Autorenporträt
George Meredith was an English novelist and poet, born on February 12, 1828. Meredith was born to Thomas Meredith and Jane Cholmeley. He was a prominent figure in the Victorian era, initially known for his poetry, which was heavily influenced by poets like John Keats. Over time, Meredith transitioned into novel writing and became recognized for his works in this genre. His novel The Ordeal of Richard Feverel (1859) caused a stir in Victorian literary circles due to its controversial themes. However, it was his later novels, such as The Egoist (1879) and Diana of the Crossways (1885) that earned him enduring acclaim. His works often explored complex psychological and moral dilemmas, blending wit with serious social critique. Meredith's other notable works include The Shaving of Shagpat (1856), Farina (1857), and Evan Harrington (1861). Throughout his career, he developed a reputation for his intricate character studies and exploration of human nature. Meredith's influence extended well into the 20th century, and his work remains a key part of Victorian literature.
