The Poetical Works of George Meredith


Book Description

The poems are the texts used in the Memorial Edition of Meredith's works. The 'early' poems were primarily written in or about 1849, when the poet was twenty-one years old. Meredith was a poet/novelist, but his poetry follows the same course of development as his novels, moving from early examinations of the self in society to a later concern with broader social issues and defiance of the conventions of the form. Meredith explored new meters and stanzaic forms and experimented dramatically with syntax and grammar. His poetry has been described as verbally dense, allusive, and metaphorical, and in many ways reflective of the late nineteenth-century inclination toward aesthetic artifice.
