Many wealthy tradesmen possess villas far more pretentious on the outskirts of Paris or of London. But the charm of Flint Cottage lies in its absolute simplicity. The little house, where Meredith had lived for forty years, is situated half-way up a slope which inclines slowly firs little towards a wood of ; a garden, admirably kept, surrounds it. When I entered the garden, the convolvuluses were more than half-closed and the first drops of rain fell noiselessly upon the grassy hill-side. It autumn and the slopes of the was ; day 2 GEORGE MEREDITH was calm and fresh. A light breeze just swayed the leaves of the lime trees and the elms, which had begun to turn colour. The blackberries were already laurel ripe upon the brambles ; and from the hedges exhaled a bitter odour. -
An Unpublished Short Story by George Meredith: "The Friend Ofan Engaged Couple"
SYDNEY STUDIES An Unpublished Short Story by George Meredith: "The Friend ofan Engaged Couple" MARGARET HARRIS Putting into print something long unpublished invites the rebuke that the thing was best left alone. It might be alleged that such a rebuke is warranted in respect ofMeredith's short story, "The Friend of an Engaged Couple,"1 which is undeniably slight. However, it was written at a time of great activity in Meredith's career - the manu script is dated 1862 - and has connections with his other work at the time. Moreover, it appears that Samuel Lucas, editor of Once a Week, saw sufficient merit in the piece to accept it for publication, ifa pencilled "Yes. S.L." on the first page of the manuscript can be assumed to be Lucas' note. 2 But the story did not come out in Once a Week, perhaps because Lucas would not accommodate Meredith's requests for a generous rate of payment.3 Meredith in the early 1860s was more than usually pressed for money. His career as a man ofletters had by no means been securely established by the appearance of Poems (1851), The Shaving of Shagpat (1856), and Farina (1857). Paradoxically, however, the emotional turmoil consequent on his being deserted by his wife Mary Ellen in 1857, and her death in 1861, generated two of his finest works, The Ordeal ofRichard Feverel (1859) and the poem sequence Modern Love (1862). It might even be suggested that the deception about a love affair in "The Friend ofan Engaged Couple" has some relation to Mary Ellen's desertion of Meredith. -

<H1>Mastery of Self by Frank Channing Haddock
Mastery of Self by Frank Channing Haddock Mastery of Self by Frank Channing Haddock Robert Rowe, Charles Franks and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team. Mastery of Self for Wealth Power Success by Frank Channing Haddock, M. S., Ph. D. PART 21 POWER FOR SUCCESS WHAT THIS BOOK TEACHES This book brings to a close that portion of MASTERY OF SELF, which deals with the art of Success-Magnetism. Acquiring magnetism is a constructive effort. It is a building process. You are rearing a structure. You rise, from the page 1 / 115 foundation, through successive stories to the culminating peak. The most pleasing, notable structures men build from granite and steel and wood, tower like a Woolworth Building or a Rheims Cathedral--higher and higher, until they finally reach a gold- tipped crown or spire, high in the sunlit sky. And so, in rearing your invisible shrine of personal Success- magnetism, we now come to the topmost peak of the structure. This book gives you the crowning inspirations, tipped and topped with the final "Golden Laws of Magnetism in all Applied Life." Master these lessons in the magnetism of success, and you will go forth upon the highways and by-ways of life, endowed with a kingly confidence in your ability to win a measure of success achieved by few. But remember--(should discouragement seek to dog your steps)-- every great structure requires the process of time. "The giant trees of California were once puny saplings. The slow lapse of time has drawn nature into their mighty hearts." Just as surely as the absorption of natural forces built the giant redwoods, just as surely can you draw upon nature for GIANT POWERS. -

Introduction The seven decades of the nineteenth century in England, from 1832 to 1901, is the Victorian Period and it is the period when the monarch Queen Victoria ruled over England (from 1837). The Victorian Period was marked by growing wealth and power, radical development in science and technology led to sweeping socio- economic changes. Victorian literature too reflects the contemporary society—the celebration of the progress and the social ills arising from rapid industrialisation. In 11 this unit thus, you will be acquainted with the various aspects of the Victorian age – its society, history and politics – before you are introduced to individual writers and their works in later modules; this will help you contextualise their works. 1.1.1.Victorian England: Historical Significance Any period, needless to say, has its own nuances, events, revolutions, discoveries, transformations, creations and typical thinkers, which gives each period its uniqueness and difference from the other epochs. Even a cursory glance on the Timeline of the Victorian period will make a reader realize that the era was rife with important socio-political- religious-economic events that gives it a historical significance. -

Edinburgh is^ London TO HIM WHO IS THE SUBJECT OF THE FOLLOWING PAGES WE MAKE THIS JOINT OFFERING IN THE HOPE THAT IT MAY SHEW US WORTHY TO BE COUNTED AMONG A CERTAIN " " ACUTE AND HONOURABLE MINORITY Pref;ace The following essays make no attempt either to " place " Mr. Meredith or to be a kind of critical microcosm of his work, nor do they presume to speak with any air of finality thereon. There are but three or four living Englishmen in whom such Olympian attitude would escape the absurd. Nor do I, on the other hand, as I have elsewhere profanely phrased it, come singing "The Mere- dithyramb." My whole attempt is that of a lover of the works to give expression to the faith that is in him, and I have written rather for those who are already spending their lives in a vain endeavour to convert masculinity to The Egoist than in the hope of being myself an instrument of conversion. If the use of writing for those who are already " in the place of hope " be questioned, one may reasonably ask if the most seductive of all literary pleasures does not consist merely in the compar- ing of impressions and sensations.
