Book Overview
""The Comic Spirit in George Meredith: An Interpretation"" is a literary analysis of the works of British novelist and poet George Meredith, written by Joseph Warren Beach and originally published in 1911. The book examines Meredith's use of humor and satire in his writing, with a focus on his novels and essays. Beach argues that Meredith's use of the comic spirit is a deliberate and effective tool for exploring serious themes and ideas, such as the nature of love, the role of women in society, and the struggle for individual freedom. The book provides a detailed analysis of Meredith's style and themes, as well as his influence on other writers of his time. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of 19th-century literature and the history of humor in literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
