George Meredith
Author Code: EGME
|  |
Born: Feb. 12, 1828 - Portsmouth, Hampshire, England Died: May 18, 1909 - Box Hill, Surrey, England
|
Educated at the Moravian School at Neuwied in Germany, Meredith served an apprenticeship to a London solicitor where he came into contact with many literary figures of the time. His literary interest stimulated by his marriage to Mary Ellen Nicolls led to his first publication, Poems, in 1851. This was followed in 1855 by The Shaving of Shagpat: An Arabian Entertainment. In 1859, he published the then very controversial The Ordeal of Richard Feverel. In 1861, his wife died and he remarried in 1864. He worked as a foreign correspondent in Italy for the Morning Post during the Austro-Prussian War in 1866. He was awarded the Order of Merit in 1905. Meredith's best-known works include Evan Harrington (1860), Emilia in England (1864) - subsequently renamed to Sandra Belloni, Rhoda Fleming (1865), The Adventures of Harry Richmond (1871), Egoist (1879), Diana of the Crossways (1885), Lord Ormont and His Aminta (1895) and The Amazing Marriage (1895). Meredith's prose works are known for their brilliant dialogues and wit. |
