Lord Ormont and His Aminta is a novel written by George Meredith. The story revolves around the character of Lord Ormont, a wealthy and powerful man, who falls in love with a young woman named Aminta. Aminta is a beautiful and intelligent woman who captures Lord Ormont's heart with her wit and charm. However, their relationship is not without its challenges. Lord Ormont's past is shrouded in mystery and Aminta's family disapproves of their union. The novel explores the themes of love, power, and social status, as the characters navigate their way through the complexities of their relationship. Meredith's writing is known for its poetic language and vivid imagery, making Lord Ormont and His Aminta a timeless classic in English literature.Farrell might pass; Aminta was debated. This female Christian name had a foreign twang; it gave dissatisfaction. Boy after boy had a try at it, with the same effect: they could not speak the name without a pursing of the mouth and a puckering of the nose, beastly to see, as one little fellow reminded them on a day when Matey was in more than common favour.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
