Meredith’s novels in relation to the work of his contemporaries including Henry James, Thomas Hardy, and George Gissing. Organized thematically, the book explores Meredith’s personal side—including his hostility to biography, his origins as the son of a tailor, his marriages—as well as his reading habits, and the prose style that is the most complete expression of his strange but compelling personality.
Routledge Revivals: English Poetry in the Later Nineteenth Century (1933)
Author: B. Ifor EvansPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351386158
Category : Literary Criticism

Pages : 371
Book Description
First published in 1933, this study, which underwent revision in the 1960s, is a comprehensive survey of the verse of English nineteenth-century poets whose work appeared after 1860. A special feature is the full and critical treatment of minor writers. In no other book is their work so carefully evaluated. There is a full account of the minor Pre-Raphaelites, of James Thomson, the poet of The City of Dreadful Night, of Henley, Stevenson and George MacDonald. John Davidson is the subject of a long and revealing study. Evans suggests that poetry from the late nineteenth century is neglected in scholarly study, and that Victorian Romanticism deserves more attention than it has recently received.
