Summary "George Meredith: A Study" by Hannah Lynch is a critical literary analysis written in the late 19th century. The book examines the works and impact of George Meredith, a significant but often underappreciated English novelist and poet. Lynch delves into Meredith's themes, style, and the broader recognition he deserved in the literary world, highlighting his unique contributions to English literature. The opening of the text serves as an introduction to Lynch's exploration of Meredith's literary journey, beginning with her personal connection to him and the context for her study. She shares the anecdote of being prompted to lecture on Meredith, which led her to expand her thoughts into this book. The author discusses the general public's slow recognition of Meredith's talents, contrasting him with other prominent English writers. Lynch notes that while critics have often dismissed him, his work stands apart for its depth and complexity, suggesting that readers need to engage more thoughtfully with his challenging prose. The initial chapters outline how Meredith's novels reflect profound questions about human experiences, morality, and societal norms. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
