Customer Reviews Really humourous book Nightmare Abbey is absolutely wonderful for the most part. Love Peacock has a very witty and slightly subversive take on the concept of Romanticism. His attacks on the melancholy aspects of the period are especially amusing, the owner of Nightmare Abbey who only employs servants with depressing looks, and even more depressing names is brilliantly written. The only downside to the novel is the dialogue which I found quite difficult in comparison to the main narrative, but it was definately worth the effort. One of the most humorous books ever This is easily one of the funniest books I have ever read. Two separate novels from one of the premier wits and classical scholars of the last century, both dealing with contemporary figures, mildly disguised, and contemporary issues.

Nationality: English Categories: Authors Satirists 1785 - Thomas Love Peacock was born at Weymouth, October 18, 1785. 1800 - Gained the eleventh prize for an essay on the comparative advantages of history and biography as themes of study. 1801 - At the age of sixteen Peacock moved to London, and there is evidence in his papers of his having for a time followed some mercantile occupation, the exact nature of which is unknown. He began visiting the Reading Room of the British Museum, which he frequented for many years, a diligent student of the best literature in Greek, Latin, French, and Italian. 1808 - In the autumn of 1808 he became private secretary to Sir Home Popham, commanding the fleet before Flushing. His preconceived affection for the sea did not reconcile him to nautical realities. "Writing poetry", he says, "or doing anything else that is rational, in this floating inferno, is next to a moral impossibility. I would give the world to be at home and devote the winter to the composition of a comedy". He did write prologues and addresses for dramatic performances on board the Venerable: his dramatic taste then and for nine years subsequently found expression in attempts at comedies and pieces of a still lighter class, all of which fail from lack of ease of dialogue and the over-elaboration of incident and humour.

Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help Peacock, Thomas Love (b . Oct. 18, 1785, Weymouth, Dorset, Eng.d. Jan. 23, 1866, Lower Halliford, Middlesex), English author who satirized the intellectual tendencies of his day in novels in which conversation predominates over character or plot. His best verse is interspersed in his novels. Peacock met Percy Bysshe Shelley in 1812, and the two became such close friends that Shelley made Peacock executor of his will. Peacock spent several months near the Shelleys at Great Marlow in 1817, a period of great importance to his development as a writer. The ideas that lie behind many of the witty dialogues in his books probably found their origin in the conversation of Shelley and his friends. Peacock's essay The Four Ages of Poetry (1820) provoked Shelley's famous "Defence of Poetry" (written 1821, published 1840). Peacock considered his novels to be "comic romances." Headlong Hall (1816), the first of his seven novels, already sets the pattern of all of them: characters seated at table, eating and drinking, and embarking on learned and philosophical discussions in which many common opinions of the day are criticized.

Authors A-Z Peacock Thomas Love The Novels of Thomas Love Peacock Bryan Burns June 1985 Hardcover Book Description This is the first book to offer a literary analysis of Peacock's novels, including the two ironic medieval romances "Maid Marian and" "The Misfortunes of Elphin. Other works included are" "Headlong Hall, Melincourt, Nightmare Abbey, Crotchet Castle, The Romances and" "Gryll Grange." The Letters of Thomas Love Peacock Nicholas A. Joukovsky May 2001 Hardcover Book Description Thomas Love Peacock was a lifelong and assiduous letter writer at a time when the letter was often an art-form in itself. He had a wide circle of friends and correspondents which included Shelley and many Radicals of the early nineteenth century. For the first time, this two-volume edition gathers together Peacock's extensive correspondence with scholarly annotation. Peacock's Progress: Aspects of Artistic Development in the Novels of Thomas Love Peacock Margaret McKay December 1992 Paperback Robin Hood Thomas Love Peacock Aug 2005 Hardcover Book Description This eight-volume collection reprints rare, essential nineteenth-century Robin Hood textsand in doing so re-establishes for scholars and readers a largely lost element of the remarkably rich and ever-popular myth. In particular, the nineteenth century provided some classical fictional reformulations of the outlaw saga, in which the hero and his activities were re-interpreted in ways relating to the concerns and values of the period. Robin appears, for instance, as a Gothic adventurer, a romantic hero, a lost heir, a precursor of Baden-Powell, and even as a loyal servant of parliamentary democracy in its alleged origin. The substantial novels that embody these conceptions of the outlaw are little known, and quite unavailable until now. Available as an eight-volume set or as individual volumes.
